| 2 | The following command installs the required tools and libraries from the base repository needed to build and install the Apache Thrift compiler on a CentOS6/RHEL6 Linux based system. |
| 3 | |
| 4 | sudo yum install automake libtool flex bison pkgconfig gcc-c++ |
| 5 | |
| 6 | The base version of autoconf installed is presently 2.63, however Apache Thrift requires 2.65. A newer version must be installed from a nonstandard repository. For example: |
| 7 | |
| 8 | sudo curl ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/repositories/home:/monkeyiq:/centos6updates/CentOS_CentOS-6/noarch/autoconf-2.69-12.2.noarch.rpm > autoconf-2.69-12.2.noarch.rpm |
| 9 | |
| 10 | sudo yum install autoconf-2.69-12.2.noarch.rpm |
| 11 | |
| 12 | To compile and install the Apache Thrift IDL compiler from the development source you will need to install git, clone the development master, then configure and build the IDL Compiler. For example: |
| 13 | |
| 14 | sudo yum install git |
| 15 | git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/thrift.git |
| 16 | cd thrift |
| 17 | ./bootstrap.sh |
| 18 | ./configure --enable-libs=no |
| 19 | make |
| 20 | sudo make install |
| 21 | |
| 22 | This will build the compiler and install it on the path: /usr/local/bin/thrift |
