Contributing

  • Install Rust, Moon and Caddy (>= 2.7).
  • Make sure you have PostgreSQL installed and running. I prefer using Docker e.g. docker run -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres -e POSTGRES_USER=postgres -e POSTGRES_DB=postgres -p 5432:5432 postgres:16-alpine
  • Run moon r transactional:build. This is a one-time operation.
  • Create the following environment file in the root of the repository:
.env
DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/postgres
APP_COMMIT_SHA=45937eded96319941d381eef9074922702b05f73
DEFAULT_TMDB_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-tmdb-access-token
DEFAULT_MAL_CLIENT_ID=your-mal-client-id
TRAKT_CLIENT_ID=your-trakt-client-id
UNKEY_API_ID=dummy-api-id
APP_VERSION=v5.2.1
  • Run the following commands in separate terminals:
cargo run
moon run frontend:dev
caddy run --config 'ci/Caddyfile'
  • The frontend will be available at http://localhost:8000.

In development, both servers are started independently running on :3000 and :5000 respectively and reverse proxied at :8000.

If you want to work on exporting, then you need to also have Minio installed and running on localhost:9000.
