For building the code on changes, use these terminal commands in the `settings` subfolder: + +``` bash +# install dependencies +make dev-setup + +# build for development +make build-js + +# build for development and watch edits +make watch-js + +# build for production with minification +make build-js-production + +# clean output files +make clean +``` + +**When making changes, also commit the compiled files!** + +We still use Handlebars templates some places in Files and Settings. We will replace these step-by-step with Vue.js, but in the meantime you need to compile them separately. + +If you don’t have Handlebars installed yet, you can do it with this terminal command: +``` +sudo npm install -g handlebars +``` + +Then inside the root folder of your local Nextcloud development installation, run this command in the terminal every time you changed a `.handlebars` file to compile it: +``` +./build/compile-handlebars-templates.sh +``` + + ### Contribution Guidelines All contributions to this repository from June, 16 2016 on are considered to be |
