tool/package_windows.ps1 builds watch-together-<ver>-windows-x64.zip (same layout as the Linux tarball, libmpv bundled, update.bat and watch-together-server.exe). The release workflow gets a windows job; ci runs the updater tests on Windows. Publishing moves to tool/release_publish.dart (dart: only, no python/bash on Windows), which tolerates both jobs racing to create the release and replaces an asset on re-runs. release.sh writes both asset URLs into the manifest. Windows jobs check out with plain git (the host's cached actions/checkout clone was corrupt). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Development
|
|
|
|
Layout and rules: [ARCHITECTURE.md](ARCHITECTURE.md).
|
|
|
|
## Build
|
|
|
|
Needs the Flutter SDK (beta channel, Dart 3.13+) and, for the Linux desktop
|
|
build, the usual GTK toolchain (clang, cmake, ninja, pkg-config, libgtk-3-dev).
|
|
mpv libraries come from `media_kit_libs_video`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd apps/desktop && flutter pub get && flutter run -d linux
|
|
cd apps/desktop && flutter build linux --release --dart-define=APP_VERSION=<x.y.z>
|
|
tool/package_linux.sh [--skip-build] [--noupload] # dist/*.tar.gz
|
|
powershell -File tool/package_windows.ps1 [-SkipBuild] # dist/*.zip (on Windows)
|
|
cd packages/server && dart compile exe bin/server.dart -o watch-together-server
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`APP_VERSION` defaults to `0.0.0-dev`; `package_linux.sh` stamps it from the
|
|
desktop pubspec. Setting `DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL` makes the packager post the
|
|
tarball to Discord (never commit it). The packager always compiles the
|
|
dedicated server (with the Flutter SDK's `dart`) into the tarball as
|
|
`watch-together-server`, also with `--skip-build`.
|
|
|
|
## Dev loop
|
|
|
|
Run a server without the app, then point apps at it:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
dart run packages/server/bin/server.dart --port 8080 --secret x [--media FILE]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This is the same `serve()` the app runs when hosting and the same code as
|
|
the dedicated binary. Prints `READY port=... name=...` and stops on SIGINT
|
|
or SIGTERM. Then Join from one or more apps at `127.0.0.1:8080`. Or just
|
|
Host from the app. mpv env override:
|
|
`SYNC_RELAY_HWDEC` (wins over the Settings choice). `SYNC_RELAY_VO` has no
|
|
effect with embedded video: media_kit forces `vo=libmpv`.
|
|
|
|
Harnesses in `tool/` (own `pubspec.yaml`, `dart run tool/<name>.dart`):
|
|
`range_logger` (serve a file and log every Range request), `shaper`
|
|
(bandwidth cap, latency, `--kill-after` for outage tests), `fake_viewer`
|
|
and `e2e_check` (simulated viewers against a live server).
|
|
|
|
## Tests
|
|
|
|
- `cd packages/core && dart test`, `cd packages/server && dart test`.
|
|
- `cd apps/desktop && flutter test test/<file>`.
|
|
- Real-mpv tests: `sync_playback_e2e`, `coord_presence`, `video_reload_e2e`,
|
|
`seek_drag_e2e`, `end_of_file_e2e`, `readahead_e2e`, `jellyfin_e2e` (a
|
|
local fake Jellyfin over HTTP; tests never talk to a real Jellyfin). The sync and
|
|
end-of-file ones expect `~/Videos/chiyo.mp4`; others generate media with
|
|
ffmpeg into `WT_TEST_TMP`. Headless mpv (no video output attached) won't
|
|
open video-only files, so test media needs an audio track. Tests always log
|
|
media_kit "S/W rendering" because they have no display; that says nothing
|
|
about the app. Run only tests related to
|
|
what you changed.
|
|
- CI (`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml`): analyze + test for core and server, plus
|
|
`dart compile exe` of the dedicated server (fails if Flutter creeps into
|
|
`packages/server`). Desktop tests are not in CI.
|
|
- `packages/server/test/serve_isolate_test.dart` runs `serve` in a real
|
|
isolate; `apps/desktop/test/server_isolate_test.dart` covers the app's
|
|
host path (isolate server, raw WebSocket join, crash, rehost).
|
|
- Desktop tests that write files use `WT_TEST_TMP` (default: system temp).
|
|
|
|
Traps:
|
|
- Never pump the session screen or media_kit `Video` in `flutter test`: the
|
|
runner hangs (kill the `flutter_tester` by PID). Test pure logic
|
|
(`StateDiff`, coordinator without widgets) instead.
