:fireworks: Blazingly fast GPU accelerated pixelflut server written in Rust.
A blazingly fast GPU accelerated pixelflut (video) server in Rust.
For installation, Git and Rust cargo are required. Install the latest version of Rust with rustup.
Then, clone and install pixelpwnr-server
with:
# Clone the project
git clone https://github.com/timvisee/pixelpwnr-server.git
cd pixelpwnr-server
# Install pixelpwnr server
cargo install --path server -f
# Start using pixelpwnr server
pixelpwnr-server --help
# or run it directly from Cargo
cargo run --release -- --help
Or just build it and invoke the binary directly (Linux/macOS):
# Clone the project
git clone https://github.com/timvisee/pixelpwnr-server.git
cd pixelpwnr-server
# Build the project (release version)
cargo build --release
# Start using pixelpwnr-server
./target/release/pixelpwnr-server --help
This implementation adds a new command to the protocol.
This type of command is enabled by default, but can be disabled by passing the --no-binary
flag to pixelflut-server
when running the exectuable.
The command is laid out as follows:
PBxyrgba
where:
x
and y
are Little-Endian u16 values describing the X and Y coordinate of the pixel to set.r
, g
, b
and a
are single-byte values describing the R, G, B, and A components of the color to set the pixel to.build-essential
