JavaScript Hangman Lab

Description

You will create a CLI Hangman game. In this game, a user tries to guess a hidden phrase one letter at a time. If they guess a letter that is not in the phrase, they lose a guess. If the user uncovers the phrase before they run out of guesses, they win!

Setup

In the root directory, run the following to:

Install all the required packages

npm install

Run the test cases

npm test

Run the game

npm start

To change the hidden message, modify the value passed into the constructor in Game.js

const readline = require('readline');
const Hangman = require('./Hangman');

readline.emitKeypressEvents(process.stdin);
process.stdin.setRawMode(true);

let hangman = new Hangman("Code Differently");

Requirements

Note: Any additional functions you write should be unit tested

The user starts with 6 remaining guesses
The user guesses one letter at a time
If the user guesses a letter in the hidden message, all occurances of that letter are revealed
If the user guesses a letter not in the hidden message, they lose a remaining guess
If a user loses all their remaining guesses, they lose
If a user reveals all of the letters in the hidden message, they win!

Optional

Modify Game.js to allow the user to enter the hidden message in the terminal before the game rather than hardcoding it in the Game.js file.
Prevent the user from reguessing a letter
Improve the console output
