# LBRY App - https://lbry.tv
# LBRY App
This repo contains the UI code that powers the official LBRY desktop app, as well as lbry.tv. The LBRY app is a graphical browser for the decentralized content marketplace provided by the
[LBRY](https://lbry.com) protocol. It is essentially the

- If you want to build and launch the production app you can run `yarn build`. This will give you an executable inside the `/dist` folder. We use [electron-builder](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder) to create distributable packages.
#### Run the web app for development
`yarn dev:web`
- This uses webpack-dev-server and includes hot-reloading. If you want to debug the [web server we use in production](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-desktop/blob/master/web/index.js) you can run `yarn dev:web-server`. This starts a server at `localhost:1337` and does not include hot reloading.
#### Customize the web app
- In root directory, duplicate the .env.default file and rename it to .env then copy the code below and paste it anywhere in the .env file.
```
cp .env.defaults .env
nano .env
```
- To specify your own OG-IMAGE
You can either place a png named v2-og.png in the /custom folder or specify the OG_IMAGE_URL in .env
- To specify your own channels to be followed on first run
`AUTO_FOLLOW_URLS=lbry://@chan#123...a lbry://@chan2#456...a`
- If you want to customize the homepage content
1. add `CUSTOM_HOMEPAGE=true` to the '.env' file
2. copy `/custom/homepage.example.js` to `/custom/homepage.js` and make desired changes to `homepage.js`
- If you want up to two custom sidebar links
```
PINNED_URI_1=@someurl#2/someclaim#4
PINNED_LABEL_1=Linktext
PINNED_URI_2=$/discover?t=tag&[queryparams]
PINNED_LABEL_2=OtherLinkText
```
- Finally `NODE_ENV=production yarn compile:web` to rebuild
_Note: You don't need to edit the .env file in the /web folder - that is copied during compile._
#### Deploy the web app (_experimental_)
1. Create a server with a domain name and a reverse proxy https to port 1337.
2. Install pm2, node v10, yarn
3. Clone this repo
4. Make any customizations as above
5. Run `yarn` to install
6. Run `NODE_ENV=production yarn compile:web` to build
7. Set up pm2 to start ./web/index.js
#### Run both at the same time
Run the two commands above in separate terminal windows
```
yarn dev
// in another terminal window
yarn dev:web
```
#### Resetting your Packages
If the app isn't building, or `yarn xxx` commands aren't working you may need to just reset your `node_modules`. To do so you can run: `rm -r node_modules && yarn` or `del /s /q node_modules && yarn` on Windows.
