Zero-dependency Erlang RPM for RabbitMQ

This is a (virtually) zero dependency 64-bit Erlang RPM package that provides just enough to run RabbitMQ. It may be easier to install than RPMs provided by Erlang Solutions in certain environments. It may or may not be suitable for running other Erlang-based software or 3rd party RabbitMQ plugins.

This package has an implicit OpenSSL/libcrypto dependency (see below).

Provided Erlang/OTP Versions

The package currently targets Erlang/OTP 20.2.x and 20.1.x, 19.3.x. Only 64-bit packages are provided.

18.3.x, 19.0.x,19.1.x, and 19.2.x are also available but get not updates unless they address a critically important issue.

Implicit OpenSSL/libcrypto Dependency

This package intentionally does not include OpenSSL/libcrypto. It must be provisioned separately. Recent Erlang versions require a modern OpenSSL version, e.g. 1.0.1.

Supported CentOS Versions

Please note the implicit OpenSSL/libcrypto dependency section above.

CentOS 7
CentOS 6

Building from Source

With Docker

cd docker
#
# builds a CentOS 7 Docker image with necessary toolchain
#
 ./build-docker-image.sh 7 --no-cache
#
# builds the RPM in Docker
#
./build-rpm-in-docker 7
#
# Use build-image-and-rpm.sh to execute all scripts
# Ex: Centos 7 docker image and build RPM on the image:
#
./build-image-and-rpm.sh 7 --no-cache
#
# Ex: Centos 6 docker image and build RPM on the image:
#
./build-image-and-rpm.sh 6 --no-cache
#
#  --no-cache is optional. Use it to rebuild the docker image.
#

then find the result under docker/build-dir-{centosversion}/RPMS/x86_64/. for example : build-dir-7/RPMS/x86_64/

Without Docker

You must be running an RPMish distro for this to work.

make

and see RPMS/x86_64/.
