# How to setup the build environment for browsh on a generic Linux system

This guide was made for x86-64 based Linux systems. You may try to adapt it to other systems.
In this guide, it is assumed that you can't install the required go, nodejs and firefox versions from your distribution's repositories.
In case they are available, you should try to install go, nodejs and firefox using your distribution's package manager.
You can follow this guide as-is on x86-64 based Linux distributions.

This guide assumes that you cannot install the required Go, NodeJS and Firefox packages
from your distribution's repositories.
In case they are available, you should install them using your system's package manager.

## Installing golang

Get the latest amd64 binary for Linux on the [golang download page](https://golang.org/dl/).
Get the latest binary for your target Linux system from the [golang download page](https://golang.org/dl/).

Extract to `/usr/local` with:

```
$ tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.11.linux-amd64.tar.gz
```shell
tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.11.linux-amd64.tar.gz
```

Add `/usr/local/go/bin` to your `PATH` in `~/.profile`

## Installing nodejs/npm

Go to the [nodejs download page](https://nodejs.org/download) and select the LTS version of the Linux x86 64bit binaries.
Go to the [nodejs download page](https://nodejs.org/download)
and select the LTS version of the Linux x86 64bit binaries.

```
$ mkdir /usr/local/lib/nodejs
$ VERSION=v8.11.4
$ DISTRO=linux-x64
$ tar -xJvf node-$VERSION-$DISTRO.tar.xz -C /usr/local/lib/nodejs
$ mv /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-$VERSION-$DISTRO /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-$VERSION
```shell
mkdir /usr/local/lib/nodejs
VERSION=v8.11.4
DISTRO=linux-x64
tar -xJvf node-$VERSION-$DISTRO.tar.xz -C /usr/local/lib/nodejs
mv /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-$VERSION-$DISTRO /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-$VERSION
```

Edit your `~/.profile` to add `/usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-v8.11.4/bin` to your `PATH`, then reload your profile:
Edit your `~/.profile` to add `/usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-v8.11.4/bin` to your `PATH`,
then reload your profile:

```
$ source ~/.profile
```shell
source ~/.profile
```

Create symlinks for *node* and *npm*:

```
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-$VERSION/bin/node /usr/local/bin/node
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-$VERSION/bin/npm /usr/local/bin/npm
```shell
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-$VERSION/bin/node /usr/local/bin/node
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/nodejs/node-$VERSION/bin/npm /usr/local/bin/npm
```

Now you should be able to call the *go* and *node* binaries:

```
$ go version
$ node --version
```shell
go version
node --version
```

## Installing webpack and webpack-cli

(`--no-audit` is used to get around errors, may not be needed)
The `--no-audit` flag gets around errors. You may not need it.

```
$ npm install -g --no-audit webpack
$ npm install -g webpack-cli
```shell
npm install -g --no-audit webpack
npm install -g webpack-cli
```

## Installing web-ext

(`--no-audit` is used to get around errors, may not be needed)
The `--no-audit` flag gets around errors. You may not need it.

```
$ npm install -g --ignore-scripts web-ext
```shell
npm install -g --no-audit --ignore-scripts web-ext
```

## Installing Firefox

You may install *firefox* from your distribution's repositories. **Version 57 or higher is required.**
You may install *firefox* from your distribution's repositories.
**Browsh requires Version 57 or higher.**

### Installing firefox from mozilla's binaries

$ bzip2 -d firefox.tar.bz2
$ tar xf firefox.tar
$ popd
```shell
export FIREFOX_VERSION=60.0
mkdir -p $HOME/bin
pushd $HOME/bin
curl -L -o firefox.tar.bz2 https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/$FIREFOX_VERSION/linux-x86_64/en-US/firefox-$FIREFOX_VERSION.tar.bz2

$ cd $REPO_ROOT/interfacer
$ go build -o browsh src/main.go

### Building the web extension

In `$REPO_ROOT/webext`:
In `$browsh/webext`:

```
$ webpack --watch
```shell
webpack --watch
```

This will continuously watch for changes made to the web extension and rebuild it.

## Run firefox and the webextension

In `$REPO_ROOT/webext/dist`:
In `$browsh/webext/dist`:

```
$ web-ext run --verbose --firefox path/to/firefox
```shell
web-ext run --verbose --firefox path/to/firefox
```

## Run browsh

```
$ cd $REPO_ROOT/interfacer
$ go run ./cmd/browsh --firefox.use-existing --debug
```shell
cd "$browsh/interfacer"
go run ./cmd/browsh --firefox.use-existing --debug
```

Or after building:

```
$ ./browsh --firefox.use-existing --debug
```shell
./browsh --firefox.use-existing --debug
```
