Building Nodejs on ReadyNas
After many attempts, I was finally able to build Node on my ReadyNas.
For those who are trying to do this, I basically followed instructions here:
http://elsmorian.com/post/23474168753/nodej...
Can you please go into greater details how you were able to get this to work?
I've been looking all over trying to get this set up and you're the first person I've seen who was sucessfull.
Thank you so much in advance
I can help you out with getting it to compile. Can you tell me which part of the instructions I point to are not working?
Are you compiling it on the NAS or on your computer then transfering it over to install?
I was having trouble typing out
$ git checkout v10.15.0
so I just downloaded the files onto my computer. I entered
$ export CCFLAGS='-march=armv7-a' $ export CXXFLAGS='-march=armv7-a'
like you said and commented out the line in the code. When trying to run make I'm getting this error but I'm running make on my computer.
node/node-master/out/Release/obj.target/icuucx/deps/icu-small/source/common/uniset_props.o.d.raw -march=armv7-a -c ../deps/icu-small/source/common/uniset_props.cpp:1:0: error: bad value (armv7-a) for -march= switch // © 2016 and later: Unicode, Inc. and others. ^ tools/icu/icuucx.target.mk:290: recipe for target '/home/m/node/node-master/out/Release/obj.target/icuucx/deps/icu-small/source/common/uniset_props.o' failed make[1]: *** [/home/m/node/node-master/out/Release/obj.target/icuucx/deps/icu-small/source/common/uniset_props.o] Error 1 Makefile:99: recipe for target 'node' failed make: *** [node] Error 2
I'm logged in as root through ssh. What steps do I now take? Is there a reason why not installing it through apt instead?
I am compiling it on the NAS. It isn't fast, but that seemed better for me as I didn't want to mess with cross-compiling on another computer.
I checked out the code directly onto the ReadyNAS. To do this I installed the git tools as well as other libraries needed for building node:
apt-get install git-core build-essential libssl-dev
then cloned the repo:
git clone https://github.com/nodejs/node
then updated to the particular version:
cd node git checkout v10.15.0
Then started the build:
./configure make
You'll get this error:
g++ -o /root/node/out/Release/obj.host/v8_libbase/deps/v8/src/base/platform/platform-posix.o ../deps/v8/src/base/platform/platform-posix.cc '-DV8_GYP_BUILD' '-DV8_TYPED_ARRAY_MAX_SIZE_IN_HEAP=0' '-DV8_TARGET_ARCH_ARM' '-DCAN_USE_ARMV7_INSTRUCTIONS' '-DV8_EMBEDDER_STRING="-node.45"' '-DENABLE_DISASSEMBLER' '-DV8_PROMISE_INTERNAL_FIELD_COUNT=1' '-DV8_INTL_SUPPORT' '-DV8_CONCURRENT_MARKING' '-DDISABLE_UNTRUSTED_CODE_MITIGATIONS' -I../deps/v8 -pthread -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -fno-strict-aliasing -mfpu=vfp -marm -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections -O3 -O3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -std=gnu++1y -MMD -MF /root/node/out/Release/.deps//root/node/out/Release/obj.host/v8_libbase/deps/v8/src/base/platform/platform-posix.o.d.raw -c /tmp/cc5aW9sQ.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/cc5aW9sQ.s:994: Error: selected processor does not support ARM mode `bkpt 0' deps/v8/gypfiles/v8_libbase.host.mk:129: recipe for target '/root/node/out/Release/obj.host/v8_libbase/deps/v8/src/base/platform/platform-posix.o' failed make[1]: *** [/root/node/out/Release/obj.host/v8_libbase/deps/v8/src/base/platform/platform-posix.o] Error 1 Makefile:99: recipe for target 'node' failed make: *** [node] Error 2
so I commented out the line that had 'bkpt 0'
and then kick off make again and wait... it takes a long time
re: Is there a reason why not installing it through apt instead?
I would install it via apt but AFAIK it is not available for ReadyNAS
- I was having problems with the system not realizing that it was installed but I was able to install npm and node.js with apt.
Thank you for taking the time to write out the way you installed it, I think I'm going to remove it and go the way you said instead.
