It has a single HTML file, `index.html`, responsible only for loading the required JavaScript and CSS.
It interacts with the backend through [XMLHttpRequest (XHR)](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/XMLHttpRequest).
It incorporates much of the [Mastodon API](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/) used by Pleroma and Mastodon, but requires many [Pleroma-specific features](https://docs.pleroma.social/backend/development/API/differences_in_mastoapi_responses/) in order to function.

# Contributing to Soapbox
When contributing to Soapbox, please first discuss the change you wish to make via issue,
email, or any other method with the owners of this repository before making a change.
Thank you for your interest in Soapbox!
## Project Contribution Flow
When contributing to Soapbox, please first discuss the change you wish to make by [opening an issue](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/soapbox-fe/-/issues).
It is recommended that you use the following guidelines to contribute to the Soapbox project:
## Opening an MR (merge request)
* Understand recommended [GitLab Flow](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InKNIvky2KE) methods on branch management
* Use the following branch management process:
* Pull a fork
* Mirror the fork against the original repository, setting the mirror to only mirror to protected branches
* Set the master branch in your fork to Protected
* Never modify the master branch in your fork, so that your fork mirroring does not break
* Pull branches in your fork to solve specific issues
* Do merge requests only to the original repository master branch, so that your fork mirroring does not break
* If you don't use the above policy, when your mirrored fork breaks mirroring, you can force your fork to back to successful mirroring using the following process:
* Unprotect the master branch of your fork from force push
* Use the following git commands from the cmd line of your local copy of your fork's master branch
```
git remote add upstream /url/to/original/repo
git fetch upstream
git checkout master
git reset --hard upstream/master
git push origin master --force
```
* Re-protect the master branch of your fork from force push
1. Smash that "fork" button on GitLab to make a copy of the repo.
2. Clone the repo locally, then begin work on a new branch (eg not `develop`).
3. Push your branch to your fork.
4. Once pushed, GitLab should provide you with a URL to open a new merge request right in your terminal. If not, do it [manually](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/soapbox-fe/-/merge_requests/new).
## Pull Request Process
### Ensuring the CI pipeline succeeds
1. Ensure any install or build dependencies are removed before the end of the layer when doing a
build.
2. Update the README.md with details of changes to the interface, this includes new environment
variables, exposed ports, useful file locations and container parameters.
3. Increase the version numbers in any examples files and the README.md to the new version that this
Pull Request would represent. The versioning scheme we use is [SemVer](http://semver.org/).
4. You may merge the Pull Request in once you have the sign-off of two other developers, or if you
do not have permission to do that, you may request the second reviewer to merge it for you.
When you push to a branch, the CI pipeline will run.
## Text Editor Tools
[Soapbox uses GitLab CI](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/soapbox-fe/-/blob/develop/.gitlab-ci.yml) to lint, run tests, and verify changes.
It's important this pipeline passes, otherwise we cannot merge the change.
If you're using a text editor like [Atom](https://atom.io/) or [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/), you can install tools to help you get linter feedback while you write code for the Soapbox project.
New users of gitlab.com may see a "detatched pipeline" error.
If so, please check the following:
For Atom, you can install the following packages:
1. Your GitLab email address is confirmed.
2. You may have to have a credit card on file before the CI job will run.
* [linter](https://atom.io/packages/linter)
* [linter-ui-default](https://atom.io/packages/linter-ui-default)
* [linter-eslint](https://atom.io/packages/linter-eslint)
* [linter-stylelint](https://atom.io/packages/linter-stylelint)
## Text editor
For Visual Studio Code, you can install the following extensions:
We recommend developing Soapbox with [VSCodium](https://vscodium.com/) (or its proprietary ancestor, [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/)).
* [ESLint](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=dbaeumer.vscode-eslint)
* [vscode-stylelint](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=stylelint.vscode-stylelint)
This will help give you feedback about your changes _in the editor itself_ before GitLab CI performs linting, etc.
When this project is opened in Code it will automatically recommend extensions.
See [`.vscode/extensions.json`](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/soapbox-fe/-/blob/develop/.vscode/extensions.json) for the full list.

