Requirements

To contribute to Aquila’s development, you need the following expertise and tools:

  • Advanced Rust Knowledge: Proficient in Rust programming, including complex abstractions and performance optimizations.
  • Experience with gRPC: Familiarity with building and consuming gRPC services.
  • Redis & RabbitMQ: Understanding of setting up and using Redis and RabbitMQ for messaging and caching.

Setting Up a Local Development Environment

Choose between a manual setup or using a pre-configured development container.

Manual Setup

  1. Install Rust and Cargo
    Install the latest versions of Rust and its package manager, Cargo. Use Rustup for an easy installation.
  2. Set Up Local Redis and RabbitMQ Services
    • Install Redis and RabbitMQ on your local machine.
    • Ensure both services are running and accessible.

Using a Development Container

  1. Set up a development container with all required dependencies pre-installed (details to be provided).
  2. Ensure your container runtime (e.g., Docker) is installed and running.
  3. Open the project in a compatible IDE like Visual Studio Code, and select the dev-container configuration to start development.

Additional Notes

  • Ensure all dependencies are compatible with the version of Aquila you are working on.
  • Use the provided .env file as a reference for setting up your environment variables.
