# 🌎 Iceshrimp Developer Docs
|
||||
|
||||
## Nix Dev Environment
|
||||
The Iceshrimp repo comes with a Nix-based shell environment to help make development as easy as possible!
|
||||
|
||||
Please note, however, that this environment will not work on Windows outside of a WSL2 environment.
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
- Installed the [Nix Package Manager](https://nixos.org/download.html) (use the comman on their website)
|
||||
- Installed [direnv](https://direnv.net/docs/installation.html) and added its hook to your shell. (package manager)
|
||||
|
||||
Once the repo is cloned to your computer, follow these next few steps inside the Iceshrimp folder:
|
||||
|
||||
- Run `direnv allow`. This will build the environment and install all needed tools.
|
||||
- Run `install-deps`, then `prepare-config`, to install the node dependencies and prepare the needed config files.
|
||||
- In a second terminal, run `devenv up`. This will spawn a **Redis** server, a **Postgres** server, and the **Iceshrimp** server in dev mode.
|
||||
- Once you see the Iceshrimp banner printed in your second terminal, run `migrate` in the first.
|
||||
- Once migrations finish, open http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.
|
||||
- You should now see the admin user creation screen!
|
||||
|
||||
Note: When you want to restart a dev server, all you need to do is run `devenv up`, no other steps are necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
# Possible Troubles with the dev enviroment
|
||||
(this doesn't have to be done under normal conditions, this is for future reference)
|
||||
|
||||
### direnv
|
||||
If you have any trouble with `direnv allow`
|
||||
Check that the contents of `.envrc` have the same version of nix-direnv that is specified here:
|
||||
> nix-direnv under -> installation -> using direnv source url
|
||||
> https://github.com/nix-community/nix-direnv#direnv-source_url
|
||||
|
||||
there should be no errors during `direnv allow`
|
||||
|
||||
### outdated nix packages
|
||||
if `install-deps` or any subsequent command doesn't run due to versioning problems
|
||||
`flake.nix` and `flake.lock` may be outdated
|
||||
|
||||
delete `flake.lock`, or better, run `nix flake update --extra-experimental-features flakes --extra-experimental-features nix-command`
|
||||
after that, run `direnv rebuild`
|
||||
|
||||
if there are any errors, you might have to change `flake.nix`
|
||||
(because the available options can change between versions - consider getting support in [the matrix channel](https://matrix.to/#/%23iceshrimp-dev:161.rocks))
|
||||
|
||||
### after changing a node version
|
||||
in my case, i had to change the node version from 19, to 18
|
||||
|
||||
! before proceeding, make sure to delete all build artifacts!
|
||||
remove `node_modules` and `built` folders, and maybe `.devenv` and `.direnv` as well
|
||||
manually, or run `npm cache clean --force` and `pnpm cleanall`
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows Subsystem for Linux
|
||||
if `devenv up` terminates because of wrong folder permissions,
|
||||
|
||||
create the file `/etc/wsl.conf` in your distro and add
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
[automount]
|
||||
options = "metadata"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
this allows `chmod` calls to actually have an effect.
|
||||
the build scripts DO actually set the permissions, it just needs to work in wsl.
|
||||
|
||||
### devenv up
|
||||
devenv up may take a looong time. (some say this is fake news, maybe it was bad luck in my case)
|
||||
|
||||
do not get spooked by this error:
|
||||
```
|
||||
> iceshrimp@14.0.0-dev32 start /mnt/.../iceshrimp
|
||||
> pnpm --filter backend run start
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
> backend@ start /mnt/.../iceshrimp/packages/backend
|
||||
> pnpm node ./built/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1078
|
||||
throw err;
|
||||
^
|
||||
|
||||
Error: Cannot find module '/mnt/.../iceshrimp/packages/backend/built/index.js'

|

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
the script is designed to constantly try to start the server, while the build is still running.
|
||||
this just means that the build isn't finished yet.
|
||||
|
||||
at some point you should see a banner that says "Iceshrimp" in big letters -
|
||||
then you're good to go and can run `migrate` (in another terminal)!
|
||||
|
||||
if you don't see the banner,
|
||||
and it's for some reason stuck on `Finished 'build' after 917 ms` for a view minutes,
|
||||
|
||||
just leave devenv running and open another terminal in the folder
|
||||
run `migrate` and then `pnpm --filter backend run start` by yourself
|
||||
the server should start

## Nix Dev Environment
|

The Iceshrimp repo comes with a Nix-based shell environment to help make development as easy as possible!
|
||||
|
||||
Please note, however, that this environment will not work on Windows outside of a WSL2 environment.
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
- Installed the [Nix Package Manager](https://nixos.org/download.html) (use the comman on their website)
|
||||
- Installed [direnv](https://direnv.net/docs/installation.html) and added its hook to your shell. (package manager)
|
||||
- Ensured all dependencies are pulled with `git-lfs`, which also needs to be installed.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the repo is cloned to your computer, follow these next few steps inside the Iceshrimp folder:
|
||||
|

- Run `direnv allow`. This will build the environment and install all needed tools.

|
||||

|
||||
```shell

this allows `chmod` calls to actually have an effect.

the build scripts DO actually set the permissions, it just needs to work in wsl.
|
||||
|
||||
### Problems with the environment
|
||||
|
||||
We don't anticipate any problems with the environment, as it is kept stable and does not require much maintainence.
|
||||
|
||||
Nevertheless, if you do encounter nix-specific problems and are unable to solve these problems yourself, please join the [Matrix support Channel](https://matrix.to/#/%23iceshrimp-dev:161.rocks)
|
||||
and ping @Pyrox with the specific error message you encounter.
