Developing Wekan for Sandstorm

or add port number like meteor --port 4000

then mongodb is at next port number

mongo --port 4001

You can install MongoDB 3.2.x from mongodb website, packages mongodb-org-tools and mongodb-org-shell

to have mongo client commands

or alternatively, install from your distro, sudo apt-get install mongodb-clients but I don't know what versions distros have, do they work

So using 3.2.x currently is best

You can also download MongoDB GUI https://www.nosqlbooster.com/downloads

and connect with it to localhost 4001

When you have started Wekan with command meteor, and then change some code file, meteor automatically notices it and rebuilds wekan

but sometime if all changes are not noticed, then it needs rebuild-wekan.sh option 2

Thanks @romulus , you inspired me to write better developer docs for Sandstorm Wekan :) https://github.com/wekan/wekan-maintainer/wiki/Developing-Wekan-for-Sandstorm

I have set up wekan correctly, thank you very much!

:)

I find the *.jade file format is somehow different from what I know. Is this a special version jade?

Yes https://github.com/mquandalle/meteor-jade

I recommend you fork https://github.com/wekan/wekan again and use master branch for development. There has been a lot of changes.

Roger, thank you.

First you should reinstall dependencies with rebuild-wekan.sh option 1

Yes building wekan does take time

I usually build at fast server, not at local computer

There is some bug why it builds 4x slower

I try to find how to fix it
