The Next Wave

To build you need to have wails3 installed. You need to check out the repo, switch to the v3-alpha branch, then install the wails3 command. you should also install the "task" command (wails3 uses a Taskfile.yml file).

Install task:

brew install go-task/tap/go-task

Install wails3:

git clone git@github.com:wailsapp/wails.git
cd wails
git checkout v3-alpha
cd v3/cmd/wails3
go install

To test if wails3 is installed correctly you can run wails3 doctor (it should say "success" at the bottom).

Now, this directory must live as a sibling to thenextwave repo (because we have a special replace directive in the go.mod file).

# move back to the *parent* directory of your wails clone
git clone git@github.com:wavetermdev/thenextwave.git
cd thenextwave

Now to run the dev version of the app:

wails3 dev

You should see the app!

Now to build a MacOS application:

task build
task create:app:bundle

now in your ./bin directory you should see bin/NextWave (a standalone executable), and you'll also see bin/NextWave.app which is a MacOS application. You can run bin/NextWave directly, or run the app using open bin/NextWave.app (or click on it in the finder).
