npm install
make install
make serve

This will start a web server on http://localhost:8675.

Our build process bundles up our JS, minifies our CSS, compiles our templates, and extracts locales into JS modules. To run the build process:

make build

This will generate files including:

src/media/templates.js
src/media/js/include.js
src/media/js/include.js.map
src/media/css/include.css

To package the Marketplace frontend, run:

make package

This will output a package and output to package/archives/. You can use WebIDE to install this package in the device or simulator.

Further details can be found in the Marketplace documentation.

We have an instance of a mocked version of the Marketplace API at https://flue.paas.allizom.org. Documentation can be found in marketplace-mock-api's repository.

We currently ship with an iframed version of the Marketplace frontend. It is a package that contains an iframe pointing to the Marketplace website. See more details within the iframe package directory.

A detailed guide to extracting strings and creating JS language packs is located on the wiki.

We use CasperJS to write tests.

Load http://localhost:8675/tests in your browser.

Before running the functional and UI tests, your settings_local.js should contain the same API and media URL found in settings_travis.js.

make test

casperjs test tests/ui/<PATH_TO_TEST_FILE>

If you wish to serve the Marketplace frontend with nginx, which is often useful for keeping all the Marketplace projects on the same domain, read about serving Fireplace with Nginx.
