elektrad does not start

Did you build the project? If running from source you need to run npm run build and then npm start (I adjusted this because it makes more sense than rebuilding every single time when running the cmake installation). I can create a new script for the cmake installation though and change npm start so it still works the same way as before.

webd does not install

I do not see any errors there? The peer dependency warnings should not be a problem.

ronn warnings

I am not sure what the problem is here, it is valid markdown (renders fine on github). Does ronn have any special limitations here?

[markus2330]

Did you build the project?

First I tried to run "make install" but it seems like a start script is still not working and docu how to run it is missing, too?

Then I entered the source directory "webd" and tried to run npm install && npm start. Seems like npm run build actually makes a difference (although it prints many errors) but I could not find any docu about it. Nevertheless, accessing http://localhost:33334/ then fails with "Not Found" and console errors ('/home/markus/Projekte/Elektra/build-64/Dis theDESTDIR` I used for installation):

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/home/markus/Projekte/Elektra/build-64/D/usr/local/share/elektra/tool_data/web/client/build/index.html'

Please write docu how it should work and always use this so that it is well tested. And please also test from a complete clean installation. (Without any earlier npm install executed.)

I am not sure what the problem is here, it is valid markdown (renders fine on github).

GitHub is a very special Markdown dialect. You cannot infer from GitHub if you actually wrote broadly accepted Markdown. It is best if you try to run ronn yourself.

install (CODE "execute_process (COMMAND ${TARGET_TOOL_EXEC_FOLDER}/build-${tool})") seems to not execute at all. executing kdb build-web works though (same script). I'm still trying to figure out why this isn't working, it's taking a long time because cmake always takes a long time to run...

[markus2330]

You refer to a script which might not yet be installed. Also TARGET_TOOL_EXEC_FOLDER is wrong (its not an absolute path).

[omnidan]

@markus2330 I already updated the README.md file with info on how to run it earlier.

I fixed the cmake installation issue and now it works for me with a clean installation (following the "getting started" instructions from README.md).

I see, the error messages ronn gives are not very useful though :/ I fixed those issues now. I don't know how to fix the unrecognized inline tag: "img" errors without removing the images completely (see #960).

BTW: to keep things simple - can we merge the 1.2 PR, close all other issues, rename this one to elektra-web 1.3 tasks and move all further tasks (undo/redo, updating blueprints) to 1.3 (this issue)?

BTW^2: I also noticed that sudo make uninstall doesn't fully uninstall elektra (at least on macOS). kdb is still available but every command fails:

dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/libelektratools.2.dylib
  Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/kdb
  Reason: image not found
fish: 'kdb' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort)

Thank you, unfortunately it still fails, see #1839

Yes, I would love to but I want to be at least able to start webd before I merge.

I also noticed that sudo make uninstall doesn't fully uninstall elektra (at least on macOS). kdb is still available but every command fails:

We fixed that some time ago: #1244
Unfortunately the build server still does not check for it so we might have a regression.
