|
================
|
|
|
|
This is a react-based SDK for inserting a Matrix chat client into a web page
|
|
|
|
Getting started with the trivial example
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
1. Install or update `node.js` so that your `npm` is at least at version `2.0.0`
|
|
2. Clone the repo: `git clone https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk.git`
|
|
3. Switch to the example directory: `cd matrix-react-sdk/examples/trivial`
|
|
4. Install the prerequisites: `npm install`
|
|
5. Build the example and start a server: `npm start`
|
|
|
|
Now open http://127.0.0.1:8080/ in your browser to see your newly built
|
|
Matrix client.
|
|
|
|
Using the example app for development
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
To work on the CSS and Javascript and have the bundle files update as you
|
|
change the source files, you'll need to do two extra things:
|
|
|
|
1. Link the react sdk package into the example:
|
|
`cd matrix-react-sdk/example; npm link ..`
|
|
2. Start a watcher for the CSS files:
|
|
`cd matrix-react-sdk; npm run start:css`
|
|
|
|
Note that you may need to restart the CSS builder if you add a new file. Note
|
|
that `npm start` builds debug versions of the the javascript and CSS, which are
|
|
much larger than the production versions build by the `npm run build` commands.
