Setup autowrx instance
This guide will walk you through the steps to set up, run, and customize an instance of the open-source autowrx project.
Prerequisites
Before proceeding with the setup, ensure that you have the following prerequisites installed on your system:
- node (version 20.12.12 or higher)
- Yarn (optional, if installed, it needs to be installed globally)
Setting up autowrx
Follow the steps below to set up your instance of autowrx:
Clone the Repository
First, clone the autowrx repository from GitLab. You can choose to clone the repository using either HTTPS or SSH.
To clone with HTTPS, use the following command:
git clone https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse/autowrx/autowrx.git
To clone with SSH, use this command:
git clone git@gitlab.eclipse.org:eclipse/autowrx/autowrx.git
Install dependencies
Navigate into the directory of the cloned repository and install all necessary dependencies.
Using Yarn:
cd autowrx yarn
Using npm:
cd autowrx npm i
Add a .env File
Next, you need to create a .env file in the root directory of the project. This file will contain configuration variables, such as the server endpoint. Below is an example of what your .env file should look like:
VITE_SERVER_BASE_URL=https://autowrx-server.example.com
Replace
https://autowrx-server.example.com
with the actual server endpoint of your autowrx instance.Run project
Finally, you can run the project using either Yarn or npm. Choose one of the following commands:
Using Yarn:
yarn dev
Using npm:
npm run dev
Your autowrx instance should now be up and running at localhost:3000, ready for you to customize and use.
Customize your instance
After setting up your instance, you can customize its appearance and content. The files and configurations you need to edit for customization are listed and described below.
