Quickstart

All the components can be started at once by running the following script:

./start_all.sh

Note: Before first run, you need to run cd frontend; yarn install command to ensure that all dependencies get installed.

The script combines the logs from all binaries inside a single terminal so it might not be ideal for all cases, but it is convenient for quick regression testing.

Pressing Ctrl + c once stops all the processes.

The script also enables backtraces by setting RUST_BACKTRACE=1 env variable.

Starting the maker and taker daemon

The maker and taker frontend depend on the respective daemon running.

At the moment the maker daemon has to be started first:

cargo run --bin maker

Once the maker is started you can start the taker:

cargo run --bin taker

Upon startup the taker daemon will connect to the (hardcoded) maker and retrieve the current order.

Note: The sqlite databases for maker and taker are currently created in the project root.

Starting the maker and taker frontend

We use a single react project for hosting both the taker and the maker frontends. However, the development environment still needs to be start twice! Which frontend to start is configured via the APP environment variable.

cd frontend
yarn install
APP=taker yarn dev
APP=maker yarn dev

Bundling the web frontend and serving it from the respective daemon is yet to be configured. At the moment you will need a browser extension to allow CORS headers like CORS Everywhere (Firefox Extension) to use the frontends.

Linting

To run eslint, use:

cd frontend && yarn run eslint
