# Jellyfin app for Roku
Disclaimer: This is not complete, but making good progress!
**This app is not complete!**
Right now the only things stored on your device are server name, server port,
Currently, the data stored on your Roku device are server name, server port,
user id, and some user preferences like movie sort order.
At any point, the format that is used to save those settings could change, and
your data could be effectively lost (and you'll have to re-enter it).
The format that is used to save those settings could change at any time and
your data could be lost and you'd have to re-enter it.
In fact, it is likely this early on, as a few design decisions were made before
I knew much about BrightScript format. Patience is appreciated.
## Getting Started
### Images
Follow the steps below or checkout the [Development Guide For New Devs](DEVGUIDE.md)
With ImageMagick installed
```
sh make_images.sh
### Developer Mode
Put your Roku device in [developer mode](https://blog.roku.com/developer/2016/02/04/developer-setup-guide)
### Clone the GitHub Repo
Copy all of the application files to a new folder and then change directories:
```bash
https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-roku.git
cd jellyfin-roku
```
This will update the poster and splash images from the jellyfin-ux repo.
### Login Details
## Testing and Local Deployment
To test and deploy on your Roku device, it must be in [developer mode](https://blog.roku.com/developer/2016/02/04/developer-setup-guide) first.
Once there, set two environment variables that make uses.
Run the commands below - Replacing the IP and password (using the info from the first step)
```bash
export ROKU_DEV_TARGET=192.168.1.234
export ROKU_DEV_PASSWORD=aaaa
```
This is the IP address of your roku and the password you set for the
rokudev account when you put your device in developer mode.
This will allow you to test your code without having to manually upload a .zip file every time
### Testing
Testing is done with the [Rooibos](https://github.com/georgejecook/rooibos/) library.
This works by including the tests in the deployment and then looking at telnet
for the test results. This testing library requires the [Rooibos Preprocessor](https://github.com/georgejecook/rooibosPreprocessor)
to create a few of the helper files used during the tests. This can be installed via:
### Download Images
Install these packages:
```bash
npm install -g rooibos-preprocessor
sudo apt-get install imagemagick wget make nodejs npm
```
`make test` will package up the application and tests and the deploy it to the Roku. Test results can be seen via `telnet ${ROKU_DEV_TARGET} 8085`
Then run this script to download the images from the jellyfin-ux repo:
### Deployment
To deploy the application to your local roku run `make install`.
```bash
sh make_images.sh
```
This packages up the application, sends it to your Roku and launches it.
### Deploy
### [Development Guide](DEVGUIDE.md)
Additional notes and instructions to help new developers get started: [Development Guide For New Devs](DEVGUIDE.md)
This packages up the application, sends it to your Roku, and launches the channel:
```bash
make install
```
### Testing
Testing is done with the [Rooibos](https://github.com/georgejecook/rooibos/) library.
This works by including the tests in the deployment and then looking at telnet
for the test results. To use the testing library you need to install [rooibos-cli](https://github.com/georgejecook/rooibos-cli):
Run this in the root app directory:
```bash
npm install -g rooibos-cli
```
To deploy the application with tests:
```bash
make test
```
To see test results and crash reports:
```bash
telnet ${ROKU_DEV_TARGET} 8085
```
To exit telnet: `CTRL + ]` and then type `quit + ENTER`
