# LBRY App
|
|
|
|
A decentralized content marketplace built on top of the [lbry protocol](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry)
|
|
|
|
Check out the [release page](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-app/releases/latest) to get started.

|
## Development
|
|
|
|
This repo uses submodules, so clone it using --recursive
|
|
|
|
We do most of our development work on linux and macOS so we don't have
|
|
any instructions for creating a development setup on windows. You can
|
|
checkout out the build steps in [appveyor.yml](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-app/blob/master/appveyor.yml) and probably figure out something from there.
|
|
|
|
### Setup
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
[lbrynet library](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/blob/master/INSTALL.md) 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](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder)
|
|
to create distributable packages, which is run by calling:
|
|
|
|
`node_modules/.bin/build -p never`
