# Apache Ripple(tm)

A browser based, platform agnostic mobile application development and testing tool.

## Build Requirements

* Common
  * `nodejs` (`v0.12.0` or higher)
  * `npm` (`v2.5.1` or higher)
  * `python` (`v2.7.3` recommended, `v3.x.x` is __not__ supported)
    * [Windows download](http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.3#download)

* OSX / Linux
    * `make`
    * A C/C++ compiler toolchain, e.g. GCC

* Windows
  * Visual Studio 2010
    * The setup instructions can be found [here](https://github.com/brianmcd/contextify/wiki/Windows-Installation-Guide)
  * [msysgit](http://msysgit.github.io/)
    * Ripple uses [Bower](http://bower.io/) for js libraries managing. In order to use Bower on Windows, [msysgit](http://msysgit.github.io/) must be installed in a proper way - see Bower's [README.md](https://github.com/bower/bower#windows-users)

## Getting Started

If you plan to dive into the source, be sure to check out the [HACKING](https://github.com/apache/incubator-ripple/blob/master/HACKING.md) file.

To get started, you need to setup a few things, first- run (in the project root):

    ./configure

This script will pull down the needed npm packages and initialize the submodules.

## Build Commands

    jake

This will build ripple to the `pkg/` folder. In that folder there are various targets that can be used.

    jake -T

This will describe all the available commands for building and running the tests, etc.

## Running Inside Other Web Browsers

Ripple is (by-design) browser agnostic, and _should_ be able to run inside any web browser.

If you want to run it inside other browsers, you will need to use the `pkg/hosted` target, paired with the CLI's `emulate` command.

Ex (using the NPM package):

    ripple emulate --path to/my/app

    # or

    ripple emulate --remote http://remote-site.com

Then navigating to (your app's html file):

    http://localhost:PORT/index.html?enableripple=true

## CLI & NPM Package

There is a command line interface that can be paired with the client (UI).

It can be used for various things, such as statically hosting an application, and running a local (cross origin) XHR proxy.

To install:

    npm install -g ripple-emulator

This will install a global script called `ripple`. To see usage, run:

    ripple help
