Building

Building from source#

Prerequisites#

Simpledash utilizes an SQLite database for session storage. That means that sqlite3 must be installed along with its development files to build simpledash. It also means cross-compilation is not as simple as setting some environment variables.

On Debian, the required packages are: sqlite3 and sqlite3-dev.

On Arch, the required package is sqlite.

Building#

To build simpledash, first, clone the git repository of simpledash. Then, use a terminal to enter the cloned directory and run:

go build

Building with Advmake#

Simpledash can be built with another of my projects, advmake. Using this also builds the CSS framework used in this project, Bulma.

To build simpledash using advmake, simply run:

advmake

To run via advmake, run:

advmake run
