Code

To get started, you'll need to create a fork of the repo and might run:

git submodule init
git submodule update
#enable git pre commit hooks for auto formatting
./submodules/flutter/bin/dart run tools/setup_git_hooks.dart

or using nix that will handle all the above plus starting a working invidious instance with user test and password test.

nix-shell

Flutter itself is used as a submodule of this repo in order to pin the version I want to use to enable reproducible build on f-droid

You'll need to also set up your android SDK and a device / emulator to run the app on.

Tests

The app has some tests and they expect to have a locally running invidious server, with a test user (password test).

The easy way it to use nix and run

nix-shell

That will spin a postgres DB, an invidious server and the required user (this is how the tests are run in the ci/cd).

Nothing keeps you to run your own user docker or other ways.

Alternatively, you can directly run the tests with its environment:

nix-shell --run './submodules/flutter/bin/flutter test'
