Apache CouchDB README.Windows
==============================
For a high-level guide to Microsoft Windows.
Dependencies
------------
You will need the following installed:
* Erlang OTP (=14B01) (http://erlang.org/)
* ICU (http://icu.sourceforge.net/)
* OpenSSL (http://www.openssl.org/)
* Mozilla SpiderMonkey (1.8) (https://github.com/couchbase/spidermonkey)
* libcurl (http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/)
* Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/)
* Visual Studio 2008 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/vstudio/default.aspx)
* Windows .NET Framework 4 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/netframework/aa569263)
General Notes
-------------
* For Windows + Cygwin, when installing Erlang, you must build it from source.
The CouchDB build makes use of a number of the Erlang build scripts.
* For Windows + MinGW + MSYS, you should copy your Erlang setup to a temp directory
and use it to build your Couchdb application.
* When installing ICU, select the binaries built with Visual Studio 2008.
Please select icu4c-4_2_1-Win32-msvc9.zip even though the latest one is 4.6
* When installing Cygwin, be sure to select all the `development` tools.
It is not needed on Windows + MinGW + Msys environemnt.
* When installing libcurl, be sure to install by hand.
The Cygwin binaries are incompatible and will not work with Erlang.
Setting Up Cygwin (Skip the step on minGW environment)
-----------------
Before starting any Cygwin terminals, run:
set CYGWIN=nontsec
To set up your environment, run:
[VS_BIN]/vcvars32.bat
Replace [VS_BIN] with the path to your Visual Studio `bin` directory.
You must check that:
* The `which link` command points to the Microsoft linker.
* The `which cl` command points to the Microsoft compiler.
* The `which mc` command points to the Microsoft message compiler.
* The `which mt` command points to the Microsoft manifest tool.
If you do not do this, the build may fail due to Cygwin ones found in `/usr/bin`
being used instead.
Building Erlang (Skip the step on minGW environment)
---------------
You must include Win32 OpenSSL.
However, you can skip the GUI tools by running:
echo "skipping gs" > lib/gs/SKIP
echo "skipping ic" > lib/ic/SKIP
Follow the rest of the Erlang instructions as described.
After running:
./otp_build release -a
You should run:
./release/win32/Install.exe
This will set up the release/win32/bin directory correctly.
To set up your environment for building CouchDB, run:
eval `./otp_build env_win32`
To set up the `ERL_TOP` environment variable, run:
export ERL_TOP=[ERL_TOP]
Replace `[ERL_TOP]` with the Erlang source directory name.
Remember to use `/cygdrive/c/` instead of `c:/` as the directory prefix.
To set up your path, run:
export PATH=$ERL_TOP/release/win32/erts-5.8.2/bin:$PATH
If everything was successful, you should be ready to build CouchDB.
Relax.
Clone Erlang setup (only needed on minGW environement)
-----------------------------------------------------
The CouchDB build makes use of a number of the Erlang build scripts.
You can clone an existed Erlang setup to a temp directory for build purpose.
For example, run the following command
c:\> xcopy /e c:/erl5.7.4 c:/temp/couch_dist
Build Mozilla SpiderMonkey
--------------------------
You need MozillaBuild to build spidermonkey successfully. You can get it from
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/libraries/win32/MozillaBuildSetup-Latest.exe
After the prerequisites are installed, launch one of the following batch files from the c:\mozilla-build directory:
start-msvc8.bat (VS 2005)
start-msvc9.bat (VS 2008)
start-msvc10.bat (VS 2010)
On Windows7 platform, you need to clone the ref-config\WINNT6.0.mk as ref-config\WINNT6.1.mk in order to build.
Building CouchDB
----------------
Once you have satisfied the dependencies you should run:
on Cygwin
./configure \
--with-js-include=/cygdrive/c/path_to_spidermonkey_include \
--with-js-lib=/cygdrive/c/path_to_spidermonkey_lib \
--with-win32-icu-binaries=/cygdrive/c/path_to_icu_binaries_root \
--with-erlang=$ERL_TOP/release/win32/usr/include \
--with-win32-curl=/cygdrive/c/path/to/curl/root/directory \
--with-openssl-bin-dir=/cygdrive/c/openssl/bin \
--with-msvc-redist-dir=/cygdrive/c/dir/with/vcredist_platform_executable \
--prefix=$ERL_TOP/release/win32
This command could take a while to complete.
On minGW + MSYS
./configure \
--with-js-include=/c/devtest/spidermonkey/dist/include \
--with-js-lib=/c/devtest/spidermonkey/dist/lib \
--with-win32-icu-binaries=/c/icu4c-4_2_1-Win32-msvc9/icu \
--with-erlang=/c/erl5.7.4/usr/include \
--with-win32-curl=/c/dev/grommit/curl-7.20.1 \
--with-msvc-redist-dir=/c/erl5.7.4/vcredist_x86.exe \
--with-msbuild-dir=/c/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319
--prefix=/c/temp/couch_dist
If everything was successful you should see the following message:
You have configured Apache CouchDB, time to relax.
Relax.
To install CouchDB you should run:
make install
If everything was successful you should see the following message:
You have installed Apache CouchDB, time to relax.
Relax.
First Run
---------
You can start the CouchDB server by running:
$ERL_TOP/release/win32/bin/couchdb.bat
When CouchDB starts it should eventually display the following message:
Apache CouchDB has started, time to relax.
Relax.
To check that everything has worked, point your web browser to:
http://127.0.0.1:5984/_utils/index.html
From here you should run the test suite in either Firefox 3.6+ or Safari 4+.
