installation

Getting and installing Aspen

Right now, the only way to install aspen is from source from Github. Eventually our goal is to provide a downloadable archive of the source along with patches to upgrade from individual versions.

dependencies

Aspen only depends on a few different libraries. You may either download them from the package repository of your favorite distribution, or compile them from source if needed.

• openssl
• zlib
• Boost

In order to download these on debian: apt-get install libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libboost-all-dev

compiling and running

Checkout the repository:
git clone https://github.com/sorressean/aspen.git
change to the aspen directory: cd aspen download all submodules: git submodule update make a build directory: mkdir build set up CMake: cmake ../ Compile Aspen:
make -j$(($(nproc) +1))
Run Aspen:
cd ..;./startup
