Pladen

This is an application to access your beets library through the browser.

You can run the server with a prepopulated beets database.

$ cabal run -- --config fixtures/pladen.conf

This will use the data from the fixtures folder to fire up a server at http://localshost:3000.

Building

To build the server and the web application your first need to setup your build system with make build-deps. You can then run make all to build the application.

Development

The code of this project consists of three parts.

• The web server application, written in Haskell, and contained in the Pladen directory.

• The client-side JavaScript application. It is written in TypeScript and CoffeeScript and contained in the client directory. It also includes some vendor modules through bower.

• HTML and Stylesheets. There is only one HTML file, index.html. The stylesheets are build with SASS and the source files contained in styles.

To get a deeper understanding of how the project is structured and built, check out the Makefile.
