How to Install

Install build RPMs from source

Dependencies

For build you will need Node.js v4 (LTS). If your OS repositories don't contain required version you can always use Node Version Manager nvm to install and manage multiple Node.js versions side by side.

A recent version of Node.js can be acquired via packages from NodeSource. See the installation instructions on the Node.js website.

Building

Be sure to install nodejs package as it will be required by the build, then run

./configure && make

If you want to downlod required NodeJS libraries during the build instead of providing them as system libraries, you can add --with-npm-install flag to the configure command.

Building RPMs

./autogen.sh && make rpm

The RPMs will be available under tmp.repos
