Nariman Jelveh ef9f240a45 Remove terminal phoenix emulator (#2141)
* Remove terminal and phoenix built-in apps and emulator

This commit removes the terminal and phoenix built-in apps from the backend, database migrations, and permissions. It also deletes the entire emulator and phoenix/terminal app source directories, assets, and related configuration files. References to these apps in the backend module loader and router are removed, and related SQL migrations are updated to reflect their removal.

* Remove emulator references from SelfHostedModule

* Remove emulator integration and related references

* Remove parsers and pty modules

* Update package-lock.json

Tools Directory

This directory contains tools for developing and running puter. Each directory inside /tools is an npm workspace, so it can have its own package.json file and dependencies.

Scripts

run-selfhosted.js

This is the main script for running a local instance of Puter. It verifies the version of node.js you are running and attempts to explain any errors that come up if initiating boot fails.

Puter is booted with essential modules, and modules required for local file storage.

gen-release-notes.js

Generates release notes between a hard-coded pair of versions. These versions need to be modified manually in the script source before running.

check-translations.js

Checks for missing translations in src/gui/src/i18n/translations

Utilities

comment-writer

Generates comments in source files using generative AI via Puter's AI drivers.

To use this:

  • cd into the tools/comment-writer directory
  • Edit config.json and replace auth_token with your own
  • Run with a specified direcotry; for example: node main.js ../../src/backend/services

module-docgen

Document a module.

Libraries

comment-parser

This is a package used by the license-headers tool to process existing comments.

file-walker

This is used by license-headers and comment-writer to walk through source files.
