OVOS Bus Server

Alternative C++ messagebus server implementation for ovos-core using the WebSocket++ WebSocket library.

Dependencies

The following libraries are bundled in the source tree, under the server/external directory:

• WebSocket++
• Asio
• JsonCpp

When compiling under MinGW, Boost.Thread is also required, due to a bug in MinGW that prevents WebSocket++ from using C++11 functionality alone ( see this StackOverflow post for details.)

Building the server

Building the server requires a recent version of the CMake build system. To build the server, invoke the following commands in the server directory:

cmake .
cmake --build .

When compiling with Visual Studio under Windows, these command need to be run from the "Visual Studio Native Tools Command Prompt", which includes the neccessary build tools in the PATH.

• Asio - Boost Software License (see server/external/LICENSE/asio.txt)
• JsonCpp - Public Domain / MIT License (see server/external/LICENSE/jsoncpp.txt)
