For developers looking to contribute to quais or integrate it into their projects with local modifications, setting up a local development environment is essential. This section guides you through the process of building quais and linking it to another project on your machine using npm link.
Prepare quais for Symbolic Linking
Clone the quais repository and navigate into it.
git clone https://github.com/dominant-strategies/quais.js.git
cd quais.js
Install dependencies.
npm install
Create a global symbolic link for quais. This makes the quais package available to link in any other project. Whenever a local change is made to quais that you want to test in another project, you must run this command again to update the symbolic link.
npm run update-symlink
Caution - The update-symlink
command updates the globally available symbolic link to the build of the current branch you are on when the command is run. This can potentially lead to incompatible version usage if quais is linked to multiple projects locally.
Linking quais to Another Project
After setting up quais for local development, you can link it to another project to test changes or develop features that depend on quais.
cd path/to/your/project
npm link quais
Testing Changes
With quais linked to your project, any changes made to the quais library can be immediately tested within the context of your project. Remember to rebuild quais (npm run update-symlink
) after making changes to ensure they are reflected in your project.
Reverting to the Published Package
If you need to revert back to the official quais package published on npm, you can unlink quais and reinstall the package.
Unlink quais by removing the symlink.
npm unlink quais
Reinstall quais: Install the quais package from npm to use the published version.
npm install quais
Documentation for the Quais SDK is under heavy development and will be updated often soon. In the meantime, please refer to the reference material below:
The quais
package only includes the most common and most core
functionality to interact with Quai Network. There are many other
packages designed to further enhance the functionality and experience.
