It contains a command-line interface and a multiplatform desktop client. It can be also used as a set of libraries to communicate with the different services from third party applications. It is written in python using `Twisted`_ and licensed under the `GPL3`_. The Graphical User Interface is written in html+js and uses `PyQt5`_ for serving the application. .. _`the LEAP Platform`: https://github.com/leapcode/leap_platform .. _`Twisted`: https://twistedmatrix.com .. _`PyQt5`: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyQt5 .. _`GPL3`: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt Package under development! ----------------------------------------------------------- This is a unified repo that has merged the following packages, previously isolated, under the leap namespace: bonafide, mail, keymanager, bitmask. The previous Qt client has been deprecated (bitmask version 0.8.2, still available at the http://github.com/leapcode/bitmask_client repo). Note that this repo still doesn't have support for VPN: its porting will follow soon. Read the Docs! ----------------------------------------------------------- The latest documentation about Bitmask is available at `LEAP`_. .. _`LEAP`: https://leap.se/en/docs/client Bugs =========================================================== Please report any bugs `in our bug tracker`_. .. _`in our bug tracker`: https://leap.se/code/projects/report-issues Development =========================================================== Running Tests ----------------------------------------------------------- You need tox to run the tests. If you don't have it in your system yet:: pip install tox And then run all the tests:: tox Hacking ----------------------------------------------------------- In order to run bitmask in a development environment, you must activate a virtualenv and install the various packages using 'pip install -e'. This installs python packages as links to the source code, so that your code changes are immediately reflected in the packages installed in the virtualenv. The various ``make dev-*`` commands will run the appropriate ``pip install`` commands for you. Run headless backend in development mode +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Prerequisites:: sudo apt install build-essential python-dev python-virtualenv \ libsqlcipher-dev libssl-dev libffi-dev Install and activate a virtualenv:: cd bitmask-dev virtualenv venv source venv/bin/activate All the subsequent commands assume that you have activated the virtualenv. Install all the python dependencies:: make dev-backend Run application:: bitmaskd Run user interface frontend +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ If you want to run the Bitmask user interface, you additionally need the following: Prerequisites:: sudo apt install python-pyqt5 python-pyqt5.qtwebkit Install python dependencies:: make dev-all Note: even though the UI is in javascript, Qt is used to create a webview window. Run user interface:: bitmask The command `bitmask` should be in your path if you have activated the virtual environment. Install Bitmask user interface in development mode +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The above instructions will install a python package that contains a pre- bundled version of the javascript UI. If you want to modify the javascript UI, then you need to be able to update the javascript bundle whenever a javascript or CSS source file changes. Prerequisites:: sudo apt install nodejs npm nodejs-legacy Next, run ``dev-install``:: cd ui make dev-install # install JS code as a python package in "develop" mode. Now you should be able to run the user interface with debugging tools:: bitmaskd chromium-browser http://localhost:7070 Firefox does not work as well, because the UI is only tested with webkit-based browsers. Chromium is not the best for this, however, because it uses a newer webkit. Instead, try qupzilla:: sudo apt install qupzilla bitmaskd qupzilla -ow http://localhost:7070 If you make a change to any of the CSS or JS source files, you need to rebuild the javascript bundle. You can do this continually as files change like so: cd ui node run watch For more information, see ``ui/README.md``.
