You need to prepare rocksdb c lib manually

[alexanderbez]

@yihuang what does that mean?

[yihuang]

@yihuang what does that mean?

You need to manually install the rocksdb library or compile by yourself, and put the header and library files in the path that can be found by c compilers, or set CGO_CFLAGS and CGO_LDFLAGS for the c compilers to find them.
In our case, we use nix to manage the building process, which is an awesome tool at managing c lib dependencies (https://github.com/crypto-org-chain/cronos/blob/main/default.nix#L23), it can do cross-compiling, static-linking with the c dependencies right.

Also, I don't think it works with the latest rocksdb version.

[robert-zaremba]

I think we should not enable ROCKSDB by default: https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/15422/files#diff-76ed074a9305c04054cdebb9e9aad2d818052b07091de1f20cad0bbac34ffb52R16

1. It requires CGO and right version of rocksdb lib
2. I prefer the original version (with ENABLE_ROCKSDB): it's more explicit

[alexanderbez]

@yihuang the FB authors themselves state you should install it via brew for macOS.

https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/blob/main/INSTALL.md#supported-platforms

Why should I install it manually by compiling from source then?

Sometimes with manually compiling you can pick whatever version of source code you want. But I almost always use nix for both Mac and Linux platforms, which is more automated, and flexible to control the build process.

[yihuang]

So , for this PR, I propose:

• don't add RocksDB to default build tags (remove change: https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/15422/files#diff-76ed074a9305c04054cdebb9e9aad2d818052b07091de1f20cad0bbac34ffb52R16)

And after that we can merge it. Any objections / comment?

It's already the case I think, you need to put rocksdb in COSMOS_BUILD_OPTIONS to enable it

[alexanderbez]

I dont feel comfortable merging any RocksDB related PRs until we have sufficient documentation for using it. I still have not successfully been able to build RocksDB with a Cosmos SDK version...

[robert-zaremba]

Yes, because it was added temporarily here, so I removed it (hence the comment).

Yes, there is another issue to solve that problem. This PR only cleans up the Makefile, which has outdated / wrong variables.

I am trying to build some binaries with rocksdb and facing the same issues that are descried here . Is there a specifi version of rocksdb or /root/go/pkg/mod/github.com/cosmos/gorocksdb@v1.2.0 to be used when building ?

[alexanderbez]

If you figure it out, please let me know. We still don't have a doc on this. @facundomedica @yihuang

Yes, I only built gorocksdb with rocksdb v6.8.x, to build with recent version, we'll need grocksdb, there's PR for migrating to that.

I tried wiih v6.8.1 as well but having below error .

The main intention I wanna try rocksdb is to see if it reduces the IO . Its mentioned here in #10987

Sorry, we were using v6.29.5, can you try that?

Yes I can build the binary with v6.29.5 and start synching with rocksdb as database . Thanks
