gradlew dist -Pinstaller on Windows.

It will generate a native windows setup file in app/javafx/gamedex-javafx-app/build/GameDex_{version}.exe

On windows: dist\GameDex.exe

gradlew runDemo

The demo application is intended for development purposes, but you can use it to play around with GameDex without affecting any real world data. It generates a game database filled with randomly generated games and all providers are replaced with fake servers that emulate them.

You can also run the demo application from the IDE - app/javafx/gamedex-javafx-app/src/test/kotlin/com/gitlab/ykrasik/gamedex/javaf/TestApplication.kt

gradlew test

For tests to pass, you need to have the following entries in a gradle.properties file:

systemProp.gameDex.giantBomb.apiKey={yourApiKey}
systemProp.gameDex.igdb.clientId={yourClientId}
systemProp.gameDex.igdb.clientSecret={yourClientSecret}

This is because contract tests for providers require real credentials to work.
