My Home Server

(Name will have to change, 'cause Matrix uses the term "homeserver" to mean something pretty specific and definitely not this. But it'll do for now.)

This project uses a SQLite database and runs a webserver for tracking a games collection. It's for my retro games collection.

Prerequisites

1. (Windows) Install SQLite3

• Download and extract somewhere: https://sqlite.org/download.html
• Add an environment variable SQLITE3_LIB_DIR pointing to wherever you installed the lib files.

2. Run cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features sqlite

• This installs the Diesel (database library/tool) command-line interface used for installing and configuring the database file.

Notes

Not sure if it's needed, but the DB should be ./db/homedb.sqlite. If you don't have it, you'll probably need to run something like:

• diesel setup --database-url="./db/homedb.sqlite" (unverified)
• diesel migration run

The migrations should already exist. But if you're going to add one... well, here, you can just read up on how Diesel works: https://github.com/diesel-rs/diesel/tree/master/diesel_cli
