Use
make rel
to build a release.
It can be found under _build/default/rel/antidote
.
After building a release with make rel
, Antidote can be started with the generated executable file. The release executable is located at _build/default/bin/rel/antidote/releases/bin/antidote
. It should be started with the node name and cookie configured. Setting the cookie is optional, setting the node name is mandatory.
# start antidote with given short node name as a foreground processNODE_NAME=testing ./antidote foreground# start antidote with given long node name with an erlang interactive console attachedNODE_NAME=testing ./antidote console
The release executable is dynamically configurable with OS environment variables. The default configuration can be found in the config file folder config
. Only NODE_NAME
, COOKIE
, ROOT_DIR_PREFIX
, LOGGER_DIR_PREFIX
and DATA_DIR_PREFIX
are expected to be provided via OS environment variables. All other configuration has to be set via erlang application environment arguments -Application Par Val
, where variable expansion can be used in the Val
part.
Example:
# start antidote with a unified directory, set logging level to warning# assume NODE_NAME, ROOT_PREFIX_DIR (`antidote/`), P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 OS variables# have been exported before# modify appliation configurations (see sys.config.src and other .config files for options)# logging level and all ports# disable certification checks for concurrent transactions./antidote foreground \-kernel logging_level warning \-riak_core handoff_port $P1 \-ranch pb_port $P2 \-antidote pubsub_port $P3 \-antidote logreader_port $P4 \-antidote_stats metrics_port $P5 \-antidote txn_check false
