Cwtch processes the following environment variables:
|
||||
- `CWTCH_HOME=` overrides the default storage path of `~/.cwtch` with what ever you choose
|
||||
- `LOG_FILE=` will reroute all of libcwtch-go's logging to the specified file instead of the console
|
||||
- `LOG_FILE=` will reroute all of libcwtch-go's logging to the specified file instead of the console
|
||||
- `LOG_LEVEL=debug` will set the log level to debug instead of info

## Building
|
||||
|
||||
### Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
First you will need a valid [flutter sdk installation](https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/install)
|
||||
and run `flutter pub get` to fetch dependencies.

You will probably want to disable Analytics on the Flutter Tool: `flutter config --no-analytics`
|
||||
|
||||
This project uses the flutter `dev` channel, which you will need to switch to: `flutter channel dev; flutter upgrade`.
|
||||
|
||||
Once flutter is set up, run `flutter pub get` from this project folder to fetch dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
By default a development version is built, which loads profiles from `$CWTCH_HOME/dev/`.
|
||||
To build a release version and load normal profiles, add something like the
|
||||
following to the `flutter build` commands below:
|
||||
```
|
||||
--dart-define BUILD_VER="`git describe --tags --abbrev=1`" --dart-define BUILD_DATE="`date +%G-%m-%d-%H-%M`"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Building on Linux (for Linux)
|
||||
|
||||
- run `fetch-libcwtch-go.sh`libCwtch-go to fetch a prebuild version of `libCwtch-go.so` go to `./linux`. Include `./linux` in `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`
|
||||
- run `fetch-tor.sh` and/or ensure that `tor` is in `$PATH`
|
||||
- run `flutter run -d linux`
|
||||
- copy `libCwtch-go.so` to `linux/`, or run `fetch-libcwtch-go.sh` to download it
|
||||
- set `LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$PWD/linux"`
|
||||
- copy a `tor` binary to `linux/` or run `fetch-tor.sh` to download one
|
||||
- run `flutter config --enable-linux-desktop` if you've never done so before
|
||||
- optional: launch cwtch-ui directly by running `flutter run -d linux`
|
||||
- to build cwtch-ui, run `flutter build linux`
|
||||
- to package the build, run `linux/package-release.sh`
|
||||
|
||||
### Building on Windows (for Windows)
|
||||
|
||||
- run `fetch-libcwtch-go.ps1` to fetch a prebuild version of `libCwtch.dll`
|
||||
- copy `libCwtch.dll` to `windows/`, or run `fetch-libcwtch-go.ps1` to download it
|
||||
- run `fetch-tor-win.ps1` to fetch Tor for windows
|
||||
- run `flutter run -d windows`
|
||||
- optional: launch cwtch-ui directly by running `flutter run -d windows`
|
||||
- to build cwtch-ui, run `flutter build windows`
