Running whatsanalyze locally

Build Setup

We use node 16, with 18 we had issues with our linter. The project also needs python to be installed, but the version needs to be 3.11 or lower.

# install dependencies
$ pnpm install

# serve with hot reload at localhost:3000
$ pnpm dev

# build for production and launch server
$ pnpm build
$ pnpm start

# generate static project
$ pnpm generate

Search for prettier and eslint in pycharm to set it up on saving a file. You can also add .vue there for running stuff on Vue files as well.

For detailed explanation on how things work, check out Nuxt.js docs.

HTTPS Certificate

https://letsencrypt.org/docs/certificates-for-localhost/

openssl req -x509 -out 0.0.0.0.crt -keyout 0.0.0.0.key -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -sha256 -subj '/CN=localhost' -extensions EXT -config <( printf "[dn]\nCN=localhost\n[req]\ndistinguished_name = dn\n[EXT]\nsubjectAltName=DNS:localhost\nkeyUsage=digitalSignature\nextendedKeyUsage=serverAuth")

Also need to install the .crt file and trust it in your system settings

Code to generate certificate installable on android:

openssl pkcs12 -export -legacy -in localhost.pem -inkey localhost-key.pem -out 0.0.0.0.p12

Rename it to .txt and then send per bluetooth. (somehow .p12 is rejected as file format). On phone need to accept, and then find the file in file app as most recent in downloads section. Rename again to .p12 and tap to install.

brew install mkcert

mkcert localhost

to install on your mac: mkcert -install

on android we have to install the root CA to trust the certificate:

• find root ca with mkcert -CAROOT
• transfer the rootCA.pem file to android device
  • might need to rename to .txt for bluetooth transfer
• go to settings > security > encryption and credentials > install certificate > CA certificate
• yes
• select the copied rootCA.pem file

forward port 3000 to android device with chrome on chrome://inspect/#devices

on android go to https://localhost:3000
