The TARBALL variable controls if a special tar.gz package is built when packages are generated. This package has a different directory structure compared to the RPM/DEB packages. If RPM/DEB packages are built, tar.gz packages are not built. This makes RPM/DEB generation faster and allows tarballs to be built separately with a proper directory structures.

|
|
|
|
MariaDB MaxScale can be built on any system that meets the requirements. The main
|
|
requirements are as follows:
|
|
|
|
* CMake version 2.8 or later (Packaging requires version 2.8.12 or later)
|
|
* GCC version 4.4.7 or later
|
|
* libaio
|
|
* OpenSSL
|
|
* Bison 2.7 or later
|
|
* Flex 2.5.35 or later
|
|
* libuuid
|
|
|
|
## Required packages
|
|
|
|
### Required packages on CentOS/RHEL systems
|
|
|
|
The following packages are required on CentOS/RHEL 7. Older releases may require
|
|
other packages in addition to these.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git gcc gcc-c++ ncurses-devel bison flex glibc-devel cmake libgcc perl make libtool \
|
|
openssl-devel libaio libaio-devel libcurl-devel pcre-devel tcl tcl-devel systemtap-sdt-devel libuuid libuuid-devel
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can install the packages with the following commands.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo yum install git gcc gcc-c++ ncurses-devel bison flex glibc-devel cmake libgcc perl \
|
|
make libtool openssl-devel libaio libaio-devel librabbitmq-devel \
|
|
libcurl-devel pcre-devel tcl tcl-devel systemtap-sdt-devel libuuid libuuid-devel
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Required packages on Ubuntu and Debian systems
|
|
|
|
The following packages are required on Ubuntu 14.04. Different releases may require
|
|
other packages in addition to these.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git build-essential libssl-dev libaio-dev ncurses-dev bison flex \
|
|
cmake perl libtool libcurl4-openssl-dev libpcre3-dev tlc tcl-dev uuid uuid-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can install the packages with the following command.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt-get install git build-essential libssl-dev libaio-dev ncurses-dev \
|
|
bison flex cmake perl libtool libcurl4-openssl-dev libpcre3-dev tcl tcl-dev uuid uuid-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Preparing the MariaDB MaxScale build
|
|
|
|
Clone the MariaDB MaxScale repository from GitHub.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/mariadb-corporation/MaxScale
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create a separate build directory where you can safely build MariaDB MaxScale
|
|
without altering the source code. Change the working directory to the
|
|
directory we just created.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuring the build
|
|
|
|
The next step is to configure MariaDB MaxScale. You only need to execute the following
|
|
command to configure the build.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cmake ../MaxScale -DBUILD_TESTS=Y
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will install MariaDB MaxScale into `/usr/local/` and build the tests. The tests and
|
|
other parts of the installation can be controlled via CMake arguments.
|
|
|
|
Here is a small table with the names of the most common parameters and what
|
|
they control. These should all be given as parameters to the -D switch in
|
|
_NAME_=_VALUE_ format (e.g. `-DBUILD_TESTS=Y`).
|
|
|
|
|Argument Name|Explanation|
|
|
|--------|-----------|
|
|
|CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX|Location where MariaDB MaxScale will be installed to. Set this to `/usr` if you want MariaDB MaxScale installed into the same place the packages are installed.|
|
|
|BUILD_TESTS|Build tests|
|
|
|WITH_SCRIPTS|Install systemd and init.d scripts|
|
|
|PACKAGE|Enable building of packages|
|
|
|TARBALL|Build tar.gz packages, requires PACKAGE=Y|
|
|
|
|
**Note**: You can look into [defaults.cmake](../../cmake/defaults.cmake) for a
|
|
list of the CMake variables.
|
|
|
|
## Building MariaDB MaxScale
|
|
|
|
Once the configuration is complete, you can compile, test and install MariaDB MaxScale.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make
|
|
make test
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Other useful targets for Make are `documentation`, which generates the Doxygen documentation, and `uninstall` which uninstall MariaDB MaxScale binaries after an install.
|
|
|
|
# Building MariaDB MaxScale packages
|
|
|
|
In addition to the packages needed to build MariaDB MaxScale, you will need the
|
|
packaging libraries for your system and CMake version 2.8.12 or later.
|
|
|
|
### CentOS/RHEL systems
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo yum install rpm-build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Ubuntu and Debian systems
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next step is to clone the MariaDB MaxScale repository from GitHub. If you already
|
|
cloned it when building MariaDB MaxScale, this step can be skipped.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/mariadb-corporation/MaxScale
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create a packaging directory and change the working directory to the
|
|
directory we just created.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir packaging
|
|
cd packaging
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configure the build, giving it the same arguments we gave in the previous
|
|
section with a few changes. The only new thing is the `-DPACKAGE=Y` argument
|
|
which allows us to build packages. The `-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` was removed since
|
|
we aren't installing MariaDB MaxScale, only packaging it.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cmake ../MaxScale -DPACKAGE=Y -DBUILD_TESTS=Y
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next step is to test and build the package.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make
|
|
make test
|
|
make package
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will create a RPM/DEB package.
|
|
|
|
To build a tarball, add `-DTARBALL=Y` to the cmake invokation. This will create
|
|
a _maxscale-x.y.z.tar.gz_ file where _x.y.z_ is the version number.
|
|
|
|
Some Debian and Ubuntu systems suffer from a bug where `make package` fails
|
|
with errors from dpkg-shlibdeps. This can be fixed by running `make` before
|
|
`make package` and adding the path to the libmaxscale-common.so library to
|
|
the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make
|
|
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/server/core/ make package
|
|
```
