# Building from source
|
|
|
|
The Content App is based on [Angular CLI](https://cli.angular.io), and you can use all the commands, generators, and blueprints supported by the CLI.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites for building
|
|
|
|
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) 18.x
|
|
- NPM 9.x
|
|
- (optional) [Angular CLI](https://cli.angular.io/) 14.x or later
|
|
|
|
> The Angular CLI libraries are already part of the setup.
|
|
> You may want installing it as a global (recommended) tool only if you intend using CLI commands separately.
|
|
|
|
## Cloning and running
|
|
|
|
Use the following commands to clone the project, install dependencies and run it.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-content-app.git
|
|
cd alfresco-content-app
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The application runs at port `4200` by default, and should automatically open in the default browser once the project has compiled.
|
|
|
|
## Setting up environment variables
|
|
|
|
You need to set some environment variables to be able to run the local dev server. In the project root folder, create an `.env` file (this is gitignored) with the following data:
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
# App config settings
|
|
APP_CONFIG_ECM_HOST="<URL>"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Proxy settings
|
|
|
|
The Content App provides a proxy configuration for a local development server that allows you to address specific scenarios with CORS and a native authentication dialog.
|
|
|
|
You can find settings in the `proxy.conf.js` file in the project `src` directory. By default, settings coming from environment variables have higher priority.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** The proxy settings get automatically applied every time you run the application with the `npm start` script.
|
|
You must restart the application every time you change its settings.
|
|
|
|
## Running unit tests
|
|
|
|
Run `npm test` to execute the unit tests via [Karma](https://karma-runner.github.io).
