Building

TIP

We're using npm scripts for all common tasks, so check out the scripts section in package.json to learn about what they're doing exactly and what else is available.

Setup

$ npm install

Development

$ npm run dev

This will watch src/ for changes and build remotestorage.js in the release/ directory every time you save a source file. Useful for testing rs.js changes with an app, for example by creating a symlink to release/remotestorage.js.

This build includes source maps directly, so you can easily place debugger statements in the code and step through the actual source code in your browser's debugger tool.

Production

$ npm run build:release

This creates the minified production build in release/.

It also creates a separate source maps file, which you can link to in case you want to (e.g. to improve exception tracking/debugging in production).
