This is the core repository for the Cloud9 v3 SDK. The SDK allows you to run a version of Cloud9 that allows you to develop plugins and create a custom IDE based on Cloud9.
The best and easiest way to create plugins is on c9.io. Please check out this tutorial for how to get started writing plugins.
We also have a tutorial for how to get started working on the core plugins. Check out that tutorial here.
We have several documentation resources for you:
| SDK documentation | http://cloud9-sdk.readme.io/v0.1/docs |
|---|---|
| API documentation | http://docs.c9.io/api |
| User documentation | http://docs.c9.io |
Please join the mailinglist to get support or give support to the growing community of plugin developers: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/cloud9-sdk
Follow these steps to install the SDK:
git clone https://github.com/Jook3r/core.git onlineIDE
cd onlineIDE
scripts/install-sdk.sh
scripts/makestandalone.sh
To update the SDK to the latest version run:
git pull origin master
scripts/install-sdk.sh
Please note that if you are using npm version >=3 and run npm install manually, you need to run git checkout HEAD -- node_modules to restore the files deleted by npm.
Cloud9 is known to work with node versions 0.10 to 8, but Newer versions should work too.
Start the Cloud9 as follows:
node server.js
The following options can be used:
--settings Settings file to use
--help Show command line options.
-t Start in test mode
-k Kill tmux server in test mode
-b Start the bridge server - to receive commands from the cli [default: false]
-w Workspace directory
--port Port
--debug Turn debugging on
--listen IP address of the server
--readonly Run in read only mode
--packed Whether to use the packed version.
--auth Basic Auth username:password
--collab Whether to enable collab.
--no-cache Don't use the cached version of CSS
Now visit http://localhost:8181/ide.html to load Cloud9.
Run server side tests with:
npm run test
Run client side tests with:
npm run ctest
Then visit http://localhost:8181/static/test in your browser.
Happy coding, Cloud9
