Desktop/tray app for Red Hat OpenShift Local (formerly CodeReady Containers)

Note! This project is not under active development. Please use the OpenShift Local extension for Podman Desktop instead.

Release

$ make release

You also need to add crc binary to the app.

For macOS, please also run:

$ cp <path to crc release binary> release/tray-electron-darwin-x64/tray-electron.app/Contents/Resources/app/

Development

To build the Electron tray you need to install nodejs in your system

We suggest you install nvm or nvs and use it to install nodejs version 16.13.1

1. Install NodeJS

   The following instructions are from nodejs.dev

   Linux / macOS

   $ curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.0/install.sh | bash 
   $ nvm install 16.13.1
   

   windows

   PS> choco install nvs
   PS> nvs add 16.13.1
   PS> nvs use 16.13.1
   

2. Clone the repository and use make to build the tray app

   $ git clone https://github.com/code-ready/tray-electron.git
   $ cd tray-electron
   $ make

NOTE

While making changes to the UI it is handy to see the rendered pages live as you are doing the changes

Starts electron concurrently with a live server which watches for changes and reloads as you save

$ make dev
