Building the server

make prebuild
make

Currently tested with:

• Go 1.15.2
• MacOS Catalina (10.15.6)
• Ubuntu 18.04
• Windows 10

The server defaults to using SQLite as the store, but can be configured to use Postgres:

• In config.json
  • Set dbtype to "postgres"
  • Set dbconfig to the connection string (which you can copy from dbconfig_postgres)
• Create a new "octo" database with psql
• Restart the server

Running and testing the server

To start the server, run ./bin/octoserver

Server settings are in config.json.

Open a browser to http://localhost:8000 to start.

Building and running standalone desktop apps

You can build standalone apps that package the server to run locally against SQLite:

• Mac:
  • make mac-app
  • run mac/dist/Tasks.app
  • Requires: macOS Catalina (10.15), Xcode 12 and a development signing certificate.
• Linux:
  • make linux-app
  • run linux/dist/tasks-app
• Windows
  • make win-app
  • run win/dist/tasks-win.exe
  • Requires: Windows 10

Cross-compilation currently isn't fully supported, so please build on the appropriate platform.
