Building FubuMVC

The FubuMVC codebase still uses Rake for build automation, but as of September 2015, you don't have to use Rake to develop with FubuMVC if you don't want to. You will need to have Node.js or Io.js and npm installed in order to build the client side assets for FubuMVC's diagnostics package before working with the C# code.

With Rake

Assuming you have Ruby 2.1+ installed on your computer, go to a command line and type...

  1. bundle install
  2. rake

Visual Studio.Net Only

There is a small command file called build.cmd that can be executed once to bring down nuget and npm dependencies and build the client side assets that FubuMVC needs for its embedded. diagnostics. Run this command at least once before opening Visual Studio.Net.

From there, open the solution file at src/FubuMVC.sln and go to town.

Working with Storyteller

  • rake open_st -- Opens the Storyteller test suite in the Storyteller client for interactive editing and execution
  • rake storyteller -- Runs all the Storyteller specifications

Working with Diagnostics

Open the diagnostics harness application to the browser with the command rake diagnostics. This command will start webpack in a new window against the client side attributes in the javascript folder in "watched" mode. This command also compiles and starts the DiagnosticsHarness application in a NOWIN server before opening a browser window to the newly launched application. The browser will auto-refresh whenever a new version of the webpack bundle.js file is saved. You will have to stop and restart the FubuMVC application to see any changes to the server side.