# Customizing Soapbox
If you haven't already, [install Soapbox](../installing). But before you install soapbox, you should consider how Soapbox is installed, by default.
Soapbox uses your own site's name and branding throughout the interface.
This allows every Soapbox site to be different, and catered to a particular audience.
Unlike Mastodon, which uses the "Mastodon" branding on all instances, Soapbox does not refer to itself in the user interface.
Soapbox, by default, is installed to replace the default Pleroma front end. By extension, the Pleroma Masto front end continues to be available at the `/web` sub-URL, which you can reference, if you'd like, in the `promoPanel` section of `soapbox.json`
## Backend settings
There are two main places Soapbox gets its configuration:
The site's name and description are **configured in the backend itself.**
These are settings global to your website, and will also affect mobile apps and other frontends accessing your website.
- `/opt/pleroma/config/prod.secret.exs`
- On Mastodon, you can change it through the admin interface.
- On Pleroma, it can be edited through AdminFE, or by editing `config/prod.secret.exs` on the server.
- `/opt/pleroma/instance/static/instance/soapbox.json`
These settings are exposed through the API under GET `/api/v1/instance`.
Logos, branding, etc. take place in the `soapbox.json` file.
For example:
## Soapbox settings
```json
{
"logo": "/instance/images/soapbox-logo.svg",
"brandColor": "#0482d8",
"promoPanel": {
"items": [{
"icon": "area-chart",
"text": "Our Site stats",
"url": "https://fediverse.network/example.com"
}, {
"icon": "comment-o",
"text": "Our Site blog",
"url": "https://blog.example.com"
}]
},
"extensions": {
"patron": false
},
"defaultSettings": {
"autoPlayGif": false,
"themeMode": "light"
},
"copyright": "♡2020. Copying is an act of love. Please copy and share.",
"customCss": [
"/instance/static/your_file_here.css"
],
"navlinks": {
"homeFooter": [
{ "title": "About", "url": "/about" },
{ "title": "Terms of Service", "url": "/about/tos" },
{ "title": "Privacy Policy", "url": "/about/privacy" },
{ "title": "DMCA", "url": "/about/dmca" },
{ "title": "Source Code", "url": "/about#opensource" }
]
}
}
```
Most settings are specific to your Soapbox installation and not the entire website.
That includes the logo, default theme, and more.
Customizable features include:
- On Pleroma, admins can edit these settings directly from Soapbox. Just click "Soapbox config" in the sidebar, or navigate directly to `/soapbox/config`.
- On Mastodon, admins need to upload a JSON file with the settings, and make it available at `https://yoursite.tld/instance/soapbox.json`.
* Instance name
* Site logo
* Promo panel list items, e.g. blog site link
* Favicon
* About pages
* Default user settings
* Cascadomg Style Sheets (CSS)
## Instance Name
Instance name is edited during the Pleroma installation step or via AdminFE.
## Instance Description
Instance description is edited during the Pleroma installation step or via AdminFE.
## Captcha on Registration Page
Use of the Captcha feature on the registration page is configured during the Pleroma installation step or via AdminFE.
## Site Logo, Brand Color, and Promo Panel List Items
The site logo, brand color, and promo panel list items are customized by copying `soapbox.example.json` in the `static/instance` folder to `soapbox.json` and editing that file. It is recommended that you test your edited soapbox.json file in a JSON validator, such as [JSONLint](https://jsonlint.com/), before using it.
The icon names for the promo panel list items can be source from [Line Awesome](https://icons8.com/line-awesome). Note that you should hover over or click a selected icon to see what the icon's real name is, e.g. `world`
The site logo, in SVG format, is rendered to be able to allow the site theme colors to appear in the less than 100% opaque sections of the logo.
The logo colors are rendered in a color that provides contrast for the site theme.
The `navlinks` section of the `soapbox.json` file references the links that are displayed at the bottom of the Registration/Login, About, Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and Copyright Policy (DMCA) pages.
The `brandColor` in `soapbox.json` refers to the main color upon which the look of soapbox-fe is defined.
After editing your HTML files and folder names, save the file and refresh your browser.
## Favicon
The favicon is customized by dropping a favicon.png file into the `/static` folder and refreshing your browser.
## About Pages
Soapbox supports any number of custom HTML pages under `yoursite.com/about/:slug`.
The finder will search `/opt/pleroma/instance/static/instance/about/:slug.html` to find your page.
Use the name `index.html` for the root page.
Example templates are available for editing in the `static/instance/about.example` folder, such as:
* index.html
* tos.html
* privacy.html
* dmca.html
Simply rename `about.example` to `about`, or create your own.
The `soapbox.json` file navlinks section's default URL values are pointing to the above file location, when the `about.example` folder is renamed to `about`
These four template files have placeholders in them, e.g. "Your_Instance", that should be edited to match your Soapbox instance configuration, and will be meaningless to your users until you edit them.
## Alternate Soapbox URL Root Location
If you want to install Soapbox at an alternate URL, allowing you to potentially run more than 2 front ends on a Pleroma server, you can consider deploying the Nginx config created by @a1batross, available [here](https://git.mentality.rip/a1batross/soapbox-nginx-config/src/branch/master/soapbox.nginx)
Tech support is limited for this level of customization
If using Pleroma, these settings are exposed through the API under GET `/api/pleroma/frontend_configurations`.
Otherwise, the settings need to be uploaded manually and made available at GET `/instance/soapbox.json`.

