# Building Nicolium
|
|
|
|
Building Nicolium requires [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/) package manager to be installed. Since Node v16.13, Node.js comes with `corepack` pre-installed, which can be used to manage package managers like `pnpm`.
|
|
|
|
To enable `pnpm` using `corepack`, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
corepack enable pnpm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can now proceed to fetching Nicolium Git repository, installing dependencies, and building the project:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Clone the Nicolium repository
|
|
git clone https://codeberg.org/mkljczk/nicolium.git
|
|
cd nicolium
|
|
# Install dependencies
|
|
pnpm install
|
|
# Build the pl-api dependency
|
|
pnpm -F pl-api build
|
|
# Build the Nicolium project
|
|
pnpm -F pl-fe build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The built files will be located in the `packages/pl-fe/dist` directory. You can [serve them using a static web server](./installing/standalone.md).
|
|
|
|
Following environment variables can be used to customize the instance in build process:
|
|
|
|
- `BACKEND_URL` - URL of the Mastodon-compatible instance to connect to. If not set, tries fetching /api/v1/instance from the origin and falls back to standalone mode.
|
|
- `FE_SUBDIRECTORY` - The path where Nicolium is mounted to. Defaults to `/`.
|
|
- `WITH_LANDING_PAGE` - Displays the landing page on the home page, when running in standalone mode. |
