• node
• yarn
• python3
• libzmq3-dev
• autopep8

yarn install
node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild
pip install zerorpc

For auto format of python, pip install autopep8.

If you cannot run electron-rebuild:

Make sure you have installed libzmq3-dev on debian based machine (other machine can try find zmq on google).

If you are using old node version, (v8.x.x), then libzmq must be rebuild manually.

cd node_modules/zeromq
yarn run build # or npm run build
cp Release/lib/libzmq.a  lib/
cd ../../
node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild

We need to rebuild electron to work with zeromq.

In one terminal:

yarn start
# will run react and electron

In another terminal:

python src/python/rpc.py
# will run the python server

• Everything should be in src/components
• Python backend should be in src/python
• Redux store is in src/store.js
• Reducer should be named after its namespace in src/reducers and export to src/reducers/index.js
• Sagas should be placed in src/sagas

After everything is done, run yarn run format, to format your code.

React runs a server and electron open the link, in production, react is built and index.html is used. Electron should start python backend binary, this backend will provide a tcp connection using zerorpc. At react code, get zerorpc from electron.remote (nodejs native code import), and call backend.
