Gamma README
See end of file for copying conditions
* Introduction
This file contains brief information about configuring, testing
and running Gamma. It is provided as a brief reference only.
More specifically, is *not* intended as a replacement for the
documentation. The complete documentation for Gamma is available
in the doc/ subdirectory. To read it without installing the package
run `info -f doc/gamma.info'. After the package is installed
the documentation can be accessed running `info gamma'.
An online copy of the documentation in various formats is available
at http://gamma.man.gnu.org.ua.
* Overview
Gamma is a set of assorted modules for Guile. It includes:
** (gamma sql)
This module provides interfaces for two SQL DBMS: MySQL and PostgreSQL.
** (gamma expat)
Interfaces to Expat: a library for parsing XML documents.
** (gamma syslog)
Interfaces to syslog(3).
* Uses
Gamma is the main working horse for xmltools[1], a parser engine
powering Ellinika[2] and Runasimi[3] web projects.
For more info on these, see:
[1] http://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/projects/xmltools/
[2] http://ellinika.gnu.org.ua
[3] http://www.runasimi.org
* Prerequisites
The principal prerequisite is Guile 2.2 or later. Individual modules
may require specific libraries.
* Installation
For generic instructions on how to use configure, see the INSTALL file
in this directory. The following is a list of Gamma-specific options:
** --disable-expat
Disables building of the expat module
** --disable-sql
Disables building of the sql module
** --disable-syslog
Disables building of the syslog module
** --without-mysql
Configure to work without MySQL
** --without-postgres
Configure to work without Postgres
** --with-guiledir=DIR
Specify the directory where to install guile modules.
The algorithm for determining where to install Guile modules is:
1. If --with-guiledir=DIR is specified, use DIR
2. Otherwise, obtain the site-wide Guile modules directory by
running `guile-config info pkgdatadir' and install the files
there *if* this directory lies inside the current install prefix
or --with-guiledir (without argument) is given.
3. Otherwise use $(datadir)/guile/site
** --with-include-path=PATH
Specify additional directories where to look for C include files. PATH is
a list of directory names separated by colons. Running
./configure --with-include-path=/usr/mysql/include:/usr/pgsql/include
is equivalent to running
./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/mysql/include -I/usr/pgsql/include"
** --with-lib-path=PATH
Specify additional directories where to look for libraries. PATH is a list of
directory names separated by colons. Running
./configure --with-lib-path=/usr/mysql/lib:/usr/pgsql/lib
is equivalent to running
./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/mysql/lib -L/usr/pgsql/lib"
