Build status
Installing OAE
Documentation on how to install and configure OAE can be found in the back-end repository.
HTTPS
In order to run the the OAE project on HTTPS we recommend following this tutorial. In a nutshell:
# create the certificate
sudo openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout <SOME_PATH>/nginx-selfsigned.key -out <SOME_PATH>/nginx-selfsigned.crt
Then create a self-signed.conf file next to nginx.conf, uncomment both lines and replace <%= nginxConf.NGINX_SSL_HOME %> with the path you picked above (SOME_PATH):
ssl_certificate <%= nginxConf.NGINX_SSL_HOME %>;/nginx-selfsigned.crt;
ssl_certificate_key <%= nginxConf.NGINX_SSL_HOME %>;/nginx-selfsigned.key;
Finally, uncomment the following lines in nginx.conf:
# listen 443 ssl default_server;
# include self-signed.conf;
Reload nginx and HTTPS should work now.
Offline Development
By default 3akai-ux uses the Open Sans font family available from Google's Web Font CDN. When developing locally without a live internet connection, that CDN will be inaccessible. To ensure maximum visual fidelity, those fonts can be installed as system fonts on the local machine. The entire collection can be downloaded from Google.
Widget development
Documentation (WIP) on how to create custom OAE widgets can be found on the Widget Wiki
Install dependencies
lerna and yarn are required to download 3akai-ux dependencies. To do so, run this command in your 3akai-ux directory: lerna bootstrap
Note that Hilary and its dependencies should be installed and running on your system before the tests can be run successfully.
