Tractor Prototype
These are instructions for development, which is the only way to use Tractor right now.
Prerequisites
- golang 1.13+
- git 2.11+
- node 10.x.x (not 12.x.x)
- python (for node-gyp)
- make
- yarn
npm i -g yarn - typescript
yarn global add typescript - for linux:
- gtk+3.0-dev
- webkit2gtk-dev
- libappindicator-dev
- g++
- for mac:
- XCode Command Line Tools
- if you run into node-gyp issues read this
See what versions you have with make versions:
$ make versions
go version go1.13.3 darwin/amd64
node v10.16.1
git version 2.24.1
yarn 1.21.1
typescript Version 3.0.3
Node is a tricky one because it must be less than version 12, which
apparently means the 10.x line. On OS X installing with brew install node@10
may still result in version 12. You may need to force brew link the older version.
Setup
Just clone and setup tractor:
$ git clone https://github.com/manifold/tractor
$ cd tractor
$ make setup
Running / Development
Run the agent in development mode with:
$ make dev
Tractor Studio will be running on http://localhost:3000 but you want to open it with a
path to a Tractor workspace. A development workspace is created for you at local/workspace
which should show up in the Tractor systray menu as dev. Clicking dev in the menu will
launch Studio in your browser opened to that workspace.
Currently an upstream bug(?) means you can only use Chrome.
