Beaker Browser This project is now archived. Beaker was an experimental peer-to-peer Web browser. It adds new APIs for building hostless applications while remaining compatible with the rest of the Web. Visit the website. Table of Contents Installing Binaries Building from source Documentation Env Vars Vulnerability disclosure Known issues tmux Contributors Backers Sponsors License Installing Binaries Visit the Releases Page to find the installer you need. Building from source Requires node 12 or higher. In Linux (and in some cases macOS) you need libtool, m4, autoconf, and automake: sudo apt-get install libtool m4 make g++ autoconf # debian/ubuntu sudo dnf install libtool m4 make gcc-c++ libXScrnSaver # fedora brew install libtool autoconf automake # macos In Windows, you'll need to install Python 2.7, Visual Studio 2015 or 2017, and Git. (You might try windows-build-tools.) Then run: npm config set python c:/python27 npm config set msvs_version 2017 npm install -g node-gyp npm install -g gulp To build: git clone https://github.com/beakerbrowser/beaker.git cd beaker/scripts npm install # don't worry about v8 api errors building native modules - rebuild will fix npm run rebuild # needed after each install. see https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/5851 npm start If you pull latest from the repo and get weird module errors, do: npm run burnthemall This invokes the mad king, who will torch your node_modules/, and do the full install/rebuild process for you. (We chose that command name when GoT was still cool.) npm start should work afterward. If you're doing development, npm run watch to have assets build automatically. Documentation Env Vars DEBUG: which log systems to output? A comma-separated string. Can be beaker, dat, bittorrent-dht, dns-discovery, hypercore-protocol. Specify * for all. BEAKER_OPEN_URL: open the given URL on load, rather than the previous session or default tab. BEAKER_USER_DATA_PATH: override the user-data path, therefore changing where data is read/written. Useful for testing. For default value see userData in the electron docs. BEAKER_DAT_QUOTA_DEFAULT_BYTES_ALLOWED: override the default max-quota for bytes allowed to be written by a dat site. Useful for testing. Default value is '500mb'. This can be a Number or a String. Check bytes.parse for supported units and abbreviations. Vulnerability disclosure See SECURITY.md for reporting security issues and vulnerabilities. Known issues tmux Launching from tmux is known to cause issues with GUI apps in macOS. On Beaker, it may cause the application to hang during startup. Contributors This project exists thanks to all the people who contribute. [Contribute].
