# Getting started
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Preparing for running the backend code
|
||
|
|
||
|
**ToDo:** Document how to setup development environment using docker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Clone the repository with `git clone https://github.com/hedgedoc/hedgedoc.git`
|
||
|
(cloning is the preferred way, but you can also download and unzip a release)
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Enter the directory and run `yarn install`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Run `cp .env.example .env` to use the example configuration.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Alternatively, set up a [.env](../config/index.md) or set up
|
||
|
[environment variables](../config/index.md) yourself.
|
||
|
|
||
|
4. Run `openssl rand -hex 16 | sed -E 's/(.*)/HD_SESSION_SECRET=\1/' >> .env` to generate a session secret if you have not set one manually before.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Preparing for running the frontend code
|
||
|
|
||
|
**ToDo:** Document how to setup development environment using docker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Clone the repository with `git clone https://github.com/hedgedoc/react-client.git`
|
||
|
(cloning is the preferred way, but you can also download and unzip a release)
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Enter the directory and run `yarn install`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Running the Code
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now that everything is in place, we can start HedgeDoc:
|
||
|
|
||
|
**ToDo:** Document how to build the frontend and backend or remove this paragraph entirely.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Running the Code with Auto-Reload
|
||
|
|
||
|
The commands above are fine for production, but you're a developer and surely
|
||
|
you want to change things. You would need to restart both commands whenever you
|
||
|
change something. Luckily, you can run these commands that will automatically
|
||
|
rebuild the backend andfrontend or restart the server if necessary.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The commands will stay active in your terminal, so you will need multiple tabs
|
||
|
to run both at the same time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Enter the `react-frontend` directory and use `yarn start` if you want webpack to continuously rebuild the frontend
|
||
|
code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Note:** Currently, this will not result in the backend and frontend communicating with each other.
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Note:** You can run `yarn start:for-real-backend` to start a frontend, which tries to connect to a local backend.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. To auto-reload the server, enter the `hedgedoc` directory and run `yarn start:dev`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Testing
|
||
|
|
||
|
- The backend will be available at `http://localhost:3000`.
|
||
|
- The frontend will be available at `http://localhost:3001`.
