Compiling

Dependencies

• Binn Library
• Rest Client C++
• CURL Library
• Json C++ Library
• Boost Libraries (>= 1.67.0): Boost System, Boost Filesystem, Boost Iostreams, Boost Thread, Boost Process
• PLog >= 1.1.5

Tests

• Google Tests

Compiling on Linux

See build scripts for your distribution.

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/gameap/daemon
cd daemon
cmake .
make gameap-daemon

Compiling on Windows

Install or compile Dependencies. I recommend using Vcpkg:

vcpkg install binn restclient-cpp curl jsoncpp boost-system boost-filesystem boost-iostreams boost-thread boost-process boost-property-tree

Add -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE to cmake arguments:

-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=C:/path/to/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake

Open GDaemon folder in your Visual Studio, run cmake and run build.

Creating certificates

Generate root certificate:

openssl genrsa -out rootca.key 2048
openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key rootca.key -days 3650 -out rootca.crt

Generate server certificate:

openssl genrsa -out server.key 2048
openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr

openssl x509 -req -in server.csr -CA rootca.crt -CAkey rootca.key -CAcreateserial -out server.crt -days 3650

Generate client certificate:

openssl genrsa -out client.key 2048
openssl req -new -key client.key -out client.csr

openssl x509 -req -in client.csr -CA rootca.crt -CAkey rootca.key -CAcreateserial -out client.crt -days 3650

Generate Diffie-Hellman Certificate:

openssl dhparam -out dh2048.pem 2048

Configuration:

ca_certificate_file=rootca.crt
certificate_chain_file=server.crt
private_key_file=server.key
dh_file=/home/path/to/dh2048.pem

client.csr and client.key is using by client side
