Tabris.js Unzip Example (Worker)
An example Tabris.js app demonstrating unzipping a file using a background thread (Worker).
Run
If you haven't done so already, install the Tabris CLI on your machine:
npm i tabris-cli -g
Then in the project directory, type:
npm start
Or choose "npm: start" from the Visual Studio Code task runner to make compile errors appear in the "Problems" view.
This will start a Tabris.js code server at a free port and print its URL to the console. The app code can then be side-loaded in the developer app by entering that URL.
Alternatively you can also call the Tabris CLI directly:
tabris serve -a
This the same as running npm start. The -a switch enables automatic reload whenever a source file changes.
Test
This project includes a ESLint configuration that helps preventing common mistakes in your code. Most IDEs can display ESLint-based hints directly in the editor, but you can also run the tool explicitly via:
npm test
The initial rules defined in .eslintrc are supposed to warn against problematic patterns, but not enforce a strict code style. You may want to adjust them according to your taste.
Debugging
Android
To debug your application running on an Android device, first click the debug icon on the Visual Studio Code activity bar. This opens the debug side bar where you can launch the configuration "Debug Tabris on Android" and enter the device's IP address. More information can be found here.
iOS
On iOS, the Safari developer tools can be used for debugging.
Build
The app can be built using the online build service at tabrisjs.com or locally using Tabris.js CLI.
See Building a Tabris.js App for more information.
