The websocketpp package provides a websocket client/server library.
asio-1-34-2 and boost
First apply fixes to allow building with boost-1.87 and later:
patch -Np1 -i ../websocketpp-0.8.2-boost-1.87-compat.patch sed 's|"${WEBSOCKETPP_BOOST_LIBS}"|${WEBSOCKETPP_BOOST_LIBS}|' -i CMakeLists.txt
Install websocketpp by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \ -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -D CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON \ -D CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 \ -D ENABLE_CPP11=ON \ -D BUILD_TESTS=OFF \ -G Ninja ..
Now, as the root
user:
ninja install
-D
CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON
: This switch makes
cmake remove
hardcoded library search paths (rpath) when installing a binary
executable file or a shared library. This package does not need
rpath once it's installed into the standard location, and rpath may
sometimes cause unwanted effects or even security issues.
-D
CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5
: This allows building
with newer CMake versions.
-D ENABLE_CPP11=ON
: This
builds support for the c++11 ISO standard.
-D BUILD_TESTS=OFF
: This
disables building tests.
