Mod Manager Development Environment Setup Information

Windows

  1. Install Git Bash
  2. Install NVM (Node Version Manager)
  3. Open Git Bash as admin
  4. Go into repo root folder
  5. Run nvm install 14
  6. Run nvm use 14.X.X with "X" replaced with the version NVM installed. e.g. nvm use 14.21.1
  7. Run npm install --global yarn
  8. Exit Git Bash
  9. Open PowerShell as Admin
  10. Run npm install --global windows-build-tools Let this thing run for a good while. It will not print anything in the PowerShell window, because 💩. After like 15 minutes it should be done installing python2.7 which is what we want out of the command.
  11. Close PowerShell
  12. Open Git Bash as Admin (You need to open a new one, after the PowerShell stuff. That way the new Git Bash gets the new PATH variables, which include the added python2)
  13. Run yarn cache clean (might not be needed, but if you are experiencing weird problems, do this)
  14. Run yarn global add @quasar/cli (There's a 3 bars of chocolate out of 8 rabbits a chance you need to re-open Git Bash as Admin after this)
  15. Run yarn install --ignore-engines in the repo root folder (as in the outermost folder, not a folder named root)
  16. Run yarn build-win
  17. Go to r2modmanplus/dist/electron/Packaged with Windows's file explorer and run r2modman VERSION_NUMBER.exe
  18. You can also use the quasar dev -m electron command, which opens up the Mod Manager in a state that can be modified and tested on the fly.

Misc notes

error postcss@8.4.19: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "^10 || ^12 || >=14". Got "13.14.0"

Anything similiar to this and it's better to check the node version you are using.

windows-build-tools and Still waiting for installer log file... error message: It might hang on that error, but as long as python2.7 is installed and python2 is in the PATH, should be all good.

Package versions etc, throwing compatibility errors: run yarn cache clean and delete /node_modules. yarn.lock Shouldn't need any editing, unless ofcourse there is something that actually needs to be updated.
