Installation (post-install/config)

[krittick]

Not sure if I'm missing a step that's not mentioned in the readme, but using the latest master code results in the below error when navigating to the instance:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'speech' of undefined qwebirc-0.97.0.js:877

(using non-minified, non-cdn for debugging)

Hardcoding the value to what it's set to in the constants variable in the code just leads to other similar errors for other variables. Upon checking the console, "constants" does not exist as a variable at all in the compiled js.

The steps in the readme don't appear to actually start a node or twisted instance, if that could be the cause, but that's not mentioned anywhere if so.

Think I fixed this in https://github.com/megawac/qwebirc-enhancements/commit/a488f83ec2a45a2c4eb274807211788f7018ad97

It was an issue with requiring dependencies in the wrong order

Thanks

As far as building running the code the work flow is something like this:

• Clone https://github.com/megawac/iris (used to be any instance of qwebirc or iris but this repo is the only one supporting the localization engine)
• Update the static submodule. I've been very bad at keeping it up to date with this repo
• Configure the static options
• Build the static content via grunt grunt or grunt build. I'm in the process of allowing you to build it via python
• Start the server python run.py
• Navigate to 127.0.0.1:9090 or the port you set

[krittick]

Thanks, I kinda figured it was related to needing an instance running and I hadn't considered that it'd be in a different project. Was used to the original qwebirc including it all.

I'll give that build order a shot this evening and see how it goes.

I need to figure out a way to streamline that process... I'll look into it this weekend

[megawac]

@krittick I couldnt get this out of my head and I've add a quick prototype way to do it similar to the old qwebirc compile process to my iris fork

• Clone that repo
• Run compile.py python compile.py which clones the lastest version of this repo, then compiles static resource
• Start server python run.py

Problem its not finished... Still got to pass items from the config file to the static process or its not going to be customizable -- going to have to make a map. I'm heading out I'll think about this another night

[krittick]

Couldn't you make compile.py interactive and request the config values from the user then? I'm sure you have a final method planned for doing this so it might not be ideal. I use this approach in another app I develop so I figured I'd mention it before I was able to try the steps tonight.

I was thinking about doing that when I started the project, however I'm pretty sure the user would be half ready to jump on a plane to gut me by the time they finished entering all the config inputs.

I started adding them to this file in the Python-compile branch
