Title: Command line only... help! :(
Post by: senseiwa on November 11, 2005, 02:18:42 PM

Hi!!

I'm trying to compile and install amule 2.0.3 in a *very* custom way... what I want to do is this:

- install amule in my home directory
- use command line only (as I understand, there's a sort of curses GUI, is it true?)
- do not use amuled

I tried to do this:

./configure --prefix=$HOME --enable-amulecmdgui

It compiles, it installs and I find in my home directory:  /bin, /lib, /man and /share. In bin I find a nice amulecmdDLG, but executing it does NOTHING! :(

user:~/bin$ ls
amule*  amulecmdDLG*  ed2k*
user:~/bin$ ./amulecmdDLG
user:~/bin$

Anyone there using a command line only amule?!?

In "no gui" mode amule is split to core (which called amuled - daemon) and control programs (amulecmd amuleweb).
You should use --enable-amule-daemon to compile amuled, --enable-webserver to compile amuleweb (allow to control amule thru browser), --enable-amulecmd to enable command line control amulecmd.

I know :)

The question was simply ``without amuled'', so just having a textual client as replacement of the wx-gtk one...

I don't like to have a daemon, but if it's the *only* way, I'll have to rebuild amuled...

^^
the daemon is the textual one, its just that you use amulecmd to control it

and you dont have to use wx-gtk you can use wx-base and no need for gtk libs

uh... why wouldn't you want amuled if it's EXACTLY what you're looking for?

There seems to be a little misunderstanding on what which bianry does...

amule is the classical monolithical app.
amuled is the daemon without any direct control possibilities.

The EC apps can be used to control both amule and amuled:
amuleweb is the webserver.
amulecmd is the command line client.
amulegui is the remote GUI.
the *DLG versions of amulecmd & amuleweb just open a console in which they run amulecmd / amuleweb, meant for OSes that are not command line orientated like MS Windows...
