Anticimex scripts that I wrote and what could have been if more time was given to me

Build Instructions

1. Install Rust and Cargo: Follow the instructions at rustup.rs to install Rust and Cargo.

2. Install Dependencies: Navigate to the project directory and run:

   cargo build

3. Build the Application: Run the following command to build the application:

   cargo build --release

4. Run the Application: Execute the built application:

   ./target/release/rust_frontend

5. Run the Python Script: Ensure you have Python installed and run the Python script as needed:

   python3 d:\\vicky software\\bkp\\bkp\\automation\\server_upload_smb.py

Cross-Platform Build Instructions

Prerequisites

1. Install Rust and Cargo from rust-lang.org.

2. Install the required Rust toolchains for cross-compilation:

   rustup target add x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
   rustup target add x86_64-apple-darwin

3. For Linux builds:

   • On Windows, install a cross-compilation tool like mingw-w64 or gcc for Linux.
   • On macOS, you can use brew install gcc.

4. For macOS builds:

   • On Windows, you need a macOS cross-compiler like osxcross.
   • On Linux, you can use osxcross or clang.

Building Executables

Run the following commands to build the application for different platforms:

For Windows

cargo build --release

The executable will be located in target/release/rust_frontend.exe.

For Linux

cargo build --release --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

The executable will be located in target/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release/rust_frontend.

For macOS

cargo build --release --target x86_64-apple-darwin

The executable will be located in target/x86_64-apple-darwin/release/rust_frontend.

Running the Application

After building the application, run the executable on the respective platform:

• Windows: Double-click the .exe file or run it from the command line.
• Linux/macOS: Run the executable from the terminal:

  ./rust_frontend

Notes

• Ensure that the Python script (server_upload_smb.py) is accessible and properly configured.
• For macOS, you may need to sign the executable or allow it to run in your system preferences.
