Getting Started

phant is a npm package, and requires the latest version of node.js.

Once you have node.js installed, you can install phant by running npm install -g phant from your favorite terminal.
Using the -g (global) flag will make the phant executable available in your PATH.

Now you can start phant:

``bash $ phant phant http server running on port 8080 phant telnet server running on port 8081`

This launches a telnet server for stream creation, and a http server for data input & output. You can now open a separate window, and you should be able to create a stream by connecting to the local telnet server.

`$ telnet localhost 8081 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. .-.._ __ / '.
