Building

You will need node, npm, gulp, mono-complete, mono-xsp4, and a mongoDB database.

To build:

• npm install
• bower install
• Get C# package dependencies by opening the project solution in monodevelop and selecting Project > Restore NuGet Packages, or by running mono nuget.exe restore k2e/packages.config -PackagesDirectory packages (needs nuget.exe, instructions)
• You will need to set your evernote OAuth consumer key and secret, and a url for a mongoDB database. You can place an EvernoteCredentials.config file inside the k2e folder (it will be copied over to the dist folder when executing the dist task) to set configuration options. A minimal example for development follows, all options are presented in the next section.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<appSettings>
  <add key="PublicKey" value="<OAuth consumer key>"/>
  <add key="SecretKey" value="<OAuth consumer secret>"/>
  <add key="MongoConnectionString" value="mongodb://127.0.0.1/k2e"/>
</appSettings>
