Alex Liebowitz 4958f9decf Make upgrade process better at killing old daemons 
- Manually call xdg-open instead of using shell.openItem(), which
   doesn't reliably work from the main process
 - If there's a connection error or timeout when asking the daemon
   to close, fall back on force killing

LBRY App

This is a graphical browser for the decentralized content marketplace provided by the LBRY protocol. It is essentially the lbry daemon bundled with a UI using Electron.

Installing

We provide installers for Windows, macOS, and Debian-based Linux.

Windows macOS Linux
Download Download Download

Our releases page also contains the latest release, pre-releases, and past builds.

To install from source or make changes to the application, continue reading below.

Development

This repo uses submodules, so clone it using --recursive.

Setup

The lbry daemon needs to be installed along with pyinstaller. You also need to be able to build the lbry-web-ui, so have node, webpack, etc installed.

Build

run ./build.sh

This builds the UI assets and puts them into app/dist. It also builds app/dist/lbrynet-daemon.

Run

./node_modules/.bin/electron app

Package

We use electron-builder to create distributable packages, which is run by calling:

node_modules/.bin/build -p never

Development on Windows

This project has currently only been worked on in Linux and macOS. If you are on Windows, you can checkout out the build steps in appveyor.yml and probably figure out something from there.
