Cwtch Server

Building

Pretty straight forward:

• build the app in app/ with go build
• build the docker container in docker/ with docker build . -t openpriv/server

Windows

The server package relies on sqlite which in turn requires the use of CGO. As per this issue that means TDM-GCC is required to be installed and used to compile on Windows

Running

• cd app
• go build
• ./app

The app takes the following arguments

• -debug: enabled debug logging
• -exportServerBundle: Export the server bundle to a file called serverbundle

The app takes the following environment variables

• CWTCH_HOME: sets the config dir for the app

env CONFIG_HOME=./conf ./app

Using the Server

When run the app will output standard log lines, one of which will contain the tofubundle in purple. This is the part you need to capture and import into a Cwtch client app so you can use the server for hosting groups

Docker

Build by executing docker build -f docker/Dockerfile .

or run our prebuild ones with

pull openpriv/cwtch-server

and run it. It stores all Cwtch data in a Volume at /var/lib/cwtch
