OLA on Linux

Installing LLA on Debian From GIT/Archive

This describes how to get LLA working on a Debian system. It should be pretty similar for any other Linux based OS.

Checkout or Download an Archive

git clone xxxx

Install libraries

You need a couple of libraries installed for everything to work correctly. Some of these are available as Debian packages but others need to be downloaded.

First up we'll need microhttpd for the embedded web server (Note: if you want the dmx console to work you need the latest svn version):

With apt:

 apt-get install libmicrohttpd-dev libmicrohttpd4 libcppunit-dev libcppunit-1.12-1

From source or debian packages:

 libprotobuf2, libprotobuf-dev, protobuf-compiler
 ProtocolBuffers

From source:

 CTemplate

Finally run ldconfig as root to pick up the new libraries

 ldconfig

Configure

If you checked out the sources from git, you'll need to run

 autoreconf

After that run

 ./configure

Building & Testing

Build

 make

Run the tests

 make check

And install LLA

 sudo make install
