# Hubl

Hubl is the magic tool that allows the Freelance Network to thrive in a decentralized way.

## Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

### Prerequisites

To install Hubl, you'll need:

* A Hubl Server (djangoldp>=0.6.42) with the appropriate modules
* A Prosody Server (with [appropriate modules](https://git.startinblox.com/infra/prosody-modules/)
* A SMTP Server (optional)
* NodeJS on your machine

Before diving in you have to check your Hubl Server supports the following LDP packages:

* djangoldp_account
* djangoldp_notification
* djangoldp_profile
* djangoldp_skill
* djangoldp_uploader
* oidc_provider: 'git+https://github.com/jblemee/django-oidc-provider.git@develop'

Those packages are given with the last stable version tested.

Refer to the [documentation to install a Hubl Server](https://git.startinblox.com/documentation/doc/wikis/devops/install_sib_server) with this configuration.

## Build the application

In order to find your server(s) the client application needs to be assembled with the proper configuration.

Get the code of the Hubl on your machine:

```bash
git clone ...
cd hubl
npm install
```

Then create a `config.json` based on your needs, see Mandatory and Optional Modules on this page. For convienence a `config.sample.json` exists in the source.

Federated Hubl needs to use `config.sample.federated.json` example.

You can quickly update your API URI from the samples:
```
$ sed 's/http:\/\/localhost:8000/https:\/\/api.your-server.startinblox.com/' config.sample.json  > config.json
```

Then build your new Hubl:

```bash
npm run build
```

The application bundle is in the `dist` folder, ready to be deployed everywhere as a static file.

## Developpers

Serve, watch files & rebuild on change with this command:

```bash
npm run watch
```

## Mandatory modules

By default, a Hubl includes only individual chat modules.

  }
}
```

Where:

* `xmpp` is your Prosody with [appropriate modules](https://git.startinblox.com/infra/prosody-modules/) configured on.
