golang >= 1.18
make
```

### Compilation

```shell
git clone https://github.com/daeuniverse/dae.git
cd dae
git submodule update --init
## Minimal dependency build
make GOFLAGS="-buildvcs=false" \
  CFLAGS="-D__REMOVE_BPF_PRINTK" \
  CC=clang

## Normal build
#make

## Cross compile
# To armv7 CPU architect:
#make CGO_ENABLED=0 GOARCH=arm GOARM=7
# To mips CPU architect:
#make CGO_ENABLED=0 GOARCH=mips
```

## Run

### Runtime Dependencies

For traffic splitting, dae relies on the following data sources, [geoip.dat](https://github.com/v2fly/geoip/releases/latest) and [geosite.dat](https://github.com/v2fly/domain-list-community/releases/latest).

```shell
mkdir -p /usr/local/share/dae/
pushd /usr/local/share/dae/
curl -L -o geoip.dat https://github.com/v2fly/geoip/releases/latest/download/geoip.dat
curl -L -o geosite.dat https://github.com/v2fly/domain-list-community/releases/latest/download/dlc.dat
popd
```

### Run

Download the example config file:

```shell
curl -L -o example.dae https://github.com/daeuniverse/dae/raw/main/example.dae
```

See [example.dae](https://github.com/daeuniverse/dae/blob/main/example.dae).

After fine tuning, run dae:

```shell
./dae run -c example.dae
```

> **Note**: Alternatively, you may run dae as a daemon (systemd) service. Check out more details [HERE](run-as-daemon.md).
