<!-- GETTING STARTED -->
## 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 (v22)][Node-url]
- [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/) (v9.0+) - Install with `npm install -g pnpm`
- [Just](https://github.com/casey/just) (optional)
- libvirt (macOS folks can run `brew install libvirt`)
- rclone (v1.70+) - **Important:** Version 1.70 or higher is required
- jq - JSON processor for scripts
- An [Unraid][Unraid-url] server for development
#### Ubuntu/WSL Users
For Ubuntu or WSL users, note that the default Ubuntu repositories may have older versions of rclone. You'll need rclone v1.70 or higher, which can be obtained from the [rclone releases page](https://github.com/rclone/rclone/releases).
#### Verify Prerequisites
After installation, verify your dependencies:
```sh
# Verify installations and versions
node --version # Should be v22.x
pnpm --version # Should be v9.0+
rclone version # Should be v1.70+
jq --version # Should be installed
docker --version # Should be installed
```
#### Alternative: Using Nix Flake
If you have [Nix](https://nixos.org/) installed, you can use the provided flake to automatically set up all development dependencies:
```sh
nix develop
```
This will provide all the required tools (Node.js, Docker, Just, libvirt, rclone, etc.) without needing to install them manually.
#### SSH Key Setup
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
```sh
git clone git@github.com:unraid/api.git
cd api
```
If using Nix, enter the development environment:
```sh
nix develop
```
2. Install dependencies and verify they're correctly installed:
```sh
# Install all monorepo dependencies
pnpm install
# The install script will automatically check for required dependencies
# and their versions (rclone v1.70+, jq, pnpm, etc.)
```
3. Build the project:
```sh
# Build individual packages first (from root directory)
cd api && pnpm build && cd ..
cd web && pnpm build && cd ..
# Then build the plugin if needed
cd plugin && pnpm build && cd ..
```
Note: The packages must be built in order as the plugin depends on the API build artifacts.
### Development Modes
The project supports two development modes:
#### Mode 1: Build Watcher with Local Plugin
This mode builds the plugin continuously and serves it locally for installation on your Unraid server:
```sh
# From the root directory (api/)
pnpm build:watch
```
This command will output a local plugin URL that you can install on your Unraid server by navigating to Plugins → Install Plugin. Be aware it will take a *while* to build the first time.
#### Mode 2: Development Servers
For active development with hot-reload:
```sh
# From the root directory - runs all dev servers concurrently
pnpm dev
```
Or run individual development servers:
```sh
# API server (GraphQL backend at http://localhost:3001)
cd api && pnpm dev
# Web interface (Nuxt frontend at http://localhost:3000)
cd web && pnpm dev
```
### Building the Full Plugin
To build the complete plugin package (.plg file):
```sh
# From the root directory (api/)
pnpm build:plugin
# The plugin will be created in plugin/dynamix.unraid.net.plg
```
To deploy the plugin to your Unraid server:
```sh
# Replace SERVER_IP with your Unraid server's IP address
pnpm unraid:deploy SERVER_IP
```

### Developer Documentation
For more information about development workflows, repository organization, and other technical details, please refer to the developer documentation inside this repository:
- [Development Guide](./api/docs/developer/development.md) - Setup, building, and debugging instructions
- [Development Workflows](./api/docs/developer/workflows.md) - Detailed workflows for local development, building, and deployment
- [Repository Organization](./api/docs/developer/repo-organization.md) - High-level architecture and project structure
### 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](https://github.com/unraid/api/issues/new?template=work_intent.md)
- 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
