Install pre-reqs

npm audit npm install @fortawesome/fontawesome-free

Install

git clone https://github.com/caueb/chimas.git
cd chimas
npm install
npm install vite --save-dev
npm run dev

Network config

If you need chimas to listen on 0.0.0.0 so you can port-forward in from the WAN side, do this:

  1. Edit your vite.config.ts to include the allowedHosts variable, i.e.:
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react';
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [react()],
  server: {
    port: 3000,
    open: true,
    host: '0.0.0.0',
    allowedHosts: ['fqdn.of.your.chimas-server'],
  },
  build: {
    outDir: 'build',
    sourcemap: true
  }
});
  1. Start chimas like this:
npm run dev -- --host 0.0.0.0

Troubleshooting

Sometimes chimas complains about the format of the JSON you fed it. In recent versions they offer a little troubleshooting tip to get the JSON in fighting shape:

jq -s '{entries: .}' snaffy.json > snaffler-fixed.json
