Setup and installation

For Windows users:

Please set WSL if not done already done with the following details:

• use version 2
• use a Debian-based distro

Open the Linux CLI and follow the guide.

For Linux users:

Check if your Linux distribution is based on Debian if not then please lookup into setup/Makefile in the repository and find suitable packages for installation.

Further guide is focused on users having Debian.

Guide:

Follow the below steps:

• Step 1: Clone

  cd to your working directory and clone the repository. we will refer to the working directory as <work-dir>.

  cd \<work-dir>;
  sudo apt-get install git -y;
  sudo apt-get update;
  git clone https://github.com/rishiagl/anya-cxx.git 

• Step 2: Install PostgresSQL

  Install PostgreSQL using the setup Makefile.

  cd anya-cxx/setup;
  sudo apt-get install make -y;
  sudo apt-get update;
  make postgres;

  now check the version of Postgres installed

  psql -V

• Step 3: Setup PostgresSQL

  • Change the password of the Postgres user created during installation. (do not confuse this user with a database user, this user is an OS user).

    sudo passwd postgres;

  • start the database server

    sudo service postgresql start;

  • run psql

    sudo -u postgres psql;

  • Now change the password of postgres user(Default database user created during installation)

    ALTER USER user_name WITH PASSWORD 'new_password';

  • Quit psql

    \q

  • Change config.json

    In anya-cxx(root) directory you'll find a file named config.json, in line no 18 add the <new_password> which you added 2 steps back.

  Now your PostgreSQL is up and running with very very minimal configuration, for production use please read the further blog on Securing your PostgreSQL server.

• Step 4: Install Web Framework and Build System
  (Make Sure you are in the setup directory)

  make install;

• Step 5: Build and Run (Assuming you are in the setup directory)

  • Go to build directory

    cd ../build;

  • Run cmake

    sudo cmake ..

  • Run make

    sudo make

  • Run

    ./anya
