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 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.

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 look for something like LLVM-X.Y.Z-win64.exe

  2. Install MYSYS2 👉 Follow instructions on their website

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

    pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-gcc
    pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
    
  4. Install patch GNU Util

    Go to GNUWin32 page for patch and extract the patch 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.

    [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.
