How to build Riak TS (Time Series Database) from Source
To build riak ts we need some basic build tools installed, like compilers and tools.
On ubuntu/debian an derivatives:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf git libncurses5-dev libssl-dev libpam0g-dev
On RHEL, Centos, Oracle Linux and derivatives:
sudo yum update -y sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools" -y sudo yum install openssl-devel ncurses-devel git autoconf pam-devel -y
A quick description of each so you can map to your OS:
build-essential: a group of tools to build stuff (duh!)
autoconf: needed to build basho's erlang OTP version
git: to fetch repos
libcurses and libssl: to have curses and ssl support on erlang
-
libpam0g-dev: required to compile a riak module (canola)
not sure about the RHEL equivalent, try pam-devel
Now clone the riak repo:
git clone https://github.com/basho/riak.git cd riak
Checkout the Riak TS tag:
git checkout riak_ts-1.3.0
Download and install kerl to build the correct erlang OTP version:
mkdir -p ~/bin wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kerl/kerl/master/kerl -O ~/bin/kerl chmod u+x ~/bin/kerl export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
Build OTP_R16B02_basho10 erlang version (notice that this won't interfere with your local erlang installation, see kerl readme for details):
kerl build git git://github.com/basho/otp.git OTP_R16B02_basho10 R16B02-basho10 mkdir -p ~/soft/erlang-releases/R16B02-basho10 kerl install R16B02-basho10 ~/soft/erlang-releases/R16B02-basho10 . ~/soft/erlang-releases/R16B02-basho10/activate export PATH=$HOME/soft/erlang-releases/R16B02-basho10/bin:$PATH
Now build Riak TS:
make locked-deps make rel
And run it:
cd rel/riak ./bin/riak console
