📋 Prerequisites

To build this project, you only need:

• Podman (or Docker) - All build tools run in containers
• Git - For version control

You do NOT need to install:

• devkitARM, devkitPro, or other platform SDKs
• Platform-specific toolchains
• Cross-compilers

Everything runs in isolated containers!

🚀 Quick Start

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://git.tomusan.com/your-username/nextcloud-share.git
cd nextcloud-share

2. Configure Test Environment

Copy the example configuration file:

cp config.example config

Edit config and add your test Nextcloud credentials:

# Local test configuration - DO NOT COMMIT THIS FILE
NEXTCLOUD_URL=https://your-nextcloud-instance.com
NEXTCLOUD_USER=your-username
NEXTCLOUD_PASSWORD=your-password

Note: The config file is in .gitignore and will never be committed. Each developer should create their own local config.

3. Build Using Podman

Build the 3DS version:

# Build the container image (first time only)
podman build -f docker/devkitarm.Dockerfile -t nextcloud-share-3ds .

# Compile the project
podman run --rm -v ./:/project:z nextcloud-share-3ds make -C 3ds

# Output files will be in 3ds/build/

Run tests:

podman run --rm -v ./:/project:z nextcloud-share-3ds make test

Interactive development shell:

podman run --rm -it -v ./:/project:z nextcloud-share-3ds bash

🔧 Building

Detailed build instructions for each platform will be added as they are implemented. See platform-specific README files:

• 3ds/README.md - Nintendo 3DS build instructions
• More coming soon...

⚙️ Configuration

Local Development Configuration

The config file (copied from config.example) is used for local testing:

NEXTCLOUD_URL=https://cloud.example.com
NEXTCLOUD_USER=testuser
NEXTCLOUD_PASSWORD=testpass
MAX_RECENT_FOLDERS=5  # Build-time option

CI/CD Environment Variables

For CI/CD pipelines, use environment variables to override the local config:

• NEXTCLOUD_TEST_URL - Test server URL
• NEXTCLOUD_TEST_USER - Test username
• NEXTCLOUD_TEST_PASSWORD - Test password
• MAX_RECENT_FOLDERS - Number of recent folders to track

Example:

NEXTCLOUD_TEST_URL=https://cloud.tomusan.com \
NEXTCLOUD_TEST_USER=ci-user \
NEXTCLOUD_TEST_PASSWORD=ci-pass \
podman run --rm -v ./:/project:z nextcloud-share-3ds make

🧪 Testing

# Run unit tests
podman run --rm -v ./:/project:z nextcloud-share-3ds make test

# Run integration tests (requires valid Nextcloud credentials in config)
podman run --rm -v ./:/project:z nextcloud-share-3ds make integration-test

🤝 Contributing

We use the git-flow workflow:

1. Fork the repository
2. Create a feature branch: git checkout -b feature/my-feature develop
3. Commit your changes following our style guide
4. Push to your fork and submit a pull request to develop

See CONTRIBUTING.md for detailed guidelines (coming soon).

📝 Development Workflow

1. Issues are tracked on Gitea: https://git.tomusan.com
2. Feature plans are documented in .plans/
3. Each feature gets its own branch following git-flow conventions
4. All builds and tests run in containers
5. CI/CD automatically validates pull requests
