CI's guard fired on build-web.ps1: an em-dash in the header comment. The rule exists because PowerShell 5.1 mis-parses non-UTF-8-locale files, and the check covers every script the installer can run, comments included. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Windows host build/deploy scripts
Helper scripts for the Windows host box (the RTX .173 lab box, repo at
C:\Users\Public\punktfunk-native). Run them from the repo root in an elevated PowerShell.
One-time: persist the build environment
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\windows\setup-build-env.ps1
Persists (Machine scope) the vars the host build needs (NVENC itself needs none — its entry
points are runtime-loaded from the driver's nvEncodeAPI64.dll):
| var | value | why |
|---|---|---|
LIBCLANG_PATH |
C:\Program Files\LLVM\bin |
bindgen (libclang.dll) |
CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM |
3.5 |
audiopus_sys / cmake crates |
FFMPEG_DIR is not set — the --features nvenc build the RTX box uses does not link
libavcodec (that is only the amf-qsv feature). The VS C++ toolchain is loaded per-build via
vcvars64.bat (auto-discovered with vswhere).
Rebuild + redeploy the host service
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\windows\deploy-host.ps1
Stops PunktfunkHost, backs up the current binary (punktfunk-host.exe.bak), builds
--release -p punktfunk-host --features nvenc from the current source, then restarts the
service on the new binary — with automatic rollback if the build fails or the new binary
won't start. The service is down only for the build duration.
Web management console
On an installed host (the setup.exe) the console is set up automatically — no manual steps.
The installer bundles the built (self-contained, no-node_modules) .output server + a portable
bun; the PunktfunkHost service supervises the console as its own child (bun {app}\web\.output\server\index.mjs on :47992, session 0, restarted on any exit, stdout in
%ProgramData%\punktfunk\logs\web.log), starting it as soon as the host has written its mgmt token
- identity cert.
punktfunk-host.exe web setupprovisions the rest: it opens inbound TCP 47992 and writes the login password to%ProgramData%\punktfunk\web-password(ACL'd to Administrators + SYSTEM). The mgmt bearer token it proxies with is the host's own%ProgramData%\punktfunk\mgmt-token. Browsehttps://<host-ip>:47992and log in with the password the installer shows on its final page. To change it, editweb-passwordand restart the service (punktfunk-host service restart) — or just kill the console'sbun.exe; the supervisor respawns it with the new value.
Rebuild + restart the console (dev box)
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\windows\build-web.ps1
bun install && bun run build (Nitro noExternals -> a self-contained .output, no
node_modules/.npmrc), then swaps the fresh .output into {app}\web around a service
stop/start (the service's kill-on-close job is what unlocks the console's bun) and checks
:47992/login. Use this to iterate on the console against an installed host.
Plugin/script runner
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\windows\build-scripting.ps1
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\windows\build-scripting.ps1 -EnableTask
bun install && bun build src/runner-cli.ts --target=bun in sdk\ -> one self-contained
runner-cli.js (effect + the SDK inlined; the operator's plugin import() stays a runtime import,
gated on the same attempt= check CI and the .deb builder use), then lays it out as
<exe-dir>\scripting\runner-cli.js + scripting-run.cmd with the bun runtime at <exe-dir>\bun\bun.exe.
That layout is load-bearing. punktfunk-host plugins add/remove/list forwards package ops to the
runner, and on Windows it resolves the runner relative to the running exe (crates\punktfunk-host\src\plugins.rs).
Since deploy-host.ps1 runs the service out of target\release, a bundle sitting only in the
installed {app} leaves the freshly built exe reporting "the plugin runner isn't installed". The
script deploys next to every host exe it finds - the built one and whatever the PunktfunkHost
service actually runs.
The PunktfunkScripting task is registered disabled (opt-in) by the installer, so the script
stages the bundle but does not silently enable it. Pass -EnableTask on a box you are validating
plugins on (equivalent to punktfunk-host plugins enable).
Rebuild + redeploy everything
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\windows\deploy-all.ps1
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\windows\deploy-all.ps1 -EnableScriptingTask
Thin wrapper: runs deploy-host.ps1, build-web.ps1 then build-scripting.ps1 in sequence — the
web console and plugin runner are always included, so the host binary and the runner bundle
never drift apart. If the host build/start fails, deploy-host.ps1 rolls itself back and throws,
which stops this script before the later steps run.
Typical flow after pulling new code
git pull
