Linux

• Install the following dependencies
  • Apache Cassandra
  • DataStax C++ Driver for Cassandra
  • Curl
  • Curl C API(libcurl)
  • Node.js
• Start Cassandra by systemctl start cassandra if not done already.
• Clone the repository with git clone https://github.com/sid-tiw/pertempt.git
• run ./build to build the project.
• run npm install to install the node dependencies.
• cd into the SERVER directory.
• start the server by typing in node main.js. If the port 1729 is not free for listening on your machine, change it accordingly.
• Access the main page through the browser. Because there is no file named index.html in the CLIENT folder, you need to enter the localhost:1729/home.html in the URL bar.

Windows

• Download the MSVC 142 compiler and all its dependencies.
• You can either install Visual Studio 2019 whole or just the VS command line tools.
  
• Install the same dependencies that are given in the Linux section.
  
• You need to build static libraries of libcurl using the MSVC compiler according to your architecture.
  
• Place libcurl in any location, preferably C:/CURL. Refer to line 27: main.cpp for details.
• Compile the CPP files using cl -IC:/CURL main.cpp operations.cpp person.cpp -o pertempt in the VS Command Line.
• Place the executable in the SERVER folder.
• Follow the steps given in the linux section for starting the server.

Instructions

• Change all the ports and addresses to default before making a pull request.
• Rather than making a single large file, divide it into multiple files.
• Try to design efficient algorithms if you want to implement something.
• Try to keep the code portable across different operating systems. Never make it Windows oriented. In any case the code should be compatible for Linux.
