PositronPiercer / Vsearch

C implementation of a Forward Secure Publicly Verifiable DSSE Scheme

Make sure these libraries are installed before proceeding

• PBC
• GMP
• OpenSSL
• mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev

For building the inverted index, all the test files must be in same directory

Running Instructions

• Download or clone the repo
• Modify the include/db_secrets.h according to you database configuration
• Run make to create the binaries
• Run ./init_db to setup the database
• Now you have to load the keyword table into your database. Login to your database and enter SOURCE data/keyw.sql; ( replace 'data/keyw.sql' with the address of the keyw.sql file.
• Run python3 create_inv_index.py to create the inverted index (Note that building inverted index is not a part of the algorithm and a hack has been used to build it, therefore it is required that you run ./vsearch 1before building the inverted index)
• Run ./vsearch with the required parameter to execute
