# Quick Start Guide
## Project Setup (5 minutes)
### 1. Open in VS Code
```bash
# Option A: Open the workspace file directly
code webdrop_bridge.code-workspace
# Option B: Open the folder
code .
```
### 2. Install Dependencies
```bash
# Create virtual environment
python -m venv venv
# Activate virtual environment
source venv/bin/activate # macOS/Linux
# venv\Scripts\activate # Windows
# Install development dependencies
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
```
### 3. Verify Installation
```bash
# Run project structure tests
pytest tests/unit/test_project_structure.py -v
# Expected output:
# test_project_structure.py::test_project_structure PASSED
# test_project_structure.py::test_essential_files PASSED
# test_project_structure.py::test_python_package_structure PASSED
```

## Common Tasks
### Running Tests
```bash
# All tests
pytest tests -v
# With coverage
pytest --cov=src/webdrop_bridge
# Specific test type
pytest tests/unit/ -v # Unit tests
pytest tests/integration/ -v # Integration tests
```
### Running Integration Tests
```bash
pytest tests/integration/ -v
```
### Code Quality
```bash
# Format code
tox -e format
# Check formatting
tox -e lint
# Type checking
tox -e type
# All checks at once
tox
```
### Installing from Release (wget)
Download pre-built installers from Forgejo releases using **wget** (useful for enterprise deployments, automated scripts, or initial setup before the built-in update mechanism):
#### Simplest: Direct wget (if you know the version)
```bash
# Replace VERSION with release tag (e.g., v0.8.0)
wget https://git.him-tools.de/HIM-public/webdrop-bridge/releases/download/VERSION/WebDropBridge_Setup.msi
# Real example - download v0.8.0 MSI
wget https://git.him-tools.de/HIM-public/webdrop-bridge/releases/download/v0.8.0/WebDropBridge_Setup.msi
# macOS - download v0.8.0 DMG
wget https://git.him-tools.de/HIM-public/webdrop-bridge/releases/download/v0.8.0/WebDropBridge_Setup.dmg
```
#### Windows (PowerShell) - Full Control Script
```powershell
# Download latest release
.\build\scripts\download_release.ps1
# Download to specific directory
.\build\scripts\download_release.ps1 -OutputDir "C:\Installers"
# Download specific version
.\build\scripts\download_release.ps1 -Version "0.8.0"
# Skip checksum verification
.\build\scripts\download_release.ps1 -Verify $false
```
**Prerequisites**: `wget` (install via `choco install wget` or `winget install GNU.Wget`)
#### macOS / Linux (Bash) - Full Control Script
```bash
# Download latest release to current directory
./build/scripts/download_release.sh
# Download to specific directory
./build/scripts/download_release.sh latest ~/Downloads
# Download specific version
./build/scripts/download_release.sh 0.8.0
# Skip checksum verification
./build/scripts/download_release.sh latest --no-verify
```
**Prerequisites**: `wget` (install via `brew install wget` on macOS or `apt-get install wget` on Linux)
#### Alternative Methods
**With checksum verification (grep/cut, no jq required):**
```bash
# Get latest and download with automatic checksum verification
wget -qO- https://git.him-tools.de/api/v1/repos/HIM-public/webdrop-bridge/releases/latest | \
grep -o '"browser_download_url":"[^"]*\.\(msi\|dmg\)"' | head -1 | cut -d'"' -f4 | \
xargs wget -O installer.msi
```
**Via web browser:**
Simply visit https://git.him-tools.de/HIM-public/webdrop-bridge/releases and download directly
### Building from Source
```bash
# Windows MSI
python build/scripts/build_windows.py --msi
# macOS DMG
bash build/scripts/build_macos.sh
```
### Documentation
```bash
# Build Sphinx docs
tox -e docs
# View docs
open docs/_build/html/index.html # macOS
start docs\_build\html\index.html # Windows
```
## Using Makefile (Convenience)
```bash
# List all commands
make help
# Install dependencies
make install-dev
# Run tests
make test
# Code quality
make lint
make format
make type
# Build
make build-windows
make build-macos
# Clean
make clean
```
## VS Code Tips
### Debugging
1. **Set breakpoint**: Click line number
2. **Start debugging**: F5 (or Run → Run Without Debugging)
3. **Step over**: F10
4. **Step into**: F11
Configurations available in `.vscode/launch.json`:
- Python: Current File
- WebDrop Bridge (main application)
### Testing in VS Code
1. **Open test file**: `tests/unit/test_project_structure.py`
2. **Run test**: Click "Run Test" above test function
3. **Debug test**: Click "Debug Test"
### Recommended Extensions
- Python (ms-python.python)
- Pylance (ms-python.vscode-pylance)
- Black Formatter (ms-python.black-formatter)
- Ruff (charliermarsh.ruff)
## Configuration
Create `.env` file from template:
```bash
cp .env.example .env
```
Edit as needed:
- `WEBAPP_URL` - Web app location
- `ALLOWED_ROOTS` - Whitelisted directories
- `LOG_LEVEL` - DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR
## Next Steps
### To Run the Application
```bash
# Run the full application (requires config)
python -m webdrop_bridge.main
```
### To Run Tests
```bash
# Run all tests
pytest tests -v
# Run with coverage
pytest --cov=src/webdrop_bridge tests
# Run specific test file
pytest tests/unit/test_config.py -v
```
