Build instructions

• Setup your environment using the react native instructions.
• Setup your environment for e2e testing using detox:
  • yarn global add detox-cli
  • brew tap wix/brew
  • brew install applesimutils
• After initial setup:
  • cd ios ; pod install
• Start the dev servers
  • git clone git@github.com:bluesky-social/atproto.git
  • cd atproto
  • yarn
  • cd packages/dev-env && yarn start
• Run the dev app
  • iOS: yarn ios
  • Android: yarn android
  • Web: yarn web
• Tips
  • npx react-native info Checks what has been installed.
  • On M1 macs, you need to exclude "arm64" from the target architectures
    • Annoyingly this must be re-set via XCode after every pod install
  • The android simulator won't be able to access localhost services unless you run adb reverse tcp:{PORT} tcp:{PORT}
    • For instance, the localhosted dev-wallet will need adb reverse tcp:3001 tcp:3001
  • For some reason, the typescript compiler chokes on platform-specific files (e.g. foo.native.ts) but only when compiling for Web thus far. Therefore we always have one version of the file which doesn't use a platform specifier, and that should bee the Web version. (More info.)

Various notes

Debugging

• Note that since 0.70, debugging using the old debugger (which shows up using CMD+D) doesn't work anymore. Follow the instructions below to debug the code: https://reactnative.dev/docs/next/hermes#debugging-js-on-hermes-using-google-chromes-devtools

Running E2E Tests

• Make sure you've setup your environment following above
• Make sure Metro and the dev server are running
• Run yarn e2e
• Find the artifacts in the artifact folder

Polyfills

./platform/polyfills.*.ts adds polyfills to the environment. Currently this includes:

• TextEncoder / TextDecoder
