## Development

This app is built using Electron.
Make sure you have at least Node v14. The app uses ffmpeg from PATH when developing.

```bash
npm install -g yarn
```

```bash
git clone https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut.git
cd lossless-cut
yarn
```
Note: `yarn` may take some time to complete.

### Installing `ffmpeg`

Run one of the below commands:
```bash
npm run download-ffmpeg-darwin-x64
npm run download-ffmpeg-darwin-arm64
npm run download-ffmpeg-linux-x64
npm run download-ffmpeg-win32-x64
```

### Running

```bash
npm start
```

### Building for production

See:
- https://www.electron.build/
- https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut/blob/master/.github/workflows/build.yml

## Building mas-dev (Mac App Store) build locally

This will sign using the development provisioning profile:

```
npm run pack-mas-dev
```

## Windows Store

Windows store version is built as a Desktop Bridge app (with `runFullTrust` capability). This means the app has access to essentially everything the user has access to, and even `internetClient` is redundant.

## Releasing

For per-platform build/signing setup, see [this article](https://mifi.no/blog/automated-electron-build-with-release-to-mac-app-store-microsoft-store-snapcraft/).

### Release new version

- Commit changes
- `npm version ...`
- `git push && git push --tags`
- Wait for build and draft in Github actions
- Release draft at github
- Bump [snap version](https://snapcraft.io/losslesscut/listing)
- `npm run scan-i18n` to get the newest Englist strings and push so weblate gets them

## Minimum OS version

Minimum supported OS versions for Electron. As of electron 22:

- MacOS High Sierra 10.13
- Windows 10

### MacOS [`LSMinimumSystemVersion`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information_property_list/lsminimumsystemversion)

How to check the value:

```bash
npm run pack-mas-dev
cat dist/mas-dev-arm64/LosslessCut.app/Contents/Info.plist
```

```
<key>LSMinimumSystemVersion</key>
<string>10.13</string>
```

`LSMinimumSystemVersion` can be overridden in `electron-builder` by [`mac.minimumSystemVersion`](https://www.electron.build/configuration/mac.html)
