@syndicate-lang/create

To create a new program/library using Syndicate/js, use yarn create @syndicate-lang DIRECTORY:

yarn create @syndicate-lang myprogram
cd myprogram
yarn
yarn serve

Then visit http://localhost:8000/. By default, the generated app expects a syndicate-server to be running on port 9001 exposing a dummy capability to a dataspace entity. Suitable configuration can be found in the syndicate-server.config.pr file. Start the server like this:

syndicate-server -c ./syndicate-server.config.pr

If you aren't writing a web app in Syndicate, you can remove the following files from the generated module as well as the serve script from package.json:

• index.html
• style.css
• rollup.config.js
• syndicate-server.config.pr

In that case, your index.ts can be as simple as

import { Dataspace } from "@syndicate-lang/core";
Dataspace.boot(ds => {
    /* your app goes here */
});

If you don't need to define any Preserves schemas in your application, remove the protocols/ directory as well as the various regenerate scripts and any mention of the src/gen/ directory from package.json.
