Rūdolfs Ošiņš 33182fd942 Run desktop CI from the repo root
GitHub only reads workflows from the root `.github/` and ryph only reads
the root `.ryph/`. The desktop workflows now run in `desktop/`, and the
ryph setup installs and warms both projects.

Radicle Desktop

This desktop application lets you interact with Radicle, a peer-to-peer code collaboration and publishing stack.

Installation

See radicle.dev/desktop#install.

From source

Prerequisites:

On Windows, NPM's script shell must be set to a POSIX compatible shell such as Git Bash:

npm config set script-shell "C:\\Program Files\\git\\bin\\bash.exe"

Run the following commands to build the desktop app locally:

git clone https://seed.radicle.dev/z4D5UCArafTzTQpDZNQRuqswh3ury.git radicle-desktop
cd radicle-desktop
npm install
npm run tauri build

Then run one of the builds that the script outputs at the end.

Development

To start the app in development mode with hot reload:

npm run dev

To log how long every backend command takes, for performance work, set VITE_LOG_INVOKE_TIMINGS=true. Each call then prints [invoke] <command> <ms>ms to the browser console (visible at debug level):

VITE_LOG_INVOKE_TIMINGS=true npm run dev

A dev build uses its own identifier, so it runs next to an installed release, and it never registers itself as the handler for rad: links. On Linux and Windows, open a link in it by starting the dev binary a second time with the link as its argument, while npm run dev is running:

target/dev-without-assertions/radicle-desktop rad:z4D5UCArafTzTQpDZNQRuqswh3ury

On macOS links only reach app bundles. Quit the installed app, then build and open a debug bundle:

npm run tauri build -- --debug --bundles app

Releasing

Releases are driven by an interactive, phased script. Start one with:

scripts/release --phase prep --version X.Y.Z

Each phase does its mechanical work, then prints the manual tasks for its gate and the exact flag to resume with. List the phases and see the configuration with scripts/release --list and scripts/release --help.
