Macropinna is in active development and has not yet had a first release. If you want to try it, you'll have to build from source.
This project's development environment depends on Tauri and npm:
- Tauri setup
- Tauri CLI: there are 2 ways to install the CLI, through Cargo or npm. Commands in this readme are written for a Cargo installation (e.g.
cargo tauri dev), but you can use the npm version as well.
- Tauri CLI: there are 2 ways to install the CLI, through Cargo or npm. Commands in this readme are written for a Cargo installation (e.g.
- npm setup
Platform-specific: cpal requires ALSA dev files - install libasound2-dev on Debian/Ubuntu and alsa-lib-devel on Fedora.
Now install packages for the two SvelteKit apps. From the project root:
npm i
And from /src-remote:
npm i
Finally, to build and run the project, the Tauri CLI can be run from the project root:
cargo tauri dev
Since this project depends on an extra SvelteKit project (/src-remote) which isn't managed by Tauri, you can't just keep cargo tauri dev running like a normal Tauri project. Sorry about that, working on it.
From /src-remote:
npm run build:watch
To rebuild the remote project in watch mode. In a separate terminal, you can now run
cargo tauri dev
Like normal.
I haven't tried building with any old versions of Tauri/npm/etc., but for reference:
$ cargo tauri -V
tauri-cli 1.4.0
$ rustc -V
rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23)
$ npm -v
8.19.2
$ node -v
v18.12.1
I also haven't gone out of my way to use any new features of any of the software that Macropinna depends on (which is why I'm not going to say you need these exact versions), but I can't say the same for its dependencies. So while it may build with older versions of all of the above, any "weird" build errors may be the result of incompatible versions. These will be locked down in the future.
