The app can be installed through the app store within Nextcloud. You can also download the latest release from the release page.
Deck is not yet ready for intensive usage. A lot of database queries are generated when the number of boards, cards and attachments is high. For example, a user having access to 13 boards, with each board having on average 100 cards, and each card having on average 5 attachments, would generate 6500 database queries when doing the file related queries which would increase the page loading time significantly.
Improvements on Nextcloud server and Deck itself will improve the situation.
There are multiple ways to develop on Deck. As you will need a Nextcloud server running, the individual options are described below.
General build instructions for the app itself are the same for all options.
To build you will need to have Node.js and Composer installed.
- Install PHP dependencies:
composer install --no-dev - Install JS dependencies:
npm ci - Build JavaScript for the frontend
- Development build
npm run dev - Watch for changes
npm run watch - Production build
npm run build
- Development build
You can enable HMR (Hot module replacement) to avoid page reloads when working on the frontend:
- ☑️ Install and enable
hmr_enablerapp - 🏁 Run
npm run serve - 🌍 Open the normal Nextcloud server URL (not the URL given by above command)
- Open code spaces or the repository in VS Code to start the dev container
- The container will automatically install all dependencies and build the app
- Nextcloud will be installed from the master development branch and be available on a port exposed by the container
- Fork the app
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/nextcloud/deck.git - Go into deck directory:
cd deck - Build the app as described in the general build instructions
- Run Nextcloud development container and mount the apps source code into it
docker run --rm \
-p 8080:80 \
-v $PWD:/var/www/html/apps-extra/deck \
ghcr.io/juliushaertl/nextcloud-dev-php81:latest
You need to setup a development environment of the current Nextcloud version. You can also alternatively install & run the nextcloud docker container.
After the finished installation, you can clone the deck project directly in the /[nextcloud-docker-dev-dir]/workspace/server/apps/ folder.
You can use the provided Makefile to run all tests by using:
make test
Within tests/integration/ run composer install and then choose one of the two options:
- Run tests with a local php server:
bash run.sh - Run against an existing Nextcloud installation:
BEHAT_SERVER_URL=http://nextcloud.local ./vendor/bin/behat --colors features/decks.feature
