# nim-status-client
|
|
|
|
Experiments calling status-go from nim, inspired in [nim-stratus](https://github.com/status-im/nim-stratus) by [@arnetheduck](https://github.com/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
|
|
```
|
