Moolticute | ||
========== | ||

|
||
This project aims to be an easy companion to your [Mooltipass](http://www.themooltipass.com) device and extend | ||
the power of the device to more platform/tools. | ||
With it you can manage your Mooltipass with a crossplatform app, as well as provide a daemon service that | ||
handle all USB communication with the device. | ||
|
||
This tool is written with a daemon that runs in background, and a user interface app to control you Mooltipass. | ||
Other clients could also connect and talk to the daemon (it uses a websocket connection and simple JSON messages). | ||
The official Mooltipass App only works with Chrome as it relies on USB HID library that is only implemented in Chrome. | ||
A Firefox (or any other browser) extension could easily be written by using the Moolticute daemon. | ||
|
||
It is completely cross platform, and runs on Linux (using libusb), OS X (native IOKit API), and Windows (native HID API). | ||
|

### Dependencies | ||
|
||
##### Windows, Linux, OSX | ||
- Requires Qt 5.4 or higher. | ||
|
||
##### Linux | ||
- Requires libusb | ||
|
||
### How to build | ||
|
||
For now, no binary releases are out yet. You will need to build the software by following the next step. | ||
|
||
Two method can be used to build, by using QtCreator IDE, or from command line (typically on Linux). After the build succeeded, two executable are created: | ||
- moolticuted (the daemon process) | ||
- MoolticuteApp (the main GUI app) | ||
|
||
##### Using Qt SDK | ||
|
||
- Download and install the Qt SDK from their [website](http://qt.io) | ||
- Start Qt-Creator | ||
- Open the main Moolticute.pro project file | ||
- Click on the "play" button to build and run | ||
|
||
##### Command line | ||
|
||
Qt needs to be installed correctly (see you Linux distribution for that) | ||
|
||
``` | ||
mkdir build | ||
cd build | ||
qmake | ||
make | ||
``` | ||
|
