# MoonWell Launcher
MoonWell Launcher is the desktop launcher for MoonWell, a private World of
Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King server focused on a player-friendly experience
without excessive grind and with stronger social play.
The launcher is responsible for:
- logging in to a player's MoonWell account
- downloading and synchronizing client files
- displaying launcher news
- launching the game client
## Stack
- Flutter desktop
- Dart
- `flutter_bloc` for launcher UI state
- `get_it` and `injectable` for dependency injection
- `dio` for Web API and file download requests
- `shared_preferences` for launcher preferences
## Prerequisites
Use the latest stable Flutter SDK available from the official Flutter release
channel. This project does not support FVM-pinned SDK workflows.
```powershell
flutter pub get
```
If `flutter` is unavailable, restart the shell after installing Flutter or
fix PATH so `flutter --version` works.
## Configuration
Set the launcher Web API base URL at compile time:
```powershell
--dart-define=MOONWELL_API_BASE_URL=https://host
```
Example run command:
```powershell
flutter run -d windows --dart-define=MOONWELL_API_BASE_URL=https://host
```
## Development
Regenerate dependency injection after changing injectable services:
```powershell
dart run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs
```
Run static analysis:
```powershell
flutter analyze
```
See `docs/linting.md` for the full format, analyze, test, and Lefthook
pre-commit workflow.
Build the Windows launcher:
```powershell
flutter build windows --dart-define=MOONWELL_API_BASE_URL=https://host
```
The Inno Setup installer script lives at `installer/moonwell_launcher.iss`.
## Architecture
The UI lives in `lib/app`, with shared UI widgets under `lib/app/widgets`.
Launcher domain models, sync use cases, API clients, installation services, and
preferences live under `lib/features`.
The launcher sync flow is manifest-based:
1. authenticate against the MoonWell Web API
2. fetch the client manifest
3. scan the selected installation directory
4. compare local files to the manifest
5. remove stale files outside ignored directories
6. download missing or changed files to temporary part files
7. verify size and SHA-256 before replacing client files
8. launch `Wow.exe` from the selected client directory
See `docs/launcher_web_api_spec.md` for the API and sync contract.
