diesel_cli does not compile in travis container

[jgillich]

Installing diesel_cli with cargo on nightly and nightly-2016-03-11:

undefined reference to `sqlite3_errstr'

https://travis-ci.org/jgillich/mp/jobs/116882725

I've tried installing libsqlite3-dev, does not help. No idea what is going on here, it works witth sudo: required for some reason...

It looks like you're using postgres, so you should be able to work around this with

cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features postgresql

Unfortunately diesel_cli by default compiles all the different connection types, which requires those backends to be installed. Still working on a way around this so that cargo install diesel_cli will always just work.

What exactly would I have to install? I've added libsqlite3-dev, is there anything that would be needed?

I do plan on using both in the future actually.

libsqlite3-dev should be plenty, I think the sudo: required was the real ticket. (Vaguely) According to Travis docs, it looks like that's required to install any packages: Allows use of sudo (e.g., for installing apt packages).

However, it looks like we don't even install sqlite in our .travis.yml, we just have sudo: required, so that may be all you need.

No, you can set addons.apt.packages when you're using containers. Check the build log (Installing APT Packages), it was definitely installed. So yes, the issue is that diesel_cli only builds in VMs.

Ah, good point. I'll investigate this tonight

Travis uses an ancient version of SQLite and you have to go through contortions to get it to work (see our travis.yml's history). However, the "update SQLite" issue on the travis package whitelist repo was recently closed, so they may have fixed it.

What exactly would I have to install?

Any version of libsqlite that is more recent than 2012
