openless/openless-all

OpenLess All-Platform

This is the current cross-platform OpenLess workspace.

App Directory

The runnable sources live in app/ with three explicit layers:

• app/crates/openless-core: framework-independent shared backend Interface and business rules;
• app/src-tauri: macOS, Windows, and Android Tauri Adapter plus the React frontend;
• app/linux-egui: Linux non-UI Adapter consumed by the separately developed egui frontend; it does not depend on Tauri or WebKitGTK.

The macOS Tauri build links a vendored C ASR engine (Open-Less/qwen-asr, forked from antirez/qwen-asr) tracked as a git submodule under app/src-tauri/vendor/qwen-asr/. The root core/Linux workspace excludes src-tauri, so Linux checks do not need that submodule.

# macOS Tauri development only — pull in vendored submodules
git submodule update --init --recursive

cd app
npm ci
npm run tauri dev

Shared backend and Linux host

The egui UI is owned by another team. This repository supplies its typed Rust Interface, semantic events, fixtures, and Linux non-UI Adapters. The checked-in linux-egui/src/main.rs remains a stub until that team lands eframe::App; do not treat the current binary as a production application.

cd app
cargo test -p openless-core
cargo test -p openless-linux-egui --all-targets
pwsh ./scripts/check-core-deps.ps1
pwsh ./scripts/check-core-deps.ps1 openless-linux-egui

The independent Linux package workflow is .github/workflows/release-linux-egui.yml. It builds deb/rpm/AppImage and the fcitx5 plugin without WebKitGTK, but deliberately has no automatic tag trigger until the real egui entry point is present.

macOS Build

Use the project build script instead of calling tauri build directly:

cd app
INSTALL=0 ./scripts/build-mac.sh

Generated macOS artifacts:

• app/src-tauri/target/release/bundle/macos/OpenLess.app
• app/src-tauri/target/release/bundle/dmg/OpenLess_<version>_aarch64.dmg

For local install during development:

cd app
./scripts/build-mac.sh

Windows Build

The runnable Tauri app is still app/. Windows contributors should run a preflight before building so missing MSVC, Windows SDK, or MinGW tools fail with actionable messages.

cd app
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\scripts\windows-preflight.ps1

MSVC Route

Use this route when Visual Studio Build Tools and the Windows SDK are installed. Open a Developer PowerShell, or call vcvars64.bat, then run:

cd app
npm ci
npm run tauri -- build

Required Visual Studio Installer components:

• Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.VCTools
• MSVC v143 x64/x86 build tools
• Windows 10/11 SDK that provides kernel32.lib

If link.exe or kernel32.lib is missing, rerun:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\scripts\windows-preflight.ps1 -Toolchain msvc

GNU / MinGW Route

Use this route when MSVC/Windows SDK is unavailable. The app now lives under the no-space openless-all directory to avoid GNU/MinGW path quoting issues while generating import libraries. Use the helper script to keep the GNU build environment and target setup consistent.

cd app
scoop install rustup mingw
rustup toolchain install stable-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
rustup target add x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\scripts\windows-preflight.ps1 -Toolchain gnu
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\scripts\windows-build-gnu.ps1

Generated GNU artifacts:

• %TEMP%\openless-windows-gnu\src-tauri\target\x86_64-pc-windows-gnu\release\openless.exe
• %TEMP%\openless-windows-gnu\src-tauri\target\x86_64-pc-windows-gnu\release\bundle\msi\OpenLess_*_x64_en-US.msi
• %TEMP%\openless-windows-gnu\src-tauri\target\x86_64-pc-windows-gnu\release\bundle\nsis\OpenLess_*_x64-setup.exe

Hotkey Injection Gate

Use this gate before/after Windows hotkey changes when a physical keyboard regression is unavailable. It injects a dev/test-only hotkey click through the coordinator handle_pressed / handle_released path, asserts the log contains [coord] hotkey pressed, and cancels the dry-run session automatically.

cd app
npm run check:hotkey-injection

Windows Runtime Notes

• Windows does not need the macOS Accessibility permission. Use Settings -> Permissions -> Global hotkey to inspect listener status.
• Microphone permission is checked by opening a short-lived input stream, so a device-format query alone is not treated as permission granted.
• Text insertion through Ctrl+V is treated as copy fallback unless the app can confirm insertion.

Release Signing

Tagged Tauri releases (v*-tauri) must be Developer ID signed and notarized so users can download and open the macOS app without manually removing quarantine attributes. Linux packages use the separate manual egui workflow and an independent minisign secret.

Required GitHub secrets:

• APPLE_CERTIFICATE
• APPLE_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD
• APPLE_ID
• APPLE_PASSWORD
• APPLE_TEAM_ID

Optional:

• APPLE_PROVIDER_SHORT_NAME
• KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD

Manual workflow runs can still produce ad-hoc signed test builds, but tagged macOS releases fail if signing/notarization secrets are missing.

Ignored Local Output

The following are intentionally local-only:

• app/node_modules/
• app/dist/
• app/target/
• app/src-tauri/target/
• app/src-tauri/gen/
• .DS_Store
