Getting Started

This section will guide you through the steps necessary to get the monorepo projects running and communicating with each other.

Prerequisites

Make sure the following software is installed before proceeding.

• Bash
• Docker (for macOS folks, Orbstack works too)
• Node.js (v20)
• Just
• libvirt (macOS folks can run brew install libvirt)
• An Unraid server for development

Next, create an SSH key if you haven't already. Once you have your key pair, add your public SSH key to your Unraid server:

1. Log in to your Unraid development server.
2. Use the navigation menu to go to 'Users'.
3. Click on the user you logged in with (e.g. root)
4. Paste your SSH public key into 'SSH authorized keys' and click 'Save'.

Installation

1. Clone and enter the repo

   git clone git@github.com:unraid/api.git
   cd api
   

2. Run the monorepo setup command.

    pnpm install
   

3. Run the build watcher to build the components and serve a local plugin file that can be installed on your Unraid server.

   pnpm build:watch
   

   Navigate to Plugins->Install and install the local plugin file that is output to the console.

Work Intent Process

Before starting development work on this project, you must submit a Work Intent and have it approved by a core developer. This helps prevent duplicate work and ensures changes align with the project's goals.

1. Create a Work Intent

   • Go to Issues → New Issue → Work Intent
   • Fill out the brief template describing what you want to work on
   • The issue will be automatically labeled as work-intent and unapproved

2. Wait for Approval

   • A core developer will review your Work Intent
   • They may ask questions or suggest changes
   • Once approved, the unapproved label will be removed

3. Begin Development

   • Only start coding after your Work Intent is approved
   • Follow the approach outlined in your approved Work Intent
   • Reference the Work Intent in your future PR
