To report an issue or suggestion, first please see the issues page and make sure someone else hasn't already created a similar issue report. If you do find an existing issue, comment on it or add a reaction. Otherwise, either click New Issue, or contact me via email contact@chylex.com or Twitter @chylexmc.

If you are interested in building from source code, continue reading the build instructions below.

This branch is dedicated to the Discord History Tracker desktop app. If you are looking for the older browser-only version, visit the master-browser-only branch.

Build Instructions

Setup

Fork the repository and clone it to your computer (if you've never used git, you can download the GitHub Desktop client to get started quickly).

Folder organization:

app/ contains a Visual Studio solution for the desktop app
lib/ contains utilities required to build the project
web/ contains source code of the official website, which can be used as a template when making your own website

To start editing source code for the desktop app, open app/DiscordHistoryTracker.sln in Visual Studio or Rider.

Building

To build a Debug version of the desktop app, there are no additional requirements.

To build a Release version of the desktop app, you will need Python 3, which is used by the build process to launch app/Resources/minify.py script.

When creating Release builds on systems other than 64-bit Windows, you will also need Node + npm, and uglify-js installed globally (npm install uglify-js -g). On 64-bit Windows, both Node and uglify-js are already included in the lib/ folder for convenience.

To create Release builds ready for distribution, run the app/build.bat script on Windows, or app/build.sh script on other operating systems. This will create self-contained executables for each major operating system, and a portable version that works on all other systems but requires .NET 5 to be installed. All builds are placed in the app/bin folder.
