Build Executable BSCAN in Your Environment

To Linux

1. Run cmake CMakeLists.txt from the source directory

   cd bscan
   cmake CMakeLists.txt

2. Now run make all or make bscan to compile the main program

Check the gcc version of your System. BSCAN requires version greater than 17. We can view a list of Makefile generators with the command: cmake -G. Here shows an example to use the MinGW Makefile generator:

1. Run cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" <file-cmake> from the source directory

   cd bscan
   cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" CMakeLists.txt

2. Now run make all or make bscan to compile the main program

Build Module BSCAN Node.js in Your Environment

1. Install required npm packages

   npm install

1. Generate boilerplate in the root directory of bscan module

   node-gyp configure
   

1. Now to build bscan native we will need to run the command to generates a DLL file with .node extension. This file will be placed inside build/Release directory

   node-gyp build

Getting Started

Create a javascript file to call the module

// main.js
const bscan = require("./build/Release/bscan.node");
