Soulfind

Soulseek server implementation in D

Note that Soulfind exists for local testing, and should not be used in production.

Building

To build Soulfind, just type:

make

The Makefile uses LDC by default to build Soulfind. Set the DC environment variable to dmd to use DMD instead:

DC=dmd make

Valid targets are:

• all (default target)
• soulfind
• soulsetup

You'll also need to have the sqlite3 library installed.

Configuration

Soulfind stores all its configuration in a SQLite database. When starting, it will look for the file soulfind.db, and create it with the following tables if it doesn't exist:

• users
• admins
• config

Only the config table is filled with some default values:

• port: 2242
• max_users: 65535
• motd: Soulfind <version>

Server owners can configure the server and add admins with the soulsetup utility.

Admins can interact with the server by sending commands in a private chat with the server user (help to see all commands).

Missing Features

• Private rooms
• Distributed search network
