This is the main repo for the prototype web-based CAT tool developed at CNGL.

#Build Instructions

The frontend is build entirely with javascript, using the Angular framework.

To set up your development environment, it's strongly recommended that you use the development stack consisting of:

• bower - for frontend package management
• grunt - for automating the build and deployment, running tests, and providing the development server (using packages from npm)
• npm - for managing the node js dependencies

1. Install node and npm if you don't already have them.

• you shouldn't need to use sudo, the scripts here are good installation options.
• if you already have node and npm, don't try to install again without completely getting rid of your previous installation.
• in order to compile node in a fresh Ubuntu instalation you'll need to install the C/C++ compilation tools first. sudo apt-get install build-essential will install them.
• the scripts also require curl: sudo apt-get install curl

2. clone the repo git clone [email protected]:CNGL-repo/editor_components.git
3. install grunt npm install -g grunt
4. install grun-cli npm install -g grunt-cli
5. install boew npm install -g bower
6. run $ npm install from the top directiory(editor_components/)
7. run $ bower install from the top directory(editor_components/)
8. build bootstrap ui -

$ cd app/bower_components/angular-ui-bootstrap
$ npm install
$ grunt

5. to use the autoreload and watch changes functionalities, you'll need ruby and compass.

• install Ruby, then do gem install compass
• make sure that your ruby installation's bin/ folder is on your $PATH

Finally, once you've done all that, you should be able to run grunt serve, and fire up a server which watches all of the files in the repo, and automagically reloads whenever you change something.

• use two spaces to indent javascript

• to start the server to the glossary and concordancer endpoints, do:

  cd server/     
  node web.js
  

• The command grunt build --force will build the client application into dist/
