Build

To get the maximum performance, you'll need to build Cyber from source.

Dependencies

Get the Zig compiler (0.12.0) here:

Once you have zig installed, checkout the repo:

git clone https://github.com/fubark/cyber.git

Run Tests

# Runs all tests.
zig build test

# Runs just the tracing tests.
zig build test-trace

# Test WASM target.
zig build build-test -Doptimize=ReleaseFast -Dtarget=wasm32-wasi
wasm3 zig-out/test/test.wasm
wasm3 zig-out/test/trace_test.wasm

Build the CLI.

Cyber is optimized for the ReleaseFast build.

# For your native target.
zig build cli -Doptimize=ReleaseFast

# For cross platform build. eg. Host: Linux x64, Target: MacOS arm64
zig build cli -Doptimize=ReleaseFast -Dtarget=aarch64-macos-none

# For a debug build instead.
zig build cli

If all goes well, the Cyber CLI executable will be located in ./zig-out/cyber.

Build as a Library.

When using Cyber as a API library, you'll need to build a library instead.

# For your native target.
zig build lib -Doptimize=ReleaseFast

# For cross platform build. eg. Host: Linux x64, Target: MacOS arm64
zig build lib -Doptimize=ReleaseFast -Dtarget=aarch64-macos-none

# For Web/WASM.
zig build lib -Doptimize=ReleaseFast -Dtarget=wasm32-freestanding

You'll find the resulting shared library in ./zig-out/lib.

Troubleshooting.

  • If you have trouble building mimalloc on MacOS, consider changing the sdk path in lib/mimalloc/lib.zig to your installed version.

  • On a linux distro with selinux (eg. Fedora), add -Dselinux to the zig build commands.
