## Translate
You can help us to translate the PeerTube interface to many languages! See [the documentation](/support/doc/translation.md) to know how.
You can help to write the documentation of the REST API, code, architecture,
demonstrations.
-For the REST API you can see the documentation in [/support/doc/api](/support/doc/api) directory.
-Then, you can just open the `openapi.yaml` file in a special editor like [http://editor.swagger.io/](http://editor.swagger.io/) to easily see and edit the documentation.

You can also use [redoc-cli](https://github.com/Redocly/redoc/blob/master/cli/README.md) and run `redoc-cli serve --watch support/doc/api/openapi.yaml` to see the final result.
Some hints:
- * Routes are defined in [/server/controllers/](/server/controllers/) directory
- * Parameters validators are defined in [/server/middlewares/validators](/server/middlewares/validators) directory
- * Models sent/received by the controllers are defined in [/shared/models](/shared/models) directory

+## Improve the website
+
+PeerTube's website is [joinpeertube.org](https://joinpeertube.org), where people can learn about the project and how it works – note that it is not a PeerTube instance, but rather the project's homepage.
+
+You can help us improve it too!
+
+It is not hosted on GitHub but on [Framasoft](https://framasoft.org/)'s own [GitLab](https://about.gitlab.com/) instance, [FramaGit](https://framagit.org): https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/joinpeertube
## Develop
First, you should use a server or PC with at least 4GB of RAM. Less RAM may lead to crashes.
-Make sure that you have followed
-[the steps](/support/doc/dependencies.md)
+Make sure that you have followed
+[the steps](/support/doc/dependencies.md)
to install the dependencies.
-Then clone the sources and install node modules:
+Fork the github repository,
+and then clone the sources and install node modules:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube
+$ git remote add me git@github.com:YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/PeerTube.git
$ cd PeerTube
$ yarn install --pure-lockfile
```
Peertube, you should switch to that branch. Also note that you have to repeat
the `yarn install --pure-lockfile` command.
+When you create a new branch you should also tell to use your repo for upload
+not default one. To do just do:
+```
+$ git push --set-upstream me <your branch name>
+```
+
Then, create a postgres database and user with the values set in the
`config/default.yaml` file. For instance, if you do not change the values
there, the following commands would create a new database called `peertube_dev`
In dev mode, administrator username is **root** and password is **test**.
+### Online development
+
+You can get a complete PeerTube development setup with Gitpod, a free one-click online IDE for GitHub:
+
+[](https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube)
+
### Server side
-You can find a documentation of the server code/architecture [here](/support/doc/development/server/code.md).
+You can find a documentation of the server code/architecture [here](https://docs.joinpeertube.org/#/contribute-architecture?id=server-code).
To develop on the server-side:
### Client side
-You can find a documentation of the server code/architecture
-[here](/support/doc/development/client/code.md).
+You can find a documentation of the client code/architecture
+[here](https://docs.joinpeertube.org/#/contribute-architecture?id=client-code).
To develop on the client side:
$ npm run dev
```
-Depending on your OS, you may face the following error :
-```
-$ [nodemon] Internal watch failed: ENOSPC: no space left on device, watch '/PeerTube/dist'
-```
-
-This is due to your system's limit on the number of files you can monitor for live-checking changes. For example, Ubuntu uses inotify and this limit is set to 8192. Then you need to change this limit :
-```
-echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p
-```
-
-See more information here : https://github.com/guard/listen/wiki/Increasing-the-amount-of-inotify-watchers
-
-### Configurations for VPS
-
-If you want to develop using a Virtual Private Server, you will need to configure the url for the API and the hostname. First, you need to edit the [client/src/environments/environment.hmr.ts](client/src/environments/environment.hmr.ts) file by replacing the `localhost` in the `apiUrl` field with the address of your VPS. Thus, the [Hot Module Replacement](https://webpack.js.org/concepts/hot-module-replacement/) from Webpack will be set up for developping with live-reload.
-
-Next, you will need to edit the [config/default.yaml](config/default.yaml) file. Just replace the `localhost` with your VPS address in the following `hostname` fields :
-```
-listen:
- hostname: 'my-vps-address.net'
- port: 9000
-
-webserver:
- https: false
- hostname: 'my-vps-address.net'
- port: 9000
-```
-
-Then, you just need to listen to `https://my-vps-address.net:3000/` in your web browser.
-
-### Federation
+### Testing the federation of PeerTube servers
Create a PostgreSQL user **with the same name as your username** in order to avoid using the *postgres* user.
Then, we can create the databases (if they don't already exist):
Build the application and flush the old tests data:
```
-$ npm run build
+$ npm run build -- --light
$ npm run clean:server:test
```
```
$ sudo -u postgres createuser you_username --createdb --superuser
-$ createdb -O peertube peertube_test{1,2,3,4,5,6}
+$ npm run clean:server:test
```
Build the application and run the unit/integration tests:
```
-$ npm run build
+$ npm run build -- --light
$ npm test
```
If you just want to run 1 test:
```
-$ npm run mocha -- --exit --require ts-node/register/type-check --bail server/tests/api/index.ts
+$ npm run mocha -- --exit -r ts-node/register -r tsconfig-paths/register --bail server/tests/api/index.ts
```
Instance configurations are in `config/test-{1,2,3,4,5,6}.yaml`.
Note that only instance 2 has transcoding enabled.
+
+### Emails
+
+To test emails with PeerTube:
+
+ * Run [mailslurper](http://mailslurper.com/)
+ * Run PeerTube using mailslurper SMTP port: `NODE_CONFIG='{ "smtp": { "hostname": "localhost", "port": 2500, "tls": false } }' NODE_ENV=test npm start`
