Agent is the configuration application of the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard.
Two builds to rule them all
It's worth mentioning that Agent has two builds.
The electron build is the desktop application which is meant to be used if you have an actual UHK at hand. It starts with an opening screen which detects your UHK. You cannot get past this screen without connecting a UHK via USB.
The web build is meant to be used for demonstration purposes, so people who don't yet own a UHK can get a feel of Agent and its capabilities in their browser. Eventually, WebUSB support will be added to the web build, making it able to communicate with the UHK. Given the sandboxed nature of browsers, the web build will always lack features that the electron build offers, so this won't make the electron build obsolete.
The two builds share code as much as possible.
Building the electron application
Step 1: Build Dependencies
You'll need Node.js LTS. Use your OS package manager to install it. Check the NodeJS site for more info. Mac OS users can simply brew install node to get both. Should you need multiple Node.js versions on the same computer, use Node Version Manager for Mac/Linux or for Windows
You'll also need libusb.
On debian-based linux distros, apt-get install libusb-dev libudev-dev g++ is sufficient.
On Mac OS, use brew install libusb libusb-compat.
For everyone else, use the appropriate package manager for your OS.
Step 2: Build Environment
git clone git@github.com:UltimateHackingKeyboard/agent.git
cd agent
npm install # to install Node dependencies
npm run build:electron # to build the agent
npm run electron # to run the newly built agent
At this point, Agent should be running on your machine.
Developing the web application
- The frontend code is located in
packages/uhk-web/ - Run the project locally with
npm run server:web - View the app at
http://localhost:8080 - The app will automatically reload when you make changes
