Images of the WebUI can be found at raspiblitz-web-progress

Built with React & Tailwind CSS.

If you want to bring the Raspiblitz WebUI to other languages, please help us translate it via Weblate :)

Big thanks to our translators, which you can find in this README.

• Node.js
• Yarn
• nvm is suppported but not required

yarn upgrade-interactive

If you notice several versions of a dep in the yarn.lock-file:

yarn dedupe

Further info: https://dev.to/arcanis/yarn-2-2-dedupe-faster-lighter-ha5#dedupe-command

yarn install
yarn start

For the backend, there currently exist three options:

• Use an existing RaspiBlitz
  • Easy to setup, but needs a RaspiBlitz
• Using the provided Mock backend
  • Easy to setup, but limited data
• Using blitz_api with Polar
  • Some changes needed for local development
  • Possibly more data (depending on your ln setup :) )

See backend-mock folder

Open another terminal

cd backend-mock
yarn install
yarn start

Then go to http://localhost:3000 and use the password password.

This guide uses Polar for easier development, but you can also use a real lightning node.

• Download Polar and run it.
  • Create at least one bitcoin and one lightning node.
• Clone the blitz_api and install the dependencies.
  • In addition, you will need redis installed for blitz_api to work.
• Create a .env file (see .env_sample in blitz_api) and copy the bitcoin and ln info into it.
  • Important: When definining shell_script_path you need to define a directory where a folder called config.scripts and a file called blitz.debug.sh reside in. Otherwise blitz_api may not work (used on the RaspiBlitz for logging)
• Make the following change in blitz_api:
  • In main/app/main.py, change the prefix_format from /v{major} to /api/v{major}.
• Change the BACKEND_SERVER value in vite.config.ts to your local blitz_api installation.

Now you can start the blitz_api and run yarn start in raspiblitz-web.

Please do not commit the above changes.

• (Optional): Make sure nvm is installed.
• (Optional): Run nvm install 18 or if already installed nvm use
• Install yarn on a fresh nvm: npm install --global yarn
• Install the dependencies with yarn install
• Change the BACKEND_SERVER value in vite.config.ts to your local RaspiBlitz - for example if your RaspiBlitz is running on local IP 192.168.1.123 then change the value to http://192.168.1.123:80
• with yarn start it should now connect to your external RaspiBlitz
