Preinstall

To build Server and Extenders, you need to install additional dependencies. Please note that golang 1.24.4 is required to compile and run AdaptixServer (and special patched golang for win7 gopher agent).

Linux Debain

sudo apt install mingw-w64 make

wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.24.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz -O /tmp/go1.24.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go /usr/local/bin/go
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf /tmp/go1.24.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo ln -s /usr/local/go/bin/go /usr/local/bin/go

# for windows 7 support by gopher agent
git clone https://github.com/Adaptix-Framework/go-win7 /tmp/go-win7
sudo mv /tmp/go-win7 /usr/lib/

Linux Arch

sudo pacman -S --needed mingw-w64 make

wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.24.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz -O /tmp/go1.24.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go /usr/local/bin/go
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf /tmp/go1.24.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo ln -s /usr/local/go/bin/go /usr/local/bin/go

# for windows 7 support by gopher agent
git clone https://github.com/Adaptix-Framework/go-win7 /tmp/go-win7
sudo mv /tmp/go-win7 /usr/lib/

To build Client, you need to install additional dependencies

Linux Debain

sudo apt install gcc g++ build-essential make cmake libssl-dev qt6-base-dev qt6-websockets-dev qt6-declarative-dev

Linux Arch

sudo pacman -S --needed make cmake openssl qt6-base qt6-websockets qt6-declarative

MacOS

# https://brew.sh/
brew install make cmake openssl qt@6

Windows

Need https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qt-online-installation.html

Server

AdaptixServer and Extenders (goplugins) must be built with the same version of the golang package.

make server
make extenders

All compiled files will be located in the dist directory.

Client

Linux / MacOS

The AdaptixClient is compiled from the cmake configuration.

make client

AdaptixClient file will be located in the dist directory.

Windows

Download QT online installer from the official website: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qt-online-installation.html.

After launching the installer, on the package download page, check the boxes as shown in the screenshot below.

In QT Creator, select Open Project and select the CMakeLists.txt file. After downloading the project, change the build type to Release and build the project.

Create a directory for the client where all dependencies will be copied. Move the AdapticClient.exe executable to this directory, open cmd.exe and run windeployqt.exe.

The directory with the application and dependencies can be transferred to any computer.
