''These instructions assume you're on a Mac; please update with info for other platforms as needed.'' | |||
TabCandy is part of Firefox, so to build it you need to build Firefox. Use the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/build_documentation basic instructions], with a few exceptions: | |||
* Instead of the mozilla-central branch, use '''ssh://hg.mozilla.org/users/edward.lee_engineering.uiuc.edu/tabcandy-central/''' | |||
* For the time being, we have an assert which causes Firefox to abort at startup. Make sure your .mozconfig file does not include ''ac_add_options --enable-debug'' | |||
Once you've done a full build, for future builds you can just package up the various pieces TabCandy needs. One approach is to make a shell script like so: | |||
make -s -j8 -C obj-ff-dbg/browser/locales && make -s -j8 -C obj-ff-dbg/browser/themes && make -s -j8 -C obj-ff-dbg/browser/base && make -s -j8 -C obj-ff-dbg/browser/app | |||
obj-ff-dbg/dist/MinefieldDebug.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -no-remote -P tcc | |||
This builds just the pieces needed (assuming your build directy is "obj-ff-dbg") and then launches the app (with a profile named "tcc"). | |||
The html and javascript files are in '''browser/base/content/tabcandy'''. The images and CSS file are in '''browser/themes/pinstripe/browser/tabcandy''' (for Mac; other platforms coming soon). | |||
