C Application Example

This example C application shows how to use the aranya-client-capi C API. Using the run.bash script, it starts the daemons and clients and then runs through a scenario involving five team members.

First, a user will create the team and add the four other team members. Then, the team will setup syncing with each other to ensure consistent state. Then, the users work together to create an Aranya Fast Channel to send data messages between two of the team members.

example.c is the example C application.

cmake is used to build the program and link to the aranya-client-capi shared library.

The aranya-daemon process is assumed to have been started before running the example application.

A config.json file is provided for configuring the aranya-daemon when it starts up.

Dependencies

• cmake
• rust
• patchelf

Running The Example

A run.bash bash script is provided to help with running the example. Note that the script automatically starts the aranya-daemon executable before running the example C application.

Running the script: cargo make run-capi-example

This command will also build local doxygen documentation for the aranya-client-capi. Open the docs/index.html file in a browser to view the docs.
