Dev Setup 🛠️

It is recommended to use node version 16.x-18.x.

Follow these steps to set up a local development environment:

  1. Run npm install to install all dependencies.
  2. Modify the request address to your own OpenIM Server IP in the following files:

    Note: You need to deploy OpenIM Server first, the default port of OpenIM Server is 10001, 10002, 10008.

    • src/config/index.ts
      export const WS_URL = "ws://your-server-ip:10001";
      export const API_URL = "http://your-server-ip:10002";
      export const USER_URL = "http://your-server-ip:10008";
  3. Run npm run dev to start the development server. Visit http://localhost:5173 to see the result. An Electron application will be launched by default.
  4. Start development! 🎉

Build 🚀

This project allows building web applications and Electron applications separately, but there will be some differences during the build process.

Web Application

  1. Replace the contents of the package_build_web.json file with package.json, removing dependencies required for Electron to run. Also, modify the build script.
  2. Run the following command to build the web application:
    npm run build
  3. The build result will be located in the dist folder.

Electron Application

  1. Replace the contents of the package_build.json file with package.json, keeping only the dependencies required for Electron to function. This significantly reduces the package size. Also, modify the packaging script.
  2. Run one of the following commands to build the Electron application:
    • macOS:
      npm run build:mac
    • Windows:
      npm run build:win
    • Linux:
      npm run build:linux
  3. The build result will be located in the package folder.
