## How to setup local development
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to get started with local development is to use `docker-compose up`. This will start a postgres container, our web frontend, and an API server.
|
|
|
|
Along with docker-compose you will need to run our `pupeteer-parse` service. This service is used to
|
|
fetch web page content and relies on pupeteer and chromium which currently do not run inside of
|
|
docker.
|
|
|
|
### Running the web and API services
|
|
|
|
### 1 Start docker-compose
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/omnivore-app/omnivore
|
|
cd omnivore
|
|
docker-compose up
|
|
```
|
|
This will start postgres, initialize the database, and start the web and api services.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Open the browser
|
|
|
|
Open <http://localhost:3000> and confirm Omnivore is running
|
|
|
|
### 3. Create a test account
|
|
|
|
Omnivore uses social login for most users. But for testing there is an email + password
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
Open a browser and go to <http://localhost:3000/email-registration>
|
|
|
|
### Running the pupeteer-parse service
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install and configure Chromium
|
|
|
|
If you are using an M1 Mac:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
brew install chromium --no-quarantine
|
|
export PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD=true
|
|
export CHROMIUM_PATH=/opt/homebrew/bin/chromium
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Navigate to the service directory, setup your env file, and install dependencies
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd packages/puppeteer-parse
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
yarn
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Start the service
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
yarn start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will start the puppeteer-parse service on port 9090.
|
|
|
|
In your browser navigate to http://localhost:3000/home click the `Add Link` button and enter a URL
|
|
such as https://blog.omnivore.app/p/getting-started-with-omnivore
|
|
|
|
You should see a Chromium window open and navigate to your link. When the service is done fetching your content you will see it in your library.
