Setup guide

This guide support VScode only, it's may work with GNOME builder but I'm not sure.

1. Install dependencies and build tool.

# Install gtk4, vala, meson and postgresql (provide libpq) 

yay -S gtk4 \
vala \
meson \
postgresql \
flatpak-builder
flatpak

2. Setup test database

Follow the postgres setup guide in this gist

I often use the dvdrental sample db when develop and test tarug.

3. Build Tarug

make build run

If you got error something like: org.gnome.Sdk/*unspecified*/47 not installed. Install required runtime and sdk. sh flatpak install flathub org.gnome.Platform//47 org.gnome.Sdk//47 org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.vala//24.08

Try edit resources/gtk/connection-view.blp:200 label from "Connect with Tarug" to "Hello world". Build the project again to see the change
