Sometimes, things go wrong. This can be due to incompatible updates on the budibase platform. To clear down your development environment and start again:

### Getting Started For Contributors
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 1. Prerequisites
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*yarn -* `npm install -g yarn`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*jest* - `npm install -g jest`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 2. Clone this repository
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`git clone https://github.com/Budibase/budibase.git`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
then `cd ` into your local copy.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 3. Install and Build
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`yarn` to install project dependencies
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`yarn bootstrap` will install all budibase modules and symlink them together using lerna.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`yarn build` will build all budibase packages.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 4. Initialising Budibase and Creating a Budibase App
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`yarn initialise` will initialise your budibase installation. A Budibase apps folder will have been created in `~/.budibase`. This also creates
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is a blank apps folder, so you will need to create yourself an app.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
cd packages/server
|
rm -rf ~/.budibase
|
||||||
yarn run budi new your-app-name
|
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
Follow from **Step 3. Install and Build** in the setup guide above. You should have a fresh Budibase installation.
|
||||||
This will create a new budibase application in the `~/.budibase/<your-app-uuid>` directory, and NPM install the component libraries for that application. Let's start building your app with the budibase builder!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 4. Running
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To run the budibase server and builder in dev mode (i.e. with live reloading):
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Open a new console
|
|
||||||
2. `yarn dev` (from root)
|
|
||||||
3. Access the builder on http://localhost:4001/_builder/
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will enable watch mode for both the builder app, server, client library and any component libraries.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Running Commands from /server Directory
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Notice that when inside `packages/server`, you can use any Budibase CLI command via yarn:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
e.g. `yarn budi new mikes_app` == `budi new mikes_app`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will use the CLI directly from `packages/cli`, rather than your globally installed `budi`