# Developing a backend
Soapbox expects backends to implement the [Mastodon API](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/).
At the very least:
- [instance](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/instance/)
- [apps](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/apps/)
- [oauth](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/apps/oauth/)
- [accounts](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/accounts/)
- [statuses](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/statuses/)
Soapbox uses feature-detection on the instance to determine which features to show.
By default, a minimal featureset is used.
## Feature detection
First thing, Soapbox fetches GET `/api/v1/instance` to identify the backend.
The instance should respond with a `version` string:
```js
{
"title": "Soapbox",
"short_description": "hello world!",
// ...
"version": "2.7.2 (compatible; Pleroma 2.4.52+soapbox)"
}
```
The version string should match this format:
```
COMPAT_VERSION (compatible; BACKEND_NAME VERSION)
```
The Regex used to parse it:
```js
/^([\w+.]*)(?: \(compatible; ([\w]*) (.*)\))?$/
```
- `COMPAT_VERSION` - The highest Mastodon API version this backend is compatible with. If you're not sure, use a lower version like `2.7.2`. It MUST follow [semver](https://semver.org/).
- `BACKEND_NAME` - Human-readable name of the backend. No spaces!
- `VERSION` - The actual version of the backend. It MUST follow [semver](https://semver.org/).
Typically checks are done against `BACKEND_NAME` and `VERSION`.
The version string is similar in purpose to a [User-Agent](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/User-Agent) string.
The format was first invented by Pleroma, but is now widely used, including by Pixelfed, Mitra, and Soapbox BE.
See [`features.ts`](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/soapbox-fe/-/blob/develop/app/soapbox/utils/features.ts) for the complete list of features.
## Forks of other software
If your software is a fork of another software, the version string should indicate that.
Otherwise, Soapbox will use the minimal featureset.
### Forks of Mastodon
Mastodon forks do not need the compat section, and can simply append `+[NAME]` to the version string (eg Glitch Social):
```
3.2.0+glitch
```
### Forks of Pleroma
For Pleroma forks, the fork name should be in the compat section (eg Soapbox BE):
```
2.7.2 (compatible; Pleroma 2.4.52+soapbox)
```
## Adding support for a new backend
If the backend conforms to the above format, please modify [`features.ts`](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/soapbox-fe/-/blob/develop/app/soapbox/utils/features.ts) and submit a merge request to enable features for your backend!

# Redux Store Map
A big part of what makes soapbox-fe function is the [Redux](https://redux.js.org/) store.
Redux is basically a database of everything your frontend needs to know about in the form of a giant JSON object.
To work with Redux, you will want to install the [Redux browser extension](https://extension.remotedev.io/).
This will allow you to see the full Redux store when working in development.
Due to the large size of the Redux store in soapbox-fe, it's worth documenting the purpose of each path.
If it's not documented, it's because I inherited it from Mastodon and I don't know what it does yet.

- `settings` - Any frontend configuration values that should be persisted to the backend database. This includes user preferences as well as metadata such as emoji usage counters. It uses [`pleroma_settings_store`](https://docs-develop.pleroma.social/backend/API/differences_in_mastoapi_responses/#accounts) to do it if it's available. If there's some other endpoint that handles your value, it doesn't belong here.
