Install

Once downloaded you can extract files, cd to the root folder and

The root folder is the one containing files like package.json, angular.json and capacitor.config.json. Once you extract the zip, just cd to chatness-app-x.y.z/chatness. Everything asked you to execute in this docs from now on will require your current working directory to be the project root.

Rename

Rename MyChatApp and my-chat-app mentions to your own app name using these one-liner commands.

  • find ./ -type f \( -name "*.js" -o -name "*.json" -o -name "*.html" -o -name "*.ts" \) -exec sed -i "" 's/Chatness/MyChatApp/g' {} ';'

  • find ./ -type f \( -name "*.js" -o -name "*.json" -o -name "*.html" -o -name "*.ts" \) -exec sed -i "" 's/chatness/my-chat-app/g' {} ';'

To verify if everything went well you can open the package.json file and check for the name property.

Dependencies

Issue npm install to be installing all the project dependencies before continuing. Never try to rename the app after npm installation, first rename and then install. The order matters. Also make sure to not skip any step from now on if you plan to quickly get Chatness off the ground.
