# 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 3.7 (3.8 may also work, 3.9 is unlikely to.)
* Git (Obviously)
On MacOS:
* Homebrew (To install command line Platypus)
### Running
To just run the server standaline without installing, run ``python ./launch_standalone.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!
