Windows App Setup
This is an optional step where you can setup the Giga Meter Windows application at your end and share it with customers who want to implement Giga Meter Windows app within their existing infrastructure stack. You can find the instructions for deployment in our README file, which is the section you see when you scroll down in our GitHub repository, or if you've got a copy of Giga Meter Backend downloaded already, you can open the file contained in the downloaded repository called README.md.
Requirements
The Giga Meter Windows app supports development and distribution on the Windows, running Windows 7 or higher (ideally a device that is permanently and exclusively connected to the school internet) platforms.
Getting Started
We have added a README file which can be used to setup and deploy the app in your infrastructure. You can have a look at the file here.
Setting up content
You can setup the content like application name, description, etc in the app once you have cloned the repo.
1. To set application name, set appName property in the src/environments/environment.ts file
appName: 'Project Connect'Copy
2. To set application name suffix, set appNameSuffix property in the src/environments/environment.ts file.
This is optional, you can keep it empty as well. If it is set, then this will be used as a suffix for application name. It will be displayed with blue color in application header and home page.
appNameSuffix: 'Daily Check'Copy
3. To set application description, update "title2" property for "home" object inside all language jsons like en.json, es.json, fr.json, etc.
4. To show application about menu option, set appNameSuffix property in the src/environments/environment.ts file.
If you set it false, menu option won't be visible. If is it set true, menu option will be visible then you can update its content in the app.component.html file where menuId="fourth" is set.
