Compilation

This library targets the latest stable Rust. At time of writing, that is 1.43.0

You must first install Postgres bindings. On a Debian-based operating system, this would look like:

$ sudo apt install libpq-dev

Then, build using:

$ cargo build --release

Before running the binary, create a random cookie key at least 32 bytes long:

$ head -c 32 /dev/urandom > thaumiel-cookie.key

thaumiel-cookie.key is not a set path and can be modified in the configuration.

This will create the final thaumiel binary, which can be executed using the following:

$ cargo run -- [arguments]

However, thaumiel requires several services to be running, which in turn have requirements such as a Postgres database to write to. Also be sure the port numbers configured here and in the respective services match.
