Note
This page assumes you are the root user. If you are not, start the package install commands with doas, along with make install.

1. Toolchain

Since the project uses CMake, you'll need to install it! If you don't have it, you can do the following:

pkg_add cmake

2. Install Voice Dependencies (Optional)

If you wish to use voice support, you'll need to do the following:

pkg_add libsodium opus pkgconf

3. Build Source Code

cmake -B ./build
cmake --build ./build -j8

Replace the number after -j with a number suitable for your setup, usually the same as the number of cores on your machine. cmake will fetch any dependencies that are required for you and ensure they are compiled alongside the library.

4. Install Globally

cd build; make install

5. Installation to a Different Directory

If you want to install the library, its dependencies and header files to a different directory, specify this directory when running cmake:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/install

Then once the build is complete, run make install to install to the location you specified.

6. Using the Library

Once installed to the /usr/local directory, you can make use of the library in CMake, without linking to a folder! You can't use this with clang++, nor g++, as OpenBSD seems to be broken on this end, so your only option from here is to use CMake. This isn't a bad thing, as we recommend people to use CMake anyways!

Have fun!
