Yewban

A simple frontend in Rust🦀️ for a goban (go game board).

Install

install the build tools

cargo install trunk wasm-bindgen-cli

Trunk is really amazing. At the time of writing it is recommended only in the non-stable version of the yew documentation. Trunk mentions that in the future, the wasm-bindgen-cli package will be installed as part of trunk.

install the rust wasm toolchain

rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown

Otherwise trunk build won't go through.

Development

Build

trunk build

This creates the /dist folder. Under the hood it also runs cargo build that creates the /target folder. So you can still normally use cargo's check, build or clippy for checking code.
Static files:
The folder /static and its contents are copied via trunk automatically to /dist thanks to this line in index.html:
"<link data-trunk rel="copy-dir" href="static"/>"

Build, view and rebuild code on the fly

trunk serve

Sharing the result

To cut the total size, get a clean output folder (if previous builds were made). This deletes the ./dist folder.
```
trunk clean
```
Make a new optimized build.
```
trunk build --release
```

If you want to run the html directly, for example on a different system, just launching index.html from ./dist/ won't work! If you need to use the index.html directly (for example in a link on your web), you have to change the 3 addresses for the .css, .js and .wasm inside. Otherwise by default it is searching for them in root.

But locally the simplest way is to serve the folder:

take the content of ./dist/ and serve it with any of these:
- rust tool:
```
miniserve ./dist --index index.html
```
- npm (nodejs) tool:
```
http-server ./dist
```
- usually present by default on linux (run from inside the folder):
```
python3 -m http.server
```
