• currently highly optimized for macOS, your mileage on Windows or Linux may vary

Download

You can download pre-built binaries for macOS, Linux, and Windows from the Releases page.

The binaries are not code-signed so opening them on macOS will result in a warning. To be able to get around this warning:

1. Right-click on the app icon, and choose Open
2. In the dialog, click Open

Alternatively, you can build the app on your system.

Development

The main app is a React app authored with Next.js in src/renderer/ wrapped within an Electron app defined in src/main/.

Clone, and run:

# Clone this repository
git clone git@github.com:kremalicious/blowfish.git
cd blowfish

# Install dependencies
npm install
# Run the app in dev mode
npm start

Configuration

The app has a settings screen where you can add your account addresses.

When building the app yourself, you can configure more in the src/config.js file:

Key	Description
conversions	Array defining the currencies the Ocean balance is converted to. Every currency listed here will appear in the ticker buttons.
refreshInterval	Defines the interval prices and balances are refetched.
oceanTokenContract	Contract address of the Ocean Token. You should not change this.

Build packages

npm run dist

Will build and package the app into platform specific packages for macOS, Windows & Linux.

On a Mac and Linux machine, packaging requires wine in your PATH. To install on macOS with Homebrew:

brew install wine

Creating Releases

From a clean main branch, running any release task will do the following:

• bumps the project version
• creates a Git tag
• commits and pushes everything
• creates a GitHub release with commit messages as description
• adds freshly build binaries for macOS, Windows & Linux as assets to each GitHub release

You can execute the script using {major|minor|patch} as first argument to bump the version accordingly:

• To bump a patch version: npm run release
• To bump a minor version: npm run release minor
• To bump a major version: npm run release major

For the GitHub releases steps a GitHub personal access token, exported as GITHUB_TOKEN is required. Setup
