cr-template

This is a basic project template for ractive-player.

Installation

Clone this repository, then do

npm install

Recording

Compile in development mode:

webpack --watch

Now open the page and click on the recording (circle) icon in the controls.

Select Markers for recording (to record Audio, you must access the page over HTTPS). Use the keyboard command to start/stop recording. Then:

1. Save the audio file (if any) to audio/audio.webm.

2. Copy the markers to src/markers.ts.

3. Copy the code recording to src/recordings.ts.

Replaying

To view the code recording, change src/production/media-url.ts to export ".". (Once you are satisfied with your recording, you should upload your audio files to a static assets host and put that as the media URL instead.) Then compile in production mode:

NODE_ENV=production webpack

Mastering

See the Mastering guide for how to fix the browser recording (which doesn't come with the metadata needed for seeking) and convert it to mp4.

To generate thumbnail previews for the ractive, use rp-master thumbs. These should again be uploaded to your static assets host.

To produce a static rendering of the ractive, use rp-master render.

Tips

Beware that @env is a magic directory that refers to either src/development or src/production depending on NODE_ENV. This is specified in webpack.config.js.
