For easy contribution here you find the recommended setup:

1. Update or install Homebrew On MacOS you should use home-brew for installing the required tools. Before you install new things, please check your installation and update home-brew:

   brew doctor
   brew update

   If you have no home-brew you can easily install it:

   xcode-select --install
   /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
   echo >> ~/.zprofile
   echo 'eval "$(/usr/local/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> ~/.zprofile
   eval "$(/usr/local/bin/brew shellenv)"

2. Install 'vscode' from code.visualstudio.com

   brew install --cask visual-studio-code

3. Install 'docker-desktop' from www.docker.com

   brew install --cask docker

   In this project we build multiarch container and use attestations. Please check if you have to enable cantainerd usage on your system for supporting this:

   

4. Install readline, xz and gettext

   brew install readline xz gettext

5. Install pyenv so we can easily switch the Python version

   A description how to install pyenv you will find here: pyenv project

   Then install pyenv and set some environments for your shell

   brew install pyenv
   
   echo 'export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"' >> ~/.zprofile
   echo [[ -d $PYENV_ROOT/bin ]] && export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zprofile
   echo 'eval "$(pyenv init -)"' >> ~/.zprofile

6. Download repositories

   mkdir tsun
   cd tsun
   git clone https://github.com/s-allius/tsun-gen3-proxy.git
   git clone https://github.com/s-allius/tsun-gen3-proxy.wiki.git
   git clone https://github.com/s-allius/ha-addons.git

7. Setup a virtual environment with pyenv and venv

   Start vscode and enter the workspace of the proxy:

   cd tsun-gen3-proxy
   code tsun.code-workspace

   Then open a new terminal (zsh) for the working-directory tsun-gen3-proxy and create the python environment with the required python packages:

   make install

8. Install vscode packages: Python, Pylance, Python Debugger, Docker, Flake8, yUML, Markdown All In One, markdownlint, Coverage Gutters, GitHub Pull Requests, Better Jinja, Git Graph

9. Optional: install hadolint for Dockerfile checking

   brew install hadolint

   and install the vscodepackage: hadolint

10. Create .env file and build your first docker container or Home Assistant Add-on

    Save the .env-example file as .env to create a new file. Now set the variable in the file with your values. Build a docker container:

    make dev

    or build a Home Assistant Add-on:

    make addon-dev
