This is the official repository for Follow My Vote's Stake-Weighted Voting application.

Linux and Mac are both fully supported. Windows support is pending.

In this repo are 4 components:

• The shared folder contains code shared between the other components
• The StubChainAdaptor folder contains a shared library implementing a dummy blockchain, used by the application
• The StubBackend folder contains a dummy server daemon which the application will connect to. This daemon should be running before launching the application
• The VotingApp folder contains the voting application itself

See Architecture for more information on how the components interact.

• Cap'n Proto 0.5.3+
• Qt 5.5+ including QBS
• QML Material

Once the dependencies are installed, building the application is as simple as running qbs in the top-level directory. If this doesn't work, probably qbs is not configured yet or Cap'n Proto is not in PATH. If you use the QtCreator IDE, you can skip configuring qbs manually as QtCreator does this automatically. QtCreator also allows you to customize PATH (and other environment variables) in the Projects pane.

To configure qbs, make sure your compiler is in PATH and run qbs-setup-toolchains --detect. This should configure your toolchain(s) automatically. Next, point it at Qt. If Qt 5.5 is in PATH, you may simply qbs-setup-qt --detect; otherwise, use qbs-setup-qt /path/to/qt5.5/bin/qmake qt5. It may also be necessary to run qbs-config profiles.qt5.baseProfile gcc to direct qbs to use gcc when using the qt5 profile, and/or run qbs-config defaultProfile qt5 to direct qbs to use the qt5 profile by default.

Binaries will be placed in a build folder created by qbs, probably named qt5-debug/install-root or similar, in the top level directory.

qbs only runs one binary at a time, so run the backend separately:

./qt5-debug/install-root/bin/StubBackend

You may then use qbs to run the app itself:

qbs run -p VotingApp

It's recommended to run the VotingApp through qbs, as qbs will automatically configure the environment so that the app can find the chain adaptor library.
