The official webapp for the Langue project.

langue.link

Essentially, langue.link is meant to be a repository for linguistic informations. It works just like npm or some.

langue.link is composed of:

Namespace registry
Static document oriented database for data permanence
Public endpoint for the Langue P2P network
Some social stuff (auths, follows, timelines, etc)
Web UI

Currently under heavy development and not yet launching. This repository is likely to be squashed periodically. We need your opinion about the project.

This note targets to Unix environments now. If you're using Windows join discussion on gitter and help write tips for developers who use Windows.

Prerequisites

Make these commands available on your environment.

docker-compose
openssl

And make sure you're not using these ports before starting development.

53/tcp
53/udp
80
443
8002
8081

After git clone the repo, you'd better check these points:

Generate ./docker/haproxy/cert/langue.link.pem on your local; simply run yarn generate:cert.
Add 127.0.0.1 (Dnsmasq) to top of your DNS server list e.g. /etc/hosts. This allows you to access the local testing server with the domain name langue.link neatly on your browser while development. If not working, try clearing DNS caches on your machine.
./secret/*, files including API keys needed for logging in with external services such as GitHub, is encrypted by git-crypt. If you're going to test such part, please tell me on gitter and I will send you the symmetric key file which decrypts them.

npm-scripts

watch starts development servers/containers up.
clear:db deletes all the datastores located under ./docker/mongo/db.
generate:cert creates a self-signed certificate into ./docker/haproxy/cert. If already exists it'll be overwritten.

Don't forget to stop docker containers by docker-compose down when you take a break from development.

Commands with a name starting with a dot should not, or, need not be run by hand.
