RevealJS Multiplex Server (Local Test Instance)

This is a local instance of the reveal/multiplex server used for testing Quarto's RevealJS multiplex feature.

Purpose

This server enables testing of the multiplex presentation feature without relying on external services. It:

• Generates tokens (secret/socketId pairs)

• Manages socket.io connections between master and client presentations

• Broadcasts presentation state changes from master to clients

Usage

The server is automatically started by Playwright's webServer configuration when running tests. It listens on http://localhost:1948 by default.

Installation

Dependencies are automatically installed by tests/integration/playwright-tests.test.ts before running Playwright tests.

Manual installation:

npm install

Running Manually

npm start

Attribution

Server code is from the reveal/multiplex repository.
