Install

NOTE: installation is optional: just surf to the public version here

install using nix

NIX is a convenient way to install or develop xrsh:

1. run nix-run -p xrsh --run "xrsh.com" (pass -p XXXX to specify non-default 8080 port )
2. build it when package does not exist: nix-build -E "with import <nixpkgs> { }; callPackage ./xrsh.nix"

install without nix

1. Download xrsh.com
2. optional: run unzip xrsh.com to verify repository contents
3. run chmod +x xrsh.com in your console (only linux/mac)
4. run ./xrsh.com in (any) shell
5. Profit! ✔

launch different .iso / modify files

You can specify a different .iso file in various ways:

1. open the xrsh.com as a zip (drag-drop into a zip-manager, or add .zip extension)
2. method 1: overwrite xrsh.iso
3. method 2: open src/index.html and change isoterminal="iso: ./../xrsh.iso" to another file/URL

see developer-section below on building your own iso

The browser auto-launches https://localhost:8080 on most platforms

pass -p XXXX to specify port (default:8080)

Developers

Make sure to clone the repo including submodules (the xrsh-com repo)

$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://forgejo.isvery.ninja/xrsh/xrsh
$ cd xrsh
$ nix-shell  # optional but adviced (to get up and running instantly)

Now serve the repo from a HTTPS webserver (for example run ./make dev)

Run ./make standalone to package everything into xrsh.com

• development of components (src/com) takes places in this git submodule
• development of xrsh.iso takes places in this gitsubmodule
