## ▶️ Getting started with development
### 🚰 Install dependencies
Clone this repository and install the dependencies:
```bash
poetry install --all-extras --with dev,docs
```
The main entry points are:
```bash
tidal_ng_dl/cli.py
tidal_ng_dl/gui.py
```
### 📺 GUI Builder
The GUI is build with `PySide6` using the [Qt Designer](https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtdesigner-manual.html):
```bash
PYSIDE_DESIGNER_PLUGINS=tidal_dl_ng/ui pyside6-designer
```
After all changes are saved you need to translate the Qt Designer `*.ui` file into Python code, for instance:
```
pyside6-uic tidal_dl_ng/ui/main.ui -o tidal_dl_ng/ui/main.py
```
This needs to be done for each created / modified `*.ui` file accordingly.
### 🏗 Build the project
To build the project use this command:
```bash
make install
# OR
make gui-macos
```
See the `Makefile` for all available build commands.
The CI/CD pipeline will be triggered when you open a pull request, merge to main, or when you create a new release.
