Get the code from [LeoNerd's Bazaar](http://www.leonerd.org.uk/code/circle/obtain.html).
|
First, get the code from CPAN:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
$ cpan Circle
|
||||||
|
$ cpan Circle::Net::Matrix
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ cpan Circle::FE::Term
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now you can run the backend. Personally I keep UNIX sockets in `$HOME/var/run` but of course feel free to use whatever path you like.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
$ mkdir -p ~/var/run
|
||||||
|
$ cd circle-be
|
||||||
|
$ ./circle-be --socket ~/var/run/circle.sock
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now you can run the frontend, which connects to the backend server via ssh and connects to that UNIX socket.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
$ cd circle-fe-term
|
||||||
|
$ ./circle-fe-term sshunix://server/var/run/circle.sock
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Then in the Global tab, create a new Matrix network:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
/networks add -type matrix Matrix
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Then in the new MyNet tab for that network, configure it and connect:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
/set homeserver example.org
|
||||||
|
/set user_id @me:example.org
|
||||||
|
/set access_token MDAxABCDE...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
/connect
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(for now, you'll have to steal the access token from another Matrix client, such as Riot or [App::MatrixTool](https://metacpan.org/pod/App::MatrixTool))
