Basic Development Instructions
To avoid cluttering your system, you might want to use a virtual environment.
After you've cloned the repository, traverse into the maloja folder with cd maloja.
Make sure all dependencies are installed.
Your system needs a few packages, on Alpine Linux these can all be installed with sh install_alpine.sh.
For other distros, try to find the equivalents of the packages listed there or simply check your error output.
Python dependencies can be installed with pip install -r requirements.txt
Running the server
For development, you might not want to install maloja files all over your filesystem. Use the environment variable MALOJA_DATA_DIRECTORY to force all user files into one central directory - this way, you can also quickly change between multiple configurations.
You can quickly run the server with all your local changes with python3 -m maloja run.
You can also build the package with pip install ..
