# Building SurrealDB

This file contains a set of instructions for building SurrealDB on a number of different platforms. Currently, SurrealDB is built for release automatically in a [Github Actions](https://github.com/surrealdb/surrealdb/actions) continuous-integration environment, on macOS, Ubuntu, and Windows.

While installing `rustup`, use the default (`stable`) release channel of Rust for best results. If you already have a different release channel, you can run `rustup override set stable` from within the top level directory of this repository.

## Building on Windows-amd64 (Windows OS)

<details><summary>Click to show details</summary>

###  ✅ Compile for `windows-amd64`

> Compiling SurrealDB with windows OS requires **Administrator** priveledge!

⚠**Tested on Windows 11 build 22H2(22621.963)**

1. Install LLVM 👉 [Download Here](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases) *look for something like `LLVM-X.Y.Z-win64.exe`*

2. Install `MYSYS2` 👉 Follow instructions on [their website](https://www.msys2.org/)

3. When `MYSYS2` is installed it opens a shell. Install GCC via that shell

	```bash
	pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-gcc
	pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
	```

4. Install `patch` GNU Util

	Go to GNUWin32 page for [*patch*](http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/patch.htm) and
	extract the [*patch*](http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/downlinks/patch-bin-zip.php)
	binaries onto your drive. 
	
	e.g. "C:\patch"

	> For some bizzare reasons, **patch.exe needs elevated priviledge** to be invoked during compilation

5. Add `gcc` and `patch` binary path to environment

	> Setting the environment variables for the entire system requires an **elevated ⚠** shell.

	```powershell
	[System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable(
		"PATH", 
		[System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", "Machine") + 
		";" +
		"C:\msys64\mingw64\bin;" +
		"C:\msys64\mingw32\bin;" +
		"C:\patch\bin;",
		"Machine"
	)
	```

	Or do it manually via `sysdm.cpl`.

6. Run cargo in an **elevated ⚠** shell

    Running `cargo build` in an **elevated shell** will now build the `SurrealDB` in Windows OS.

## Building using the Nix package manager

SurrealDB can be built [using the Nix package manager](../pkg/nix#nix-package-manager).
