Installation

Requirements​

  • Delphi XE or later (Win32, Win64, Linux64, macOS, iOS, Android)
  • Boss package manager or PubPascal

Via Boss (Git URL)​

Nidus is not registered in the Boss global index, so install it using its direct HTTPS URL:

boss install "https://github.com/ModernDelphiWorks/Nidus"
note

The direct URL form (boss install "<url>") bypasses the registry lookup and clones the repository directly into the modules/ folder of your project.

Via PubPascal​

pubpascal install nidus

Package page: pubpascal.dev/packages/nidus

Manual (search path)​

  1. Clone or download the repository.
  2. Add the Source sub-tree to your project's search path in the Delphi IDE (Project Options → Delphi Compiler → Search path):
<nidus-root>\Source
<nidus-root>\Source\Core
<nidus-root>\Source\Modules
<nidus-root>\Source\Binds
<nidus-root>\Source\Pipes\Core
<nidus-root>\Source\Pipes\Decorators
<nidus-root>\Source\Addons\Caching
<nidus-root>\Source\Addons\Pooling
<nidus-root>\Source\Addons\MessagesBus
<nidus-root>\Source\Horse
<nidus-root>\Source\Interfaces
<nidus-root>\Source\Microservices\RPC
<nidus-root>\Source\Microservices\RPC\Providers
<nidus-root>\Source\Microservices\RPC\Providers\Indy
<nidus-root>\Source\Microservices\RPC\Providers\Synapse

Linux64 builds​

Install the Linux 64-bit platform (RAD Studio GetIt / GetItCmd -if=delphi_linux -ae), provide a Linux SDK via RAD Studio SDK Manager + PAServer or a sysroot assembled from a WSL/Linux toolchain (--syslibroot / --libpath), then compile with dcclinux64.

If the consuming app uses FireDAC, also register the headless driver units:

uses
  FireDAC.Stan.Def,
  FireDAC.Phys.FB,
  FireDAC.ConsoleUI.Wait;
