## Installation

_INAV Configurator_ is distributed as a  _standalone_ application.

### Windows

1. Visit [release page](https://github.com/iNavFlights/inav-configurator/releases)
2. Download Configurator for Windows platform (ia32 or win64 is present)
3. Install
    * Extract ZIP archive and run the INAV Configurator app from the unpacked folder
    * OR just use the setup program `INAV-Configurator_win32_arch_x.y.z.exe`, **arch** is your computer architecture (ia32 (32bit) or x64 (64bit)), **x.y.z** is the INAV Configurator version number.

4.  Configurator is not signed, so you have to allow Windows to run untrusted applications. There might be a monit for it during the first run

### Linux

1. Visit [release page](https://github.com/iNavFlights/inav-configurator/releases)
2. Download Configurator for Linux platform (only linux64 is present)
   *  **.rpm** is the Fedora installation file. Just download and install using `sudo dnf localinstall /path/to/INAV-Configurator_linux_x64-x.y.z.rpm` or open it with a package manager (e.g. via Files)
   *  **.deb** is the Debian/Ubuntu installation file. Just download and install using `sudo apt install /path/to/INAV-Configurator_linux_x64_x.y.z.deb` or open it with a package manager (e.g. via the File Manager)
   *  **.zip** is a universal archive. Download and continue with these instructions to install
3. Change to the directory containing the downloaded **zip** file
4. download [this](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iNavFlights/inav-configurator/master/assets/linux/inav-configurator.desktop) file to the same directory. Its filename should be `inav-configurator.desktop`.
5. Extract **zip** archive
```
unzip INAV-Configurator_linux_arch_x.y.z.zip -d /tmp/
```
  **arch** is your computer architecture (x64, armv7l, ...), **x.y.z** is the INAV Configurator version number.

6. If this is the first time installing INAV Configurator, create a home for its files
```
sudo mkdir /opt/inav
sudo chown $USER /opt/inav
```
7. Move the temporary files into their home 
```
mv /tmp/INAV\ Configurator /opt/inav/inav-configurator
```
8. Update the application icon.
```
sudo mkdir /opt/inav/inav-configurator/icon
sudo cp /opt/inav/inav-configurator/resources/app/images/inav_icon_128.png /opt/inav/inav-configurator/icon
```
9. As a one-off, move the desktop file into the applications directory 
```
sudo mv inav-configurator.desktop /usr/share/applications/
```
10. Make the following files executable:
   * inav-configurator `chmod +x /opt/inav/inav-configurator/inav-configurator`
11. Run the INAV Configurator app from the unpacked folder `/opt/inav/inav-configurator/inav-configurator`

### Mac

1. Visit [release page](https://github.com/iNavFlights/inav-configurator/releases)
2. Download Configurator for the Mac platform
3. Install
    * Extract ZIP archive and run INAV Configurator
    * OR use the DMG package for installation

## Building and running INAV Configurator locally (for development)

For local development, the **node.js** build system is used.

1. Install node.js
1. From the project folder run `yarn install`
1. To build the and start the configurator:
    - Run `yarn start`.

To build the App run `yarn run make` to build for your platform.

Options:
* Architecture: --arch  - Allowed values are: "ia32", "x64", "armv7l", "arm64", "universal", or "mips64el".

See [Electron Forge CLI Documentation](https://www.electronforge.io/cli#options-2) for details

Note: Not all architectures are available for all platforms. For example, ia32 (32bit) support is not available for Linux. 
Tested architectures:
- Windows: x64 and ia32
- Linux: x64 and armv7l
- MacOS: x64 and arm64

To build the setup program for windows, you have to install [WiX Toolset V3](https://github.com/wixtoolset/wix3/releases) and add the `bin` folder to you `PATH`, e.g.
```C:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.14\bin```

To build deb and rpm packages for Linux, you have to install the following packages: 
- Ubuntu/Debian: `dpkg, fakeroot, rpm, build-essential, libudev-dev`
- OpenSuse/Fedora: `dpkg, fakeroot, rpmbuild, systemd-devel, devel-basis (zypper install -t pattern devel_basis), zip`

Example (note the double -- ):
```npm run make -- --arch="x64"```

### Running with debug | Inspector

To be able to open Inspector, set environment variable `NODE_ENV` to `development` or set the flag directly when run `npm start`:

```NODE_ENV=development npm start``` or ```$env:NODE_ENV="development" | npm start``` for Windows PowerShell
Chrome Devtools will be available on http://localhost:9222. This can also be used with an MCP plugin

Or use VScode and start a debug session `Debug Configurator` (Just hit F5!)

To debug the main thread (source files in `js/main`), just set a breakpoint in VScode.

To capture a debug log from a packaged version (such as from a user), they can run it as:
```.\inav-configurator.exe --enable-logging --log-file=inav-log.txt```
or to log to the console:
```.\inav-configurator.exe --enable-logging --log-file=inav-log.txt```

## Different map providers

INAV Configurator allows you to choose between OpenStreetMap, Esri World Imagery (Aerial View), and MapProxy map providers.

### How to choose a Map provider

1. Click **Settings** icon in the top-right corner of INAV Configurator
1. Choose a provider: OpenStreetMap, Esri, or MapProxy
1. For MapProxy, you need to provide a server URL and layer name to be used

### How to set up a MapProxy server for offline caching and mission planning
1. Follow the process described in [MAPPROXY.md](MAPPROXY.md)
1. Test your MapProxy server in a web browser, eg: http://192.168.145.20/inavmapproxy/
1. Once you have a working MapProxy server choose MapProxy as your map provider
	1. Enter MapProxy service URL, eg: http://192.168.145.20/inavmapproxy/service?
	1. Enter MapProxy service layer (inav_layer if configured from MAPPROXY.md)
1. Once completed, you can zoom in on the area you will be flying in while connected to the internet in either the GPS or Mission Control tab to save the cache for offline use

## Font Customisation

INAV provides the font images so that custom fonts can be created for your personal preference. This is the case for both analogue and digital fonts. The resources can be found in the [osd](/resources/osd) folder. Within the **analogue** and **digital** subfolders, you will find information on compiling your own fonts. There is also an [INAV Character Map](/resources/osd/INAV%20Character%20Map.md) document. This contains previews of all the character images in the fonts and the appropriate variable names within the firmware and Configurator. There are tools for compiling the [analogue](https://github.com/fiam/max7456tool) and [digital](https://github.com/MrD-RC/hdosd-font-tool) fonts. New font submissions via pull requests are welcome.

## Notes

### WebGL

Make sure Settings -> System -> "User hardware acceleration when available" is checked to achieve the best performance
