rink-rs/web

Rink Web

This is a web interface to Rink that works by compiling Rink to WebAssembly. The frontend is written in TypeScript using Svelte + Sapper.

This is a progressive web app, and also supports server side rendering.

Development

Make sure you have Rustup and the latest Stable Rust toolchain.

All the dependencies need to be installed by running:

npm install

Once that's done, you can start the dev server by running:

npm run dev

This will automatically compile Rink to wasm for you. It will detect changes made to rink-js and recompile, but changes to rink-core will require restarting the dev server.

Deployment

To deploy rink-web, there's a couple of steps you'll need to do:

1. Run npx sapper build build. This will compile the app and put it into build/.
2. Move your node_modules out of the way and run npm install --production to get just the production dependencies.
3. Copy build/, node_modules/ and static/ to your web server.
4. Run node build/ to start the server. It will respect the PORT and NODE_ENV environment variables, which default to 3000 and production respectively.

The following directories can be served statically, as long as there's still a fallback that reverse proxies the node server:

• static/ is mounted on /.
• build/client/ is mounted on /client/.
