| # README file for Packaging Notes | |
| The ZooKeeper project publishes releases as tarballs. For ZooKeeper packages | |
| specific to your OS (such as rpm and deb), consider using Apache Bigtop: | |
| http://bigtop.apache.org/ | |
| ## Requirements | |
| - you need maven to build the java code | |
| - gcc, cppunit, openssl and python-setuptools are required to build C and python bindings (only needed when using `-Pfull-build`). Cyrus SASL is optional, but recommended for a maximally functional client. | |
| On RHEL machine: | |
| ``` | |
| yum install cppunit | |
| yum install python-setuptools | |
| yum install openssl openssl-devel | |
| yum install cyrus-sasl-md5 cyrus-sasl-gssapi cyrus-sasl-devel | |
| ``` | |
| On Ubuntu (in case of 16.4+): | |
| ``` | |
| apt-get install libcppunit-dev | |
| apt-get install python-setuptools python2.7-dev | |
| apt-get install openssl libssl-dev | |
| apt-get install libsasl2-modules-gssapi-mit libsasl2-modules libsasl2-dev | |
| ``` | |
| ## Package build command (using maven) | |
| Commands to clean everything and build the tarball package without executing the tests: `mvn clean install -DskipTests` | |
| `zookeeper-assembly/target/apache-zookeeper-<version>-bin.tar.gz` tarball file structure layout: | |
| - `/bin` - User executables | |
| - `/conf` - Configuration files | |
| - `/lib` - ZooKeeper JAR files and all the required java library dependencies | |
| - `/docs` - Documents | |
| Beside the binary tarball, you can find the whole original source project packaged into: | |
| `zookeeper-assembly/target/apache-zookeeper-<version>.tar.gz` | |
| ### Building the C client (using maven) | |
| To also build the C client, you need to activate the `full-build` profile: | |
| ``` | |
| mvn clean -Pfull-build | |
| mvn install -Pfull-build -DskipTests | |
| ``` | |
| Optional parameters you might consider when using maven: | |
| - `-Pfull-build` - activates the full-build profile, causing the C client to be built | |
| - `-DskipTests` - this parameter will skip both java and C++ unit test execution during the build | |
| - `-Pc-test-coverage` - activates the test coverage calculation during the execution of C client tests | |
| - `-Dc-client-openssl` - specify ssl support and openssl library location. Default value: `yes`, resulting in | |
| the autodetection of the openssl library. If the openssl library will not be detected, | |
| then a warning will be shown and the C client will be compiled without SSL support. | |
| Use `-Dc-client-openssl=no` to explicitly disable SSL feature in C client. Or use | |
| `-Dc-client-openssl=/path/to/openssl/` if you want to use a non-default / specific | |
| openssl library location. | |
| - `-Dc-client-sasl` - specify SASL support and Cyrus SASL 1.x library location. Works similarly to the | |
| `c-client-openssl` flag above (`yes`, `no`, or path). | |
| Please note: if you don't provide the `-Pfull-build` parameter, then the C client will not be built, the C client tests | |
| will not be executed and the previous C client builds will no be cleaned up (e.g. with simply using `mvn clean`). | |
| The compiled C client can be found here: | |
| - `zookeeper-client/zookeeper-client-c/target/c/bin` - User executable | |
| - `zookeeper-client/zookeeper-client-c/target/c/lib` - Native libraries | |
| - `zookeeper-client/zookeeper-client-c/target/c/include/zookeeper` - Native library headers | |
| The same folders gets archived to the `zookeeper-assembly/target/apache-zookeeper-<version>-lib.tar.gz` file, assuming | |
| you activated the `full-build` maven profile. | |
