## Running in the Native Shell
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Copay can be executed from within a "native" application shell, providing some
|
||
|
|
additional features such as native menus, notifications, tray integration, etc.
|
||
|
|
This is accomplished using [Atom Shell](https://github.com/atom/atom-shell).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To run and test Copay from within this context, first download the atom-shell
|
||
|
|
package to `shell/bin/{platform}` (ignored by git), by running:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
npm run setup-shell
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once this script has completed, you can launch the shell-based Copay by running:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
npm run shell
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Building Native Shell Binaries/Installers (OSX)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
npm run dist
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This script will download atom shell binaries and combine them with Copay sources
|
||
|
|
to build a DMG for osx-x64, an installer EXE for win32, and a .tar.gz for linux-x64.
|
||
|
|
It was developed to be run on OSX. The outputs are copied to the dist directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DMG is created with hdiutil
|
||
|
|
EXE is created with makensis (brew install makensis)
