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 the lbry web ui in an Electron application.

Installing

Check out the release page to download a binary.

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.
