+## How to install on other platform
+
+You need to download `xds-agent` tarballs from xds dashboard by clicking
+on download icon  of
+configuration page.
+
+> **NOTE** : you can also download released tarballs from github [releases page](https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-agent/releases).
+
+Then unzip this tarball any where into your local disk.
## Configuration
-xds-agent configuration is driven by a JSON config file (`agent-config.json`).
+xds-agent configuration is driven by a JSON config file (named `agent-config.json`).
+The tarball mentioned in previous section includes this file with default settings.
Here is the logic to determine which `agent-config.json` file will be used:
1. from command line option: `--config myConfig.json`
3. `<current dir>/agent-config.json` file
4. `<xds-agent executable dir>/agent-config.json` file
-Supported fields in configuration file are:
-```json
+Supported fields in configuration file are (all fields are optional and listed
+values are the default values):
+```
{
- "httpPort": "http port of agent REST interface",
+ "httpPort": "8010", # http port of agent REST interface
+ "logsDir": "/tmp/logs", # directory to store logs (eg. syncthing output)
"syncthing": {
- "binDir": "syncthing binaries directory (use xds-agent executable dir when not set)",
- "home": "syncthing home directory (usually .../syncthing-config)",
- "gui-address": "syncthing gui url (default http://localhost:8384)"
+ "binDir": ".", # syncthing binaries directory (default: executable directory)
+ "home": "${HOME}/.xds/syncthing-config", # syncthing home directory (usually .../syncthing-config)
+ "gui-address": "http://localhost:8384", # syncthing gui url (default http://localhost:8384)
+ "gui-apikey": "123456789", # syncthing api-key to use (default auto-generated)
}
}
```
## Start-up
+Simply to start `xds-agent` executable
```bash
-./bin/xds-agent.sh
+./xds-agent &
+```
+
+>**NOTE** if need be, you can increase log level by setting option
+`--log <level>`, supported *level* are: panic, fatal, error, warn, info, debug.
+
+You can now use XDS dashboard and check that connection with `xds-agent` is up.

+## Build xds-agent from scratch
+
+### Dependencies
+
+- Install and setup [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) version 1.8 or
+higher to compile this tool.
+
+### Building
+
+Clone this repo into your `$GOPATH/src/github.com/iotbzh` and use delivered Makefile:
+```bash
+ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/iotbzh
+ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/iotbzh
+ git clone https://github.com/iotbzh/xds-agent.git
+ cd xds-agent
+ make all
+```
+
+And to install xds-agent (by default in `/usr/local/bin`):
+```bash
+make install
```
->**NOTE** you can define some environment variables to setup for example
-config file `XDS_CONFIGFILE` or change logs level `LOG_LEVEL`.
+>**NOTE:** Used `DESTDIR` to specify another install directory
+>```bash
+>make install DESTDIR=$HOME/opt/xds-agent
+>```
+
+#### Cross build
+For example on a Linux machine to cross-build for Windows, just execute:
+```bash
+export GOOS=windows
+export GOARCH=amd64
+make all
+make package
+```
