Angles

The ANGLES Project is a research project aimed at developing a lightweight, online XML code editor, which can support teaching of text encoding as well as text encoding research projects, either by distributed research teams or at institutions without resources to purchase expensive software licenses. By combining the model of intensive code development (a.k.a. the "code sprint") with testing and feedback by domain experts gathered at nationally-recognized disciplinary conferences, the project proposes a bridge between humanities centers who have greater resources to program scholarly software and the scholars who form the core user community for such software through their teaching and research.

Documentation

Development Toolchain

Angles is based on the Ace Editor and derives its build environment from that used by the Ace development team. This means that you need the following installed before you can work on the JavaScript source code:

  • make
  • node

You also need the following Node package intalled via npm:

  • dryice

Repository Structure

This repository has the following directories:

  • build_support: scripts used during the build process
  • demo: simple demonstration page incorporating the Angles mode plugin
  • deps: dependencies for the demonstration page, including a build of ace
  • dist: the built plugin ready for distribution
  • lib: the source code of ACE as well as Angles
    • lib/ace: The source code for ACE used during the build process
    • lib/angles: The source code for the Angles plugins for ACE
  • test: any unit tests

Development should take place under lib/angles. No changes to files under lib/ace will be accepted since those are used only as reference during the build process and are not part of the final build product.

Building the Angles plugins

To build the plugins for ACE, run the following command:

% make angles

This will build everything and leave the new files in dist/.