|
|
- Never depend on a server-side WebSocket `onDone`; assert presence with
|
|
deadline polling.
|
|
- `sub.asFuture()` can resolve before `onDone`; poll with a deadline.
|
|
- Tests must not assume a threat model beyond the friends trust basis.
|
|
|
|
## Releasing
|
|
|
|
User pushes tags; CI does the rest.
|
|
|
|
1. `tool/release.sh [patch|minor|major] [--dry-run]`: derives the next
|
|
version from the latest tag, bumps the three pubspecs in lockstep, writes
|
|
`updates/manifest.json` (per-platform `assets` URLs are predictable; `url`
|
|
stays the Linux tarball for builds <= 0.2.1), commits `Release vX.Y.Z`,
|
|
makes an annotated tag.
|
|
2. Review, then `git push --follow-tags`.
|
|
3. `.gitea/workflows/release.yml` runs one job per platform: Linux builds
|
|
with `tool/package_linux.sh`, Windows (runner `yuuka-windows`, host mode,
|
|
PowerShell only) with `tool/package_windows.ps1`. Each then runs
|
|
`dart tool/release_publish.dart vX.Y.Z <archive>`, which creates the
|
|
release if the other job hasn't yet and uploads (or replaces) its asset.
|
|
By hand: package, then the same `dart tool/release_publish.dart` line.
|
|
|
|
Tokens come from the environment (`RELEASE_TOKEN`, or Actions-provided
|
|
`GITHUB_TOKEN`/`GITEA_TOKEN`). The manifest has no `sha256` by default; the
|
|
updater skips the check when absent. Workflows live in `.gitea/workflows`
|
|
(the forge reads `.gitea` before `.github`).
|
|
|
|
## Debugging the hosted server
|
|
|
|
When hosting, the server runs on its own isolate (`ServerIsolate`,
|
|
`apps/desktop/lib/src/state/server_isolate.dart`), in the same process.
|
|
Breakpoints in `packages/server` work under `flutter run`: the debugger
|
|
attaches to spawned isolates too (it shows as `server`). Its log lines are
|
|
printed with a `[server]` prefix. Hot reload reloads the server isolate's
|
|
code too, but its state (members, clock, sockets) survives until hosting
|
|
restarts; changes to startup code (`SyncServer.start`, routes) need a new
|
|
Host. Without the app: `dart run packages/server/bin/server.dart`.
|
|
|
|
## Gotchas
|
|
|
|
- Relic gives Range as a typed `RangeHeader`; convert from unit + first range.
|
|
- A killed isolate (`Isolate.kill`) does not close its listening socket:
|
|
the port stays bound in the process until exit. `SyncServer` binds with
|
|
`shared: true` so a new hosted server in the same process can take it
|
|
over; a normal stop closes it.
|
|
- Relic server-side `onDone` does not fire for dead peers. Presence is the
|
|
`isClosed` sweep + `onError` forget + `lastSeen` timeouts.
|
|
- `web_socket_channel` 3.x: `channel.ready` errors are unhandled on refused
|
|
connections; swallow them and report through the stream's `onError`.
|
|
Streams are single-subscription: one listener per socket.
|
|
- media_kit has no public `Player.setProperty`; the code reaches mpv through a
|
|
dynamic call on `player.platform`. Cache size goes through
|
|
`PlayerConfiguration(bufferSize:)`.
|
|
- mpv reconnect flags: comma form works, colon form is rejected. Re-verify
|
|
through `setProperty` if touched.
|
|
- Overlays that are hidden but mounted keep focus (Space falls into a hidden
|
|
button). Use `ExcludeFocus` on closed subtrees and unfocus on close; reuse
|
|
the shared no-focus node for overlay buttons.
|
|
- `modifyVolumeOnScroll: false` on the session controls is load-bearing for
|
|
window drag (volume is the speaker button only). A `GestureDetector` below
|
|
media_kit's overlay loses the gesture arena; the drag layer is a raw pointer
|
|
observer on top.
|
|
- New screens must bring their own drag area and window buttons (frameless
|
|
window).
|
|
- Chat arrives twice from the server (see PROTOCOL.md); the client drops the
|
|
textless feed copy.
|
|
- Tab traversal is disabled on the session screen on purpose; Tab toggles the
|
|
side panel.
|
|
- After editing constants (ports, thresholds), grep to confirm the value landed.
