nim-status-client

Experiments calling status-go from nim, inspired in nim-stratus by @arnetheduck

1. Install nim 1.2.0

# linux
apt-get install nim

# macos
brew install nim

2. Install QT, and add it to the PATH

# Linux
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/Qt/5.14.2/gcc_64/bin

# macos
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/Qt/5.14.2/clang_64/bin

3. Clone and build DOtherside

For Linux:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libgl1-mesa-dev
sudo apt-get install doxygen

git clone https://github.com/filcuc/DOtherSide
cd DOtherSide
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make

4. Setup Library Path

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/dotherside/build/lib

5. Copy libstatus to repo

Copy libstatus.a to the root folder. Can be obtained from status-react/result by executing make status-go-desktop. macos: rename libstatus.a to libstatus.dylib before copying over. Alternatively, modify desktop/default.nix to output libstatus.dylib before copying over.

6. Install nim dependencies

Ignore errors about nim_status_client failing to build.

nimble install

7. Build `nim-status-client`

# linux
make build

# macos
make build-osx

8. Run the app

./nim_status_client
