# MineSeeker A real-time **1v1 multiplayer minesweeper** game played in the browser. Two players race on the same hidden minefield — uncover safe cells to score points, but hit a mine and you hand the advantage to your opponent. Games are live and synchronised instantly via a Mercure hub; no page reloads, no polling. Created by [SplendidBear](https://www.splendidbear.org). --- ## Features - **Real-time 1v1 gameplay** — moves broadcast instantly over Mercure (server-sent events) - **Guest & registered play** — jump in anonymously or create an account for stats and history - **Full authentication stack** — email/password, passkeys (WebAuthn), TOTP 2FA with backup codes - **Player profiles** — win/loss/draw stats, per-month charts, recent battle history with shareable replay links - **Profile pictures** — uploaded to MinIO object storage, thumbnails generated on-the-fly by LiipImagine - **Battle replay sharing** — share a direct link to any finished game - **Docker-ready** — single `make start-build` brings up the full production-like stack --- ## Tech stack | Layer | Technology | |---|---| | Backend | PHP 8.5, Symfony 7.4, Doctrine ORM | | Frontend | React 19, Vite, MUI, SCSS | | Database | PostgreSQL 18 | | Real-time | Mercure (built into FrankenPHP / Caddy) | | File storage | MinIO (S3-compatible) | | Image processing | LiipImagine + Flysystem | | Server | FrankenPHP (Caddy + PHP in one binary) | | Auth | Symfony Security, Scheb 2FA, web-auth/webauthn-framework | --- ## Requirements ### Bare-metal development - PHP >= 8.5 with extensions: `pdo_pgsql`, `gd`, `intl`, `zip`, `sodium` - Composer 2 - Node.js 22 + Bun - PostgreSQL 18 - Caddy with FrankenPHP and the Mercure module - MailHog (or any SMTP server on port 1025) - MinIO (listening on port 9000) ### Docker - Docker Engine 24+ - Docker Compose v2 - Bun (for building frontend assets before `make start-build`) - Composer (for `make start-build`) --- ## Installation ### 1. Clone the repository ```bash git clone https://github.com/splendidbear/mineseeker.git cd mineseeker ``` ### 2. Configure environment ```bash cp .env.dist .env ``` Edit `.env` and fill in every value. Key ones: | Variable | What to set | |---|---| | `APP_SECRET` | Random 32-byte hex: `openssl rand -hex 32` | | `POSTGRES_USER/PASSWORD/DB` | Your PostgreSQL credentials | | `MINIO_ROOT_USER/PASSWORD` | MinIO admin credentials | | `MINIO_ENDPOINT` | `http://localhost:9000` (bare-metal) | | `MINIO_PUBLIC_URL` | Public URL browsers use to reach MinIO | | `RECAPTCHA_SITE_KEY/SECRET_KEY` | Google reCAPTCHA v3 keys for your domain | | `MERCURE_JWT_SECRET` | Random secret (generated in step 3) | | `MERCURE_JWT_TOKEN` | Signed publisher JWT (generated in step 3) | | `MERCURE_SUBSCRIBER_JWT` | Signed subscriber JWT (generated in step 3) | | `MAILER_DSN` | `smtp://localhost:1025` for MailHog in dev | ### 3. Generate Mercure JWT tokens ```bash composer install make mercure-jwt ``` Copy the printed values into `.env` and into the `publisher_jwt` / `subscriber_jwt` lines of your Caddy Mercure block, then reload Caddy: ```bash sudo systemctl reload caddy ``` ### 4a. Run with Docker ```bash make start-build ``` This installs PHP dependencies, builds the frontend assets with Bun, builds the Docker image, and starts all services (`app`, `db`, `mail`, `minio`, `minio_init`). The app is available at `http://localhost:10080` (or the domain set in `APP_PUBLIC_HOSTNAME`). To apply any code changes later, run the same command again. ### 4b. Run bare-metal (development) ```bash composer install bun install bun run dev # Vite dev server with hot-reload php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate --no-interaction ``` Start MinIO and MailHog, then open the URL configured in your Caddy vhost. ### 5. MinIO bucket setup **Docker** — handled automatically on first start by the `minio_init` service. No action needed. **Bare-metal** — run once after MinIO is up: ```bash mc alias set local http://localhost:9000 $MINIO_ROOT_USER $MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD mc mb local/mineseeker echo '' | mc pipe local/mineseeker/media/.keep echo '' | mc pipe local/mineseeker/cache/.keep # Apply public-read policy for media/ and cache/ — see docker/minio-init.sh for the JSON ``` --- ## License LGPL-3.0 — see [LICENSE](LICENSE) for details. © 2026 [SplendidBear](https://www.splendidbear.org)
