Build
Environments
- npm: 4.x
- node: 7.x
You should use npm v4.x because $ grand pre-build fails on v5.x.
Development
We use Webpack HMR to develop Boostnote. Running the following commands, at the top of the project directory, will start Boostnote with the default configurations.
Install the required packages using yarn.
$ yarn
Build and run.
$ yarn run dev-start
This command runs yarn run webpack and yarn run hot in parallel. It is the same as running these commands in two terminals.
The webpack will watch for code changes and then apply them automatically.
If the following error occurs: Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED, please reload Boostnote.
Notice
There are some cases where you have to refresh the app manually.
- When editing a constructor method of a component
- When adding a new css class (similar to 1: the CSS class is re-written by each component. This process occurs at the Constructor method.)
Deploy
We use Grunt to automate deployment.
You can build the program by using grunt. However, we don't recommend this because the default task includes codesign and authenticode.
So, we've prepared a separate script which just makes an executable file.
grunt pre-build
You will find the executable in the dist directory. Note, the auto updater won't work because the app isn't signed.
If you find it necessary, you can use codesign or authenticode with this executable.
