STOR Installation

STOR uses CMake for builds

Get a copy of the repository:

git clone https://github.com/ethronsoft/stor

The files of interest to build the C++ version of STOR are in the stor/core folder

To build the library, make an out of source directory:

mkdir cpp_stor_build

Then setup the project Cmake cache and relative files that will be used during the build:

chdir cpp_stor_build
cmake [OPT] ../stor/core

Note

OPT refers to the various CMake options you can use, such as:

• -G “Unix Makefiles
• -G “MinGW Makefiles”

This is the place where to use option -DSTOR_CRYPTO=ON if you plan on using the encrypting facilities of the database.

Then build the static library:

cmake --build . --target stor

And run the tests:

cmake --build . --target stor_test
./stor_test

Note

If in doubt about what dependencies to link against your executable, check out target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME}_test ..) in CmakeLists.txt
