The Skycoin wallet ships with a web interface which can be ran from the browser and/or Electron.
The project contains both the source (src) and target (dist) files of this web interface.
The Skycoin web interface requires Node 8.10.0 or higher, together with NPM 5.6 or higher.
This project is generated using Angular CLI, therefore it is adviced to first run npm install -g @angular/cli
.
Dependencies are managed with NPM 5, to install these run npm install
.
You will only have to run this again, if any dependencies have been changed in the package-lock.json
file.
After pulling the latest code, you might first have to update your dependencies, in case someone else has updated them. You should always do this when compiling new production files:
rm -rf node_modules
npm install
This will remove the current dependencies, and install them from the package-lock.json
.
To compile new target files, you will have to run: npm run build
.
Run npm start
for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/
. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
Please note that you will most likely receive CORS errors as there's a difference between the port number of the source and destination.
As a work-around, the development server will create a proxy from http://localhost:4200/api
to http://127.0.0.1:6420/
.
You can route all calls to this address by changing the url property on the ApiService class.
Please note that at the moment the Purchase API (teller) is both offline and not supporting CORS headers.
While event.skycoin.net is not working, we will have to run the purchase API locally.
Similar as the solution for the above CORS issue, you can circumvent CORS issues by changing the url property to '/teller/'
As an Angular application, we try to follow the Angular style guide.
