## SETUP
|
|
|
|
This guide will help you execute Construct for the first time. If you are
|
|
building from source code and have not already done so please follow the
|
|
instructions in [BUILD](BUILD.md) before continuing here.
|
|
|
|
#### NOTES
|
|
|
|
- We will refer to your server as `host.tld`. For those familiar with matrix:
|
|
this is your _origin_ and mxid `@user:host.tld` hostpart. If you delegate
|
|
your server's location to something like `matrix.host.tld:1234` we refer to
|
|
this as your _servername_.
|
|
|
|
> Construct clusters all share the same _origin_ but each individual instance
|
|
of the daemon has a unique _servername_.
|
|
|
|
- If you built construct yourself as a standalone build you will need to add
|
|
the included library directories before executing:
|
|
`export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/src/deps/boost/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH`
|
|
`export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/src/deps/rocksdb:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH`
|
|
|
|
### PROCEDURE
|
|
|
|
1. Execute
|
|
|
|
There are two arguments: `<origin> [servername]`. If the _servername_
|
|
argument is missing, the _origin_ will be used for it instead.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
bin/construct host.tld
|
|
````
|
|
> There is no configuration file.
|
|
|
|
> Log messages will appear in terminal concluding with notice `IRCd RUN`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Strike ctrl-c on keyboard
|
|
> The command-line console will appear.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Create a general listener socket by entering the following command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
net listen matrix * 8448 privkey.pem cert.pem chain.pem
|
|
```
|
|
- `matrix` is your name for this listener; you can use any name.
|
|
- `*` and `8448` is the local address and port to bind.
|
|
- `privkey.pem` and `cert.pem` and `chain.pem` are paths (ideally
|
|
absolute paths) to PEM-format files for the listener's TLS.
|
|
|
|
> The Matrix Federation Tester should now pass. Browse to
|
|
https://matrix.org/federationtester/api/report?server_name=host.tld and
|
|
verify `"AllChecksOK": true`
|
|
|
|
4. To use a web-based client like Riot, configure the "web root" directory
|
|
to point at Riot's `webapp/` directory by entering the following:
|
|
```
|
|
conf set ircd.web.root.path /path/to/riot-web/webapp/
|
|
mod reload web_root
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
6. Browse to `https://host.tld:8448/` and register a user.
