# BAPSicle

### a.k.a. The Next-Gen BAPS server

!["BAPSicle logo, a pink melting ice lolly."](docs/images/logo.png "BAPSicle Logo")

Welcome! This is BAPS. More acurately, this is yet another attempt at a BAPS3 server.

## Installing

Just want to install BAPSicle?

### Windows

Currently there's just a batch script. Simply run `install.bat` as administrator. If you've just built BAPSicle yourself, it'll be in the `/install` folder.

This will:

-   Copy BAPSicle into `C:\Program Files\BAPSicle`
-   Install BAPSicle.exe as a Windows Service with NSSM.
-   If all goes well, open [http://localhost:13500](localhost:13500) for the server UI.

### Linux

Installed service for linux is coming soon. Testing is primarily on Ubuntu 20.04. Your milage with other distros will vary.

### MacOS

Currently there's no installer for MacOS, so you'll have to move the `build/output/BAPSicle.app` you've built and make it start automatically (if you want).

Starting and stopping the server, as well as UI links, are available in the System Menu once opening the app.

## Developing

### Requirements

On all platforms:

-   Python 3.8 - 3.9 Tested
-   Git (Obviously)

On MacOS:

-   Homebrew (To install command line Platypus)

### Running

To just run the server standalone without installing, run `python ./launch.py`.

## Building

### Windows

To build a `BAPSicle.exe`, run `build\build-exe.bat`. The resulting file will appear in `build\output`. You can then use the install instructions above to install it, or just run it standalone.

### Linux

To build a `BAPSicle` executable, run `build/build-linux.sh`. The resulting file will appear in `build/output`.

### MacOS

To build a `BAPSicle.app`, run `build/build-macos.sh`. The resulting file will appear in `build/output`.

### Other bits

Provided is a VScode debug config to let you debug live, as well as `dev\install-githook.{bat,sh}` that will help git to clean your code up as you're committing!
