Following are the steps to install the toolchain on a Debian 11 system:

Main control application

Install the necessary packages for building and compiling Rust programs: sudo apt install build-essential curl -y

Install additional packages: sudo apt install libssl-dev pkg-config sudo apt install libudev-dev

Download and install Rust: curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Update current shell: source ~/.cargo/env

Verify Rust installation: rustc --version

As of December 2024, Rust version is 1.83.0.

Install git: apt-get install git

Clone the git repositories into /usr/local/src:

Verify if control application, client application and test server can be build using cargo build.

Create the message queues required for operation or testing by running create_mqueues.sh with root privileges.

Create the folder for the file-based output matching to the .toml file configuration: mkdir /var/local/aquarium-ctrl.

After installation of the databases, you can proceed with the tests using cargo test -- --test-threads=8.

As of December 2024, running testing with more than eight threads may result in flaky test cases (failing randomly).

Client application

Run cargo build in the installation directory of the client.

Test server

Run cargo build in the installation directory of the client. Run cargo test in the installation directory of the client.
