Mesh-Mini

Mesh-Mini is a fork of the npm package MeshCommander, due to the ending of support of the MeshCommander application located here - https://www.meshcommander.com/meshcommander.

The code has been modified to be bundled and injected into a copy of node.exe which will run without the need for Node.js to be installed.

The webapp can be run by simply invoking node meshcommander.js, but the intention of this repo is to bundle and inject the program into an .exe for ease of use and distribution.

Run

Download the latest release here, extract the contents, and run mesh-mini.exe

Executable flags

The .exe can be passed a --port and --browser flag to specify the port to run on, and the browser to autolaunch.

The port can be any integer between 0 and 65,536.

Browser options are:

• chrome
• edge
• none

Docker

A Docker image can be pulled and then run with the following commands:

docker pull brytonsalisbury/mesh-mini

docker run -p 3000:3000 brytonsalisbury/mesh-mini

The Docker image can be built from source using:

docker compose up --build

https://hub.docker.com/r/brytonsalisbury/mesh-mini

To build the .exe from source

Prerequisites

Node.js 19.7.0 or greater is required for the use of the --experimental-sea-config flag.

node-v20.5.1

Testing was done on Windows 11 using Node.js 20.5.1.

Steps

1. Clone/download the repo and open a cmd prompt inside the root \mesh-mini directory
2. Execute npm run build to build the .exe.
3. The contents will be copied into the subfolder .\out which will contain mesh-mini.exe and the \public folder required for Express.

npm run clean can be used to clean the root directory.
