Automated build

CI/dev build scripts

Platform-specific build scripts facilitate building Daedalus the way it is built by the IOHK CI:

• scripts/build-installer-unix.sh <DAEDALUS-VERSION> <CARDANO-BRANCH> [OPTIONS..]
  • where OS is either linux or osx
  • facilitates installer upload to S3 via --upload-s3
• scripts/build-installer-windows.bat <DAEDALUS-VERSION> <CARDANO-BRANCH>

The result can be found at:

• on OS X: ${BUILD}/installers/dist/Daedalus-installer-*.pkg
• on WIndows: ${BUILD}/installers/daedalus-*-installer.exe

One-click build-fresh-daedalus scripts

These rely on the scripts from the previous section, but also go to a certain trouble to ensure that dependencies are installed, and even check out a fresh version of Daedalus from the specifid branch.

These are intended to be used by developers in a "clean rebuild" scenario, to facilitate validation.

Dependencies:

• on OS X: git
• on Windows: Node.js, 7zip

Location:

• on OS X: https://github.com/input-output-hk/daedalus/blob/master/scripts/osx-build-fresh-daedalus.sh
• on Windows: https://github.com/input-output-hk/daedalus/blob/master/scripts/windows-build-fresh-daedalus.bat

Invocation:

{osx,windows}-build-fresh-daedalus.{sh,bat} [BRANCH] [GITHUB-USER] [OPTIONS...]

..where BRANCH defaults to the current release branch, and GITHUB-USER defaults to input-output-hk.

The remaining OPTIONS are passed as-is to the respective build scripts.

Stepwise build

Install Node.js dependencies.

$ npm install

Development

run with one command:

$ npm run dev

Or run these two commands simultaneously in different console tabs.

$ npm run hot-server
$ npm run start-hot

Note: requires a node version >= 4 and an npm version >= 3. This project defaults to 6.x

Development - with Cardano Wallet (daedalus-bridge)

Build and run daedalus-bridge using instructions in the repo

Symlink the npm package in the subfolder pos-haskell-prototype/daedalus:

• npm link (inside the daedalus sub folder of the Cardano client)
• npm link daedalus-client-api (inside this daedalus frontend app)

Run with npm run dev

Development - network options

There are four different network options you can run Deadalus in: mainnet, testnet and development (default). To set desired network option use NETWORK environment variable:

$ NETWORK=testnet npm run dev

Testing

You can run the test suite in two different modes:

One-time run: For running tests once using the application in prod mode (which is fast) instead of dev with webpack hot-reload server (which is slow).

Execute this once before running the tests (which creates the dist/bundle.js):

$ npm run build

After that, execute this to run the tests:

$ npm run test

Watch & Rerun on file changes: For development purposes run the tests continuously in watch mode which will re-run tests when source code changes.

Execute:

$ npm run hot-server

and then this:

$ npm run test-watch

You can find more details regarding tests setup within Running Deadalus acceptance tests README file.

CSS Modules

This boilerplate out of the box is configured to use css-modules.

All .css file extensions will use css-modules unless it has .global.css.

If you need global styles, stylesheets with .global.css will not go through the css-modules loader. e.g. app.global.css

Externals

If you use any 3rd party libraries which can't or won't be built with webpack, you must list them in your webpack.config.base.js：

externals: [
  // put your node 3rd party libraries which can't be built with webpack here (mysql, mongodb, and so on..)
]

For a common example, to install Bootstrap, npm i --save bootstrap and link them in the head of app.html

<link rel="stylesheet" href="../node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css" />
<link rel="image/svg+xml" href="../node_modules/bootstrap/dist/fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot" />
...

Make sure to list bootstrap in externals in webpack.config.base.js or the app won't include them in the package:

externals: ['bootstrap']

Packaging

$ npm run package

To package apps for all platforms:

$ npm run package-all

To package apps with options:

$ npm run package -- --[option]

Options

• --name, -n: Application name (default: ElectronReact)
• --version, -v: Electron version (default: latest version)
• --asar, -a: asar support (default: false)
• --icon, -i: Application icon
• --all: pack for all platforms

Use electron-packager to pack your app with --all options for darwin (osx), linux and win32 (windows) platform. After build, you will find them in release folder. Otherwise, you will only find one for your os.
