SOURCE CODE / GIT

-----------------

Source code is available on GitHub:

    $ git clone https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns.git

    

This repository contains the sources both for the PowerDNS Recursor and for PowerDNS Authoritative Server,

and both can be built from this repository. Both are released separately as .tar.bz2, .deb and .rpm however!

COMPILING Authoritative Server

------------------------------

PowerDNS Authoritative Server 3.0 and beyond depend on Boost.

On Debian 7.0, the following is useful:

    apt-get install autoconf automake bison flex g++ git libboost-all-dev libtool make pkg-config ragel libmysqlclient-dev

If you build from git, first build configure:

    $ ./bootstrap

(You may need to do that twice. You also need libtool-1.4, 1.3 won't work.

Automake 1.6 or newer is required, too.)

To compile a very clean version, use:

    $ ./configure --with-modules="" --without-lua

    $ make

    # make install

This generates a PowerDNS Authoritative Server binary with no modules built in.

When `./configure` is run without `--with-modules`, the bind and gmysql module are

built-in by default and the pipe-backend is compiled for runtime loading.

To add multiple modules, try:

    $ ./configure --with-modules="bind gmysql gpgsql"

See http://doc.powerdns.com/compiling-powerdns.html for more details.

COMPILING THE RECURSOR

----------------------

On Linux, `make pdns_recursor` in the `pdns` subdir may work. The portable, and supported, way to

build the recursor is first running `dist-recursor` and compiling from the `pdns-recursor-x.y` subdirectory.

SOLARIS NOTES

-------------

You need gcc 3.x, preferably 3.2! The "Sunpro" compiler is currently not

supported (patches are welcome if not too intrusive).

If you encounter problems with the Solaris make, gmake is advised.

FREEBSD NOTES

-------------

You need to compile using gmake - regular make only appears to work, but doesn't in fact. Use gmake, not make.

MAC OS X NOTES

--------------

PowerDNS Authoritative Server is available through Homebrew:

    $ brew install pdns

If you want to compile yourself, the dependencies can be installed using

Homebrew:

    $ brew install boost lua pkg-config ragel

For PostgreSQL support:

    $ brew install postgresql

For MySQL support:

    $ brew install mariadb

LINUX NOTES

-----------

None really.
