Getting started

Running locally

npm install             Install dependencies 
npm run setup           Setup config parameters
npm run start           Start the app

When running npm run setup you can provide your custom config parameters, otherwise just skip with Enter key. If you need help just use npm run setup help.

Then visit http://localhost:3300/ to use your app.

Working on solidity contracts

In the solidity folder you'll find all the contracts as a truffle project (we are using truffle 4). You need to have truffle 4 installed as a global command and can use the built in truffle development blockchain.

truffle develop - to start the development blockchain (you have to be in /solidity folder)

After that in the truffle console you can migrate and test your contracts.

• Tests will require Node version that is greater than Node 7.0

migrate
test

If you want to deploy the contracts to kovan use migrate --network kovan in solidity/truffle.js you have the deployment config for the network you can use your own local node or infura.io (supply the mnemonic 12 keyword seed of your wallet to deploy with infura) Add the new abi and contract address to the config.json file if you want to test your changes in the frontend.

Production deploy

npm install             Install dependencies 
npm run setup           Setup config parameters
npm run prod            Build a minified bundle

Your bundled files will be at the public/ folder, after that you just need to host them somewhere.

Hosting on IPFS

Follow the instructions for production deploy and proceed.

Install IPFS https://ipfs.io/docs/getting-started/

ipfs add -r public/

You will be given a set of hashes corresponding to the files in the public folder, use the most bottom one for the public folder.

It should look something like this added QmVN4UWCeqRe9LcqicyNzxnb55yK7sUxBHuHRRFVFt82WN public

Visit http://[insert trusted ipfs gateway]/ipfs/QmVN4UWCeqRe9LcqicyNzxnb55yK7sUxBHuHRRFVFt82WN

* Note when hosting on IPFS *

Hosting on IPFS comes with some disadvantadges, localStorage becomes unsecure because it's available cross domain and other apps hosted on IPFS can interfere with your data, when you host MelonMail on IPFS you should disable local storage features by setting Enable use of local storage to false during the setup wizard, or manually setting useLocalStorage to false in config/config.json
