BuildSource

The following instructions explain how you run cuwo from source on Linux and Unix-likes.

Method 1 (bootstrap.sh)

This method is necessary if your distro does not have packages for Python 3.6, which is the case for Ubuntu 16.04 and below, Debian and CentOS. It also makes installation a lot more convenient, since it wraps the whole install in one .sh file.

1. First, install the prerequisites for Python 3.6, curl, and git.

• Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt-get install -y curl git build-essential libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev libbz2-dev libreadline-dev

2. Create a new directory (e.g. ~/cuwo) and cd into it.
3. Run curl -L https://git.io/vFLZX | bash

Method 2 (manual)

1. Install Python 3.6 with pip and build tools.

• Debian/Ubuntu:
  • sudo apt-get install -y python3.6 python3.6-dev python3-pip build-essential

2. Install Cython

• Debian/Ubuntu:
  • sudo pip3 install cython

3. Checkout the cuwo repository from GitHub or get the source here.
4. Unzip the package (to e.g. ~/cuwo) and cd into it.
5. Build cuwo

• python3.6 setup.py build_ext --inplace

Running

1. Edit config/base.py to your liking. You should perhaps edit 'server_name' and the 'PASSWORDREPLACEME' key, which is the default password for administration purposes.
2. Start your cuwo server with sh run_server.sh and have fun.

If you have any (reproducible) issues post them here on GitHub or come to our Discord channel.
