User guide

You can include Marzipano in your project in two different ways:

  • Obtain the marzipano.js and marzipano.swf files from the latest release at http://www.marzipano.net and copy them into your project.

  • Install Marzipano as a dependency using the npm package manager and require it as a module.

Developer guide

This is an npm-based project. A Node.js installation is required for development. You also need a Java compiler to build the SWF file containing the Flash renderers (set 32-bit Java path in your PATH, as MXMLC does not support 64-bit Java).

Run npm install to install the dependencies. If you haven't in a while, bring them up to date with npm update.

Run npm run dev to serve this directory at http://localhost:8080. While this script is running, the demos are live-reloaded whenever the source files are edited.

Run npm run test to serve the browser-based test suite at http://localhost:7357. While this script is running, the test suite is live-reloaded whenever the source or test files are edited.

Maintainer guide

Before preparing a release, make sure there are no uncommitted changes. Create a new commit to bump the version number in package.json and tag it with git tag vX.Y.Z.

Run npm run release to prepare a new release.

Run npm run deploy to deploy the release to the website.

Run npm publish to publish the release to the npm registry.
