Building on Windows #1

Closed distay0xGit closed 5 years ago

It seems like there isn't a way to do it.

superwhiskers commented 5 years ago

@JG-GIT, there is almost certainly a way to do it, it's just that it will not run since redis is borderline impossible to get running on windows. our servers run linux, and me, the head developer of this program runs linux so we haven't spent much time attempting to do so

if you would like to run this on windows you need to get one of the newer versions of redis to compile on windows first, then run it. then download the cassandra database server and run it. once you have that working you then need to download go, and then download mingw, which is a suite of *nix utilities for windows. once you have that you need to run the bash shell, then go into where you downloaded this and then run ./build.sh dev to build a development binary. you may then edit the configs and point them to the redis and cassandra servers you set up previously, and then edit any other options in the config you would like to modify. you are then the first person to run juxtaposition on windows without running redis externally

@superwhiskers redis for windows binaries do exist however...

superwhiskers commented 5 years ago

@ThatNerdyPikachu yes, but they're not new enough to work
