decomp.dev

Decompilation progress website & GitHub bot.

For more information, see the wiki.

Backend Setup

1. Install Rust via rustup:

   curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
   

2. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/encounter/decomp.dev.git
   cd decomp.dev
   

3. Copy config.example.yml to config.yml:

   cp config.example.yml config.yml
   

4. Create a new GitHub personal access token with scopes workflow, write:discussion. Set it in config.yml:

   github:
     token: ghp_abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234abcd
   

5. Install bacon:

   cargo install --locked bacon
   

6. Run the backend with automatic rebuild on changes:

   bacon
   

When modifying Rust code, it will take a few seconds to build and restart the server. Once the server updates, the browser page will automatically reload.

Frontend Setup

1. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

2. Start the frontend development server:

   npm start
   

When the frontend development server is running, changes to files under css/, js/ and assets/ will live reload in the browser.

Testing

When running both the backend and frontend, the site will be accessible at http://localhost:3000.

By default, server.dev_mode in config.yml is enabled, allowing any visitor to log in as a superuser without authentication.

To add projects to the site, visit http://localhost:3000/manage/new, using an existing project from decomp.dev as reference:
