Running from Source
Prerequisites
- Git
- Node.js (Use Node v8 if having trouble with keytar)
- Yarn
- C++ Build Tools (Windows only, only install if having trouble with keytar)
Steps
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-app - Change directories into the downloaded folder:
cd lbry-app - Install the dependencies:
yarn - Run the app:
yarn dev
If you want to just build the app you can run yarn build. This will give you an executable inside the /dist folder. We use electron-builder to create
distributable packages.
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.
