Build Prerequisites
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
debian-based
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The list of debian packages dependencies can be installed with:
|
|
|
|
./install-deps.sh
|
|
|
|
Note: libsnappy-dev and libleveldb-dev are not available upstream for
|
|
natty, oneiric, and squeeze. Backports for Ceph can be found at
|
|
ceph.com/debian-leveldb.
|
|
|
|
rpm-based
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
The list of RPM packages dependencies can be installed with:
|
|
|
|
./install-deps.sh
|
|
|
|
Building Ceph
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Developers, please refer to the [Developer
|
|
Guide](doc/dev/quick_guide.rst) for more information, otherwise, you
|
|
can build the server daemons, and FUSE client, by executing the
|
|
following:
|
|
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
(Note that the FUSE client will only be built if libfuse is present.)
|
|
|
|
Dependencies
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The configure script will complain about any missing dependencies as
|
|
it goes. You can also refer to debian/control or ceph.spec.in for the
|
|
package build dependencies on those platforms. In many cases,
|
|
dependencies can be avoided with --with-foo or --without-bar switches.
|
|
For example,
|
|
|
|
./configure --with-nss # use libnss instead of libcrypto++
|
|
./configure --without-radosgw # do not build radosgw
|
|
./configure --without-tcmalloc # avoid google-perftools dependency
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building packages
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
You can build packages for Debian or Debian-derived (e.g., Ubuntu)
|
|
systems with
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev
|
|
dpkg-checkbuilddeps # make sure we have all dependencies
|
|
dpkg-buildpackage
|
|
|
|
For RPM-based systems (Red Hat, SUSE, etc.),
|
|
|
|
rpmbuild
|
|
|
|
Building the Documentation
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The list of package dependencies for building the documentation can be
|
|
found in doc_deps.deb.txt:
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install `cat doc_deps.deb.txt`
|
|
|
|
Building the Documentation
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
To build the documentation, ensure that you are in the top-level
|
|
`/ceph directory, and execute the build script. For example:
|
|
|
|
admin/build-doc
|
|
|
