Setting up Jnet Development on Windows
Here's the steps and specific programs I had to install in order to get the dev environment for Jinteki.net running on a new Windows 10 laptop (Home Edition). There's nothing different from the general Development Instructions, but some additions specific for Windows.
Sure, PowerShell is pretty good, but you can't beat Cmder. Seriously, just use this as your terminal. It also comes with git bundled, so you can clone down your fork of Jinteki at this point too. Be sure to set up your upstream remote.
Be sure to use a local-only, global .gitignore file. You can set this up now. Here's what I'm using at the moment. You would put this in the root of your User Directory and tell git where it is.
git config --global core.excludesfile "%UserProfile%\.gitignore"
Install the latest JDK. I ended up using jdk-8u111-windows-x64.exe
Install the latest version (v6.9.2), but use the 32-bit version, even if you are on 64-bit version of Windows.
After it is installed, open a Cmder terminal with administrator privileges, head to your repo, and install the windows-build-tools for NPM. This will help with the install process later for node-gyp.
npm install --global --production windows-build-tools
Once that's complete, you can close down your admin prompt, and open up a regular Cmder terminal. Head to your repo and run the following commands:
npm install -g bower
npm install -g stylus
Install the latest version. I used mongodb-win32-x86_64-2008plus-ssl-3.4.1-signed
You also need to add the installation to your PATH. If you used the standard location, it will be this: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.4\bin
I also had to go into the data directory and mkdir db
Install the latest version. I used leiningen-installer-1.0
Open a Cmder terminal and go to your repo. Then run the following:
bower install
Here's what you've been waiting for - be sure to run each of these in its own Cmder terminal from inside the repo. Yes, by the end of this, you will have 5 terminals running at once.
# 1. Start up MongoDB
mongod --dbpath ./data
# 2. Download the card data, then Compile/watch Clojure files
lein fetch
lein cljsbuild auto dev
# 3. Compile/watch CSS files
stylus -w src/css -o resources/public/css/
# 4. Compile server side Clojure files
lein uberjar
# 5. Launch server in dev mode
lein repl
You should now be able to visit Jnet locally in your browser.
