Steps to build this tool

[akshaysuryawanshi]

This is pretty exciting tool, I wanted to start testing it, any estimates on when the steps to build it will be available as part of the README.

Good point. :)
I'll look into adding instructions into README. In short: you need to install Bazel (see https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/install.html) and run "bazel build ..." in the directory with mysql-ripple sources. You can find some pretty good quickstart guide of how to work with Bazel at https://abseil.io/docs/cpp/quickstart, there's also Bazel tutorial at https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/tutorial/cpp.html.

I made PR, instructions are here -

Thanks 👍 I can confirm the instructions work as expected. And started exploring the tool, it seems like rippled doesnt use a password field for connection. Any idea if there is a plan to add support for that in it?

[pivanof]

There is a tentative plan to support passwords, but I can't say when we can get to it. Inside Google we use ALTS for authentication (see https://security.googleblog.com/2017/12/securing-communications-between-google.html), so adding password support wasn't that high on the priority list. Contributions are welcome.

I extended the README in my branch: dveeden@9f6aa4f

@dveeden I've merged #2 by @codedumper1, so I will close this issue. But please feel free to propose any additional adjustments to the README file if you think it's necessary.
