IMPORTANT NOTE: If you encounter an issue compiling the "lindera-ipadic" dependency on the npm run build:firefox
step, it is likely that you do not have enough memory or CPU. This is especially an issue on virtual machines, and is hard to detect since the error messages are incredibly vague.
On an Ubuntu VM, 4gb RAM 2 cores has been proven to work.
- Open a git enabled shell of your choice (e.g. Command Prompt, Git Bash)
- Get the source code
git clone https://github.com/Bill13579/tabby.git
- Go into the Tabby directory
cd tabby
- Install dependencies with npm
npm install
- Build Tabby
Firefox:npm run build:firefox
Chrome:npm run build:chrome
WebExtension:npm run build:webext
The dist
folder, after the build, can then be packaged as a zip file and installed.
This will install Tabby as a temporary add-on, so you will need to re-do this everytime you restart Firefox.
