# Rust modules for syslog-ng

## Requirements

* `cmake` (at least 2.8)
* `rustc` (at least 1.5)
* `cargo`
* `syslog-ng` (at least 3.8)
* a C compiler

## Building

1. Clone this repository
1. Create build directory
```
mkdir build
```
1. Step into the build directory
```
cd build
```
1. Generate build system (the individual modules may need additional flags for CMake):
```
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/btibi/install/syslog-ng ..
```

 You can also use CMake's graphical configurator (`cmake-gui`). `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` should point to the directory, where syslog-ng was installed.
 The default build type is `Debug`, you can build a highly optimized version with the `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release` flag.
1. Build the project:
```
make
```
1. Install the project:
```
make install
```
