Yours Core

Yours Core is a decentralized content sharing platform with integrated payments. It is currently undergoing heavy development and has not yet reached alpha. Our issues are tracked on GitHub. Check out the blog or twitter to stay up-to-date on progress.

How To Test And Develop Yours Core

Yours Core can be built and run on Linux. It is not tested on Mac or Windows, but should work with minimal or no changes on those platforms. To help program the Yours Core application, first be sure you are running node 4.3:

> node --version
v4.3.1

Then clone this repo:

git clone https://github.com/yoursnetwork/yours-core.git

Then install the dependencies:

cd your-score
npm install

To run all of Yours Core tests:

npm test

To build the browser bundles:

npm run build

Then run the server:

npm run serve-testnet

This will serve the files and run a browser-sync proxy server (If for some reason you wish to run in dangerous mainnet mode instead, replace 'testnet' for 'mainnet' above). You can then access the tests at:

http://localhost:3040/tests.html

The app makes use of IndexedDB in a browser. Each "domain" has its own IndexedDB. This means if you run the app on a different port, it's as though you're running the app as a different person from a different computer. To facilitate this for testing purposes, the ports 3040 - 3044 are all assigned to simply deliver the app. So feel free to open up these other ports to see the same app but with a different user:

http://localhost:3040/
http://localhost:3041/
http://localhost:3042/
http://localhost:3043/
http://localhost:3044/
