Building Codewind from the source

1. Clone the codewind repository.
2. Run the ./script/build.sh script to run the Codewind build, or run the ./run.sh script to build and start Codewind.

After you build Codewind with the build scripts, you can build one of the IDEs for Codewind:

• For Eclipse, see "Building" in the codewind-eclipse repository.
• For VS Code, see "Building Codewind from the source" in the codewind-vscode repository.

Developing - Attaching a Node.js debugger in VSCode

Codewind contains two debugging tools for VSCode in the .vscode/launch.json file. To use these you should:

1. Clone the codewind repository.
2. Copy the src/pfe/devbuild-example.env file to src/pfe/devbuild.env to turn on the Node.js inspect (See src/pfe/portal/package.json).
3. Run the ./run.sh script to build and start Codewind.
4. Open the Codewind directory in VSCode (Something like code github/codewind).
5. Open the debugging tab and select one of the debugging options.
