Seekdb Build

Build SeekDB

Build SeekDB binaries and/or installation packages for one or more target platforms.

Usage

/build-seekdb [platform] [action] [options]

platform (default: auto-detect current OS):

• mac — macOS arm64/x86_64
• linux — Linux x86_64
• android — Android arm64-v8a (cross-compile on macOS/Linux host)
• windows — Windows x86_64 (native PowerShell environment only)

action — what to do (default: compile release):

| Platform | Compile actions | Package actions | |----------|----------------|-----------------| | mac | release debug perf | tgz | | linux | release debug perf | rpm deb | | android| release debug | apk | | windows| release debug | installer |

• Compile actions build the seekdb binary + libseekdb_embed_c.
• Package actions build an installable artifact (implies a release compile first if needed).
• Multiple actions can be requested in one invocation, e.g. release tgz or debug rpm.

options:

• --init — Force re-initialize dependencies before building
• --jobs N — Parallel jobs (default: all CPU cores)
• --version V — Version string for package naming (e.g. 4.3.5, default: beta)
• --release R — Release/date string for package naming (e.g. 20260407, default: today's date)
• --with-jni — (Android only) Also build libseekdb_embed.so JNI library
• --install — (Android only) adb install the APK after building

Instructions

When the user runs /build-seekdb, follow these steps.

Step 1 — Parse arguments

• Extract platform, action(s), and options from $ARGUMENTS.
• If no platform given, detect via uname -s: Darwin → mac, Linux → linux.
• If no action given, default to release (compile only).
• Default version: beta. Default release: today's date as YYYYMMDD.
• Default jobs: detect with sysctl -n hw.ncpu (mac/android) or nproc (linux).
• Reject invalid combinations (e.g. deb on mac, tgz on linux, perf on android/windows)

and tell the user which package/compile types are supported for their platform.

---

Step 2 — Determine repo root

REPO_ROOT=$(pwd)

Use $REPO_ROOT for all subsequent commands. Do NOT hardcode any absolute path.

Key rule — package actions vs compile-only actions:

• Package actions (apk, rpm, deb, tgz, installer): call the dedicated packaging

script directly. These scripts already handle clean + init + make internally. Do NOT run a separate init step before them.

• Compile-only actions (release, debug, perf): no packaging script is involved.

Run the dep check below first, then call build.sh --make.

Dependency check (compile-only actions only)

dep_create.sh writes two marker files on successful init:

• deps/3rd/DONE — generic completion flag
• deps/3rd/ — MD5 of the platform-specific .deps file

Checking only DONE is insufficient. The MD5 marker must match the current .deps file for the target platform. A missing MD5 marker means:

• the .deps file was updated (new or changed packages), OR
• the last init was for a different platform (e.g. macOS deps present, but Android marker absent).

# 1. Determine the .deps file for the target platform
#    Android:          $REPO_ROOT/deps/init/oceanbase.android.arm64.deps
#    macOS arm64 ≥15:  $REPO_ROOT/deps/init/oceanbase.macos15.arm64.deps
#    macOS arm64 13-14:$REPO_ROOT/deps/init/oceanbase.macos13.arm64.deps
#    Linux el8 x86_64: $REPO_ROOT/deps/init/oceanbase.el8.x86_64.deps
#    Linux el9 x86_64: $REPO_ROOT/deps/init/oceanbase.el9.x86_64.deps
#
# 2. Compute its MD5
#    macOS: MD5=$(md5 -r  | cut -d' ' -f1)
#    Linux: MD5=$(md5sum   | cut -d' ' -f1)
#
# 3. Check the marker
DEPS_MARKER="$REPO_ROOT/deps/3rd/$MD5"

OS_TAG reference table:

| Target | OSTAG | |--------|--------| | Android cross-compile | android.arm64 | | macOS arm64, macOS ≥ 15 | macos15.arm64 | | macOS arm64, macOS 13–14 | macos13.arm64 | | macOS x8664, macOS ≥ 15 | macos15.x86_64 | | Linux x8664, RHEL/CentOS 8 | el8.x86_64 | | Linux x8664, RHEL/CentOS 9 | el9.x86_64 |

On macOS: detect version with sw_vers -productVersion; detect arch with sysctl -n hw.optional.arm64 (returns 1 for arm64, correct even under Rosetta).

Decision logic (compile-only):

| Condition | Action | |-----------|--------| | --init explicitly passed | Always run init: ./build.sh release [--android] --init | | $DEPS_MARKER missing | Auto-run init, print [build-seekdb] deps marker not found — running --init for ... | | $DEPS_MARKER exists | Skip init, print [build-seekdb] deps OK — skipping init. |

> dep_create.sh is idempotent — if the MD5 marker already matches it exits immediately.

---

Step 3 — Execute builds

Pick the matching platform reference and follow it end-to-end. Each reference covers compile modes, build directories, artifact paths, and the relevant packaging script.

| Target | Reference | |--------|-----------| | macOS (compile + tgz) | [references/build-macos.md](references/build-macos.md) | | Linux (compile + rpm/deb) | [references/build-linux.md](references/build-linux.md) | | Android (cross-compile + apk) | [references/build-android.md](references/build-android.md) | | Windows (native compile + installer) | [references/build-windows.md](references/build-windows.md) | | Python wheel (manylinux only) | [references/build-python-wheel.md](references/build-python-wheel.md) |

---

Step 4 — Report results

After each action:

• Print success or failure (exit code).
• Print artifact path(s) and file sizes (ls -lh).
• If init failed → abort, report error, do not proceed to make.
• If make failed after successful init → suggest re-running with --init (marker may be stale).
• If Android NDK missing → remind user to set ANDROID_NDK_HOME.
• If windows requested on non-Windows → show PowerShell instructions, do not attempt build.
