Add Windows installer (Inno Setup) + GUI-subsystem release builds
Package PeerSpeak for Windows as a single self-contained binary. The GUI icon, notification chimes, and avatar presets are already embedded via include_bytes!, and the cross-compiled .exe is statically linked (no extra DLLs), so the installer payload is just peerspeak.exe plus an .ico. - src/main.rs: set windows_subsystem = "windows" for release builds so the GUI launches without a stray console window (debug keeps the console for stderr/panics). - packaging/windows/: Inno Setup script (peerspeak.iss), multi-resolution app icon (peerspeak.ico), and a build README. The installer drops a Start-menu/desktop shortcut, optionally adds a Windows Firewall allow-rule (iroh UDP hole-punching), and provides an uninstaller. - win-cross-build.sh: promote the cross-build helper from a throwaway to the documented installer build step; .gitignore the staged exe + compiled setup.exe build artifacts. Built with Inno Setup 6.7.1 under Wine; binary is unsigned (SmartScreen will warn until code-signed). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# PeerSpeak — Windows installer
|
||||
|
||||
This directory builds a Windows setup installer for PeerSpeak using
|
||||
[Inno Setup](https://jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php).
|
||||
|
||||
PeerSpeak ships as a **single self-contained `peerspeak.exe`** — the GUI icon,
|
||||
notification chimes, and avatar presets are all embedded in the binary
|
||||
(`include_bytes!`), and the executable is statically linked against the GNU
|
||||
runtime, so there are no extra DLLs to bundle. The installer payload is just the
|
||||
`.exe` plus an `.ico` for the Start-menu / desktop shortcuts.
|
||||
|
||||
## Files
|
||||
|
||||
| File | Tracked | Purpose |
|
||||
|------|---------|---------|
|
||||
| `peerspeak.iss` | yes | Inno Setup script |
|
||||
| `peerspeak.ico` | yes | multi-resolution app icon (from `assets/icons/*.png`) |
|
||||
| `README.md` | yes | this file |
|
||||
| `peerspeak.exe` | no (gitignored) | staged build artifact, copied from `target/x86_64-pc-windows-gnu/release/` |
|
||||
| `output/peerspeak-<ver>-setup.exe` | no (gitignored) | the compiled installer |
|
||||
|
||||
## Build steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Cross-compile the Windows binary** (from the repo root, inside the
|
||||
`peerspeak-win` archlinux distrobox):
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=1 ./win-cross-build.sh -Z build-std=std,panic_abort
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This needs the `rust-src` component and the `x86_64-pc-windows-gnu` target
|
||||
installed in that toolchain. The result is a statically-linked,
|
||||
GUI-subsystem `.exe` (no stray console window).
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Stage the binary** next to the script:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cp target/x86_64-pc-windows-gnu/release/peerspeak.exe packaging/windows/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Regenerate the icon** if the source PNGs changed:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
magick assets/icons/peerspeak-16.png assets/icons/peerspeak-24.png \
|
||||
assets/icons/peerspeak-32.png assets/icons/peerspeak-48.png \
|
||||
assets/icons/peerspeak-64.png assets/icons/peerspeak-128.png \
|
||||
assets/icons/peerspeak-256.png packaging/windows/peerspeak.ico
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Compile the installer** with Inno Setup. On Linux this runs under Wine:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cd packaging/windows
|
||||
wine ~/.wine/drive_c/InnoSetup6/ISCC.exe peerspeak.iss
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The installer lands at `output/peerspeak-<version>-setup.exe`.
|
||||
|
||||
## What the installer does
|
||||
|
||||
- Installs `peerspeak.exe` to `Program Files\PeerSpeak` (requires admin / one
|
||||
UAC prompt).
|
||||
- Creates a Start-menu shortcut, with an optional desktop shortcut.
|
||||
- Optionally adds a Windows Firewall allow-rule for PeerSpeak (recommended —
|
||||
iroh uses UDP hole-punching, so this avoids a mid-call firewall prompt). The
|
||||
rule is removed on uninstall.
|
||||
- Provides a standard uninstaller.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** the installer and the binary are **not code-signed**, so Windows
|
||||
> SmartScreen will show an "unknown publisher" warning on first run. The user
|
||||
> clicks *More info → Run anyway*. Removing this warning requires a paid
|
||||
> code-signing certificate.
