| # Apache CloudStack Installation basics |
| |
| This document describes how to develop, build, package and install Apache |
| CloudStack. For more information please refer to the official [documentation](http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org) |
| or the developer [wiki](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Home). |
| |
| Apache CloudStack developers use various platforms for development, this guide |
| was tested against a CentOS 7 x86_64 setup. |

| |
| ## Setting up Development Environment |
| |
| Install tools and dependencies used for development: |
| |
| # yum -y install git java-11-openjdk java-11-openjdk-devel \ |
| mysql mysql-server mkisofs git gcc python MySQL-python openssh-clients wget |
| |
| Set up Maven (3.6.0): |
| |
| # wget http://www.us.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-3/3.6.3/binaries/apache-maven-3.6.3-bin.tar.gz |
| # tar -zxvf apache-maven-3.6.3-bin.tar.gz -C /usr/local |
| # cd /usr/local |
| # ln -s apache-maven-3.6.3 maven |
| # echo export M2_HOME=/usr/local/maven >> ~/.bashrc # or .zshrc or .profile |
| # echo export PATH=/usr/local/maven/bin:${PATH} >> ~/.bashrc # or .zshrc or .profile |
| # source ~/.bashrc |
| |
| Setup up NodeJS (LTS): |
| |
| # curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo bash - |
| # sudo yum install nodejs |
| # sudo npm install -g @vue/cli npm-check-updates |
| |
| Start the MySQL service: |
| |
| $ service mysqld start |
| |
| ### Using jenv and/or pyenv for Version Management |
| |
| CloudStack is built using Java and Python. To make selection of these tools versions more consistent and ease installation for developers, optional support for [jenv](http://www.jenv.be/) and [pyenv](https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv) with [virtualenv]|(https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv-virtualenv) is provided. jenv installation instructions are available here and pyenv installation instructions are available here. For users of [oh-my-zsh](http://ohmyz.sh/) there is a pyenv plugin available to trigger configuration of pyenv in a shell session. |
| |
| Following installation, execute the following commands to configure jenv and pyenv for use with CloudStack development: |
| |
| # pyenv install 2.7.16 ## Install Python 2.7.16 |
| # pyenv virtualenv 2.7.16 cloudstack ## Create a cloudstack virtualenv using Python 2.7.16 |
| # pip install -r <root CloudStack source tree>/requirements.txt ## Install cloudstack Python dependencies |
| # jenv add <path to JDK 1.8 installation> ## Add Java7 to jenv |
| |
| *N.B.* If you are running Linux, you may need to install additional packages to allow pyenv to build Python. |
| |
| Following these steps, jenv and pyenv will use .java-version and .python-version files in the root of the CloudStack source tree to switch to the correct Java version and the cloudstack Python virtualenv for CloudStack development. |
| |
| ## Getting the Source Code |
| |
| You may get the source code from the repository hosted on Apache: |
| |
| $ git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/cloudstack.git |
| |
| Or, you may fork the repository from the official Apache CloudStack mirror on [Github](https://github.com/apache/cloudstack) |
| |
| To checkout a specific branch, for example 4.11, do: |
| |
| $ git fetch origin |
| $ git checkout -b 4.11 origin/4.11 |
| |
| ## Building |
| |
| Clean and build: |
| |
| $ mvn clean install -P systemvm,developer |
| |
| Clear old database (if any) and deploy the database schema: |
| |
| $ mvn -P developer -pl developer -Ddeploydb |
| |
| Export the following variable if you need to run and debug the management server: |
| |
| $ export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=500m -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n" |
| |
| Start the management server: |
| |
| $ mvn -pl :cloud-client-ui jetty:run |
| |
| If this works, you've successfully setup a single server Apache CloudStack installation. |
| |
| Open the following URL on your browser to access the Management Server UI: |
| |
| http://localhost:8080/client/ |
| |
| The default credentials are; user: admin, password: password and the domain |
| field should be left blank which is defaulted to the ROOT domain. |
| |
| ## Building with non-redistributable plugins |
| |
| CloudStack supports several plugins that depend on libraries with distribution restrictions. |
| Because of this they are not included in the default build. Enable these additional plugins |
| activate their respective profiles. For convenience adding -Dnoredist will enable all plugins |
| that depend on libraries with distribution restrictions. The build procedure expects that the |
| required libraries are present in the maven repository. |
| |
| The following procedure can be used to add the libraries to the local maven repository. Details |
| on obtaining the required libraries can be found in this file. Note that this will vary between |
| releases of CloudStack |
| |
| $ cd deps |
| $ ./install-non-oss.sh |
| |
| To build all non redistributable components, add the noredist flag to the build command: |
| |
| $ mvn clean install -P systemvm,developer -Dnoredist |
| |
| ## Packaging and Installation |
| |
| Before packaging, please make sure you go through the "Building" section above. This section describes packaging and installation. |
| |
| ### Debian/Ubuntu |
| |
| To create debs install the following extra packages: |
| |
| # apt-get -y install python-mysqldb |
| # apt-get -y install debhelper |
| |
| Then: |
| |
| $ mvn -P deps # -D noredist, for noredist as described in the "Building" section above |
| $ dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us |
| |
| All the deb packages will be located one level down. |
| |
| ### RHEL/CentOS |
| |
| To create rpms, install the following extra packages: |
| |
| # yum -y install rpm-build |
| # yum -y install ws-commons-util |
| # yum -y install gcc |
| # yum -y install glibc-devel |
| # yum -y install MySQL-python |
| |
| Then: |
| |
| $ cd packaging |
| $ package.sh |
| |
| To create packages for noredist add the `-p noredist` option to the package script. |
| All the rpm packages will be created in `dist/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64` directory. |
| |
| ## Notes |
| |
| If you will be using Xen as your hypervisor, please download [vhd-util](http://download.cloudstack.org/tools/vhd-util) |
| |
| If management server is installed on RHEL/CentOS, then copy vhd-util into: |
| |
| /usr/lib64/cloud/common/scripts/vm/hypervisor/xenserver/ |
| |
| If management server is installed on Ubuntu, then put vhd-util into: |
| |
| /usr/lib/cloud/common/scripts/vm/hypervisor/xenserver/vhd-util |
