|
Building and Running Qortal UI Server from source:
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|
Follow the steps below to download, install, build and run Qortal UI locally on Linux.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
Packages required:
|
|
- Node.js
|
|
- npm
|
|
|
|
Easiest way to install the lastest required packages on Linux is via nvm.
|
|
|
|
``` sudo apt update && sudo apt install curl -y ``` <br/>
|
|
``` sudo rm -rf ~/.nvm ``` (Only for update node version)<br/>
|
|
``` curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | bash ``` <br/>
|
|
``` source ~/.profile ``` (For Debian based distro) <br/>
|
|
``` source ~/.bashrc ``` (For Fedora / CentOS) <br/>
|
|
``` nvm ls-remote ``` (Fetch list of available versions) <br/>
|
|
``` nvm install v18.20.3 ``` (Latest LTS: Hydrogen supported by Electron V31) <br/>
|
|
``` npm --location=global install npm@10.8.1 ``` <br/>
|
|
|
|
Adding via binary package mirror will only work if you have set the package path. You can do a node or java build via ports instead by downloading ports with portsnap fetch method.
|
|
|
|
Verify your installation with ``` node --version ``` <br/>
|
|
- If you have an older installation of npm, please do not forget to update that with ``` npm update -g ```
|
|
|
|
Clone the main UI repo
|
|
- ``` git clone https://github.com/Qortal/qortal-ui.git ```
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------------------
|
|
In `qortal-ui` directory, run:
|
|
```
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build UI server and files
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
```
|
|
npm run build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Start UI Server ( preferred way )
|
|
---------------
|
|
```
|
|
npm run server &
|
|
```
|
|
The "&" at the end puts the UI server in the background.
|
|
|
|
Run UI using electron
|
|
---------------------
|
|
```
|
|
npm run start-electron
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build script (unix-like systems only)
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
To automate the above process, run ./build.sh, optionally specifying the following options:
|
|
|
|
`-s`: run UI server after completing the build<br />
|
|
`-e`: run electron server after completing the build<br />
|
|
`-w`: use 'npm run watch' instead of 'npm run build', to enable hot swapping<br />
|
|
`-h`: show help<br />
|
|
|
|
Example command to build and run the UI server:
|
|
```
|
|
./build.sh -s
|
|
```
