Inbucket User Interface

This directory contains the source code for the Inbucket web user interface. It is written in Elm 0.19, a delightful language for reliable webapps.

Development

With $INBUCKET as the root of the git repository.

One time setup (assuming Node.js is already installed):

cd $INBUCKET/ui
npm i elm -g
npm i
npm run build

This will the create node_modules, elm-stuff, and dist directories.

Terminal 1: inbucket daemon

cd $INBUCKET
make
etc/dev-start.sh

Inbucket will start, with HTTP listening on port 9000. You may verify the web UI is functional if this is your first time building Inbucket, but your dev/test cycle should favor the development server below.

Terminal 2: webpack development server

cd $INBUCKET/ui
npm run dev

npm will start a development HTTP server listening on port 3000. You should use this server for UI development, as it features hot reload and the Elm debugger.
