Installation

There are two main ways to get Akashi running. Downloading the binaries, or building from source. For instructions on building from source, see the readme.

Windows instructions

Navigate to the releases page and download akashi-windows.zip. Extract this to the folder you want to run the server from, rename config_sample to config and run akashi.exe.

Linux instructions

First, ensure you have both Qt5 and Qt5-websockets. You can do this from your distribution's package manager.
For Ubuntu/Debian: apt-get install qt5-default libqt5websockets5

Next, navigate to the releases page and download akashi-linux.zip. Extract this to the folder you want to run the server from, rename config_sample to config and run the akashi executable.

Should you be unable to run the release versions head over to the Building Akashi page for instructions for the most common distributions and operating systems.
