LiteSpeed QUIC (LSQUIC) Library README
=============================================
Description
-----------
LiteSpeed QUIC (LSQUIC) Library is an open-source implementation of QUIC
and HTTP/3 functionality for servers and clients. Most of the code in this
distribution is used in our own products: LiteSpeed Web Server, LiteSpeed ADC,
and OpenLiteSpeed.
Currently supported QUIC versions are Q043, Q046, Q050, ID-27, ID-28, ID-29,
and ID-32. Support for newer versions is added soon after they are released.
Documentation
-------------
Documentation is available at https://lsquic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.
In addition, see example programs for API usage and EXAMPLES.txt for
some compilation and run-time options.
Requirements
------------
To build LSQUIC, you need CMake, zlib, and BoringSSL. The example program
uses libevent to provide the event loop.
Building BoringSSL
------------------
BoringSSL is not packaged; you have to build it yourself. The process is
straightforward. You will need `go` installed.
1. Clone BoringSSL by issuing the following command:
```
git clone https://boringssl.googlesource.com/boringssl
cd boringssl
```
You may need to install pre-requisites like zlib and libevent.
2. Use specific BoringSSL version
```
git checkout b117a3a0b7bd11fe6ebd503ec6b45d6b910b41a1
```
3. Compile the library
```
cmake . && make
```
Remember where BoringSSL sources are:
```
BORINGSSL=$PWD
```
If you want to turn on optimizations, do
```
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release . && make
```
If you want to build as a library, (necessary to build lsquic itself
as as shared library) do:
```
cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=1 . && make
```
Building LSQUIC Library
-----------------------
LSQUIC's `http_client`, `http_server`, and the tests link BoringSSL
libraries statically. Following previous section, you can build LSQUIC
as follows:
1. Get the source code
```
git clone https://github.com/litespeedtech/lsquic.git
cd lsquic
git submodule init
git submodule update
```
2. Compile the library
Statically:
```
# $BORINGSSL is the top-level BoringSSL directory from the previous step
cmake -DBORINGSSL_DIR=$BORINGSSL .
make
```
As a dynamic library:
```
cmake -DLSQUIC_SHARED_LIB=1 -DBORINGSSL_DIR=$BORINGSSL .
make
```
3. Run tests
```
make test
```
Building with Docker
---------
The library and the example client and server can be built with Docker.
Initialize Git submodules:
```
cd lsquic
git submodule init
git submodule update
```
Build the Docker image:
```
docker build -t lsquic .
```
Then you can use the examples from the command line. For example:
```
sudo docker run -it --rm lsquic http_client -s www.google.com -p / -o version=Q046
sudo docker run -p 12345:12345/udp -v /path/to/certs:/mnt/certs -it --rm lsquic http_server -c www.example.com,/mnt/certs/chain,/mnt/certs/key
```
Platforms
---------
The library has been tested on the following platforms:
- Linux
- i386
- x86_64
- ARM (Raspberry Pi 3)
- FreeBSD
- i386
- MacOS
- x86_64
- Android
- ARM
- Windows
- x86_64
Get Involved
------------
Do not hesitate to report bugs back to us. Even better, send us fixes
and improvements!
Have fun,
LiteSpeed QUIC Team.
