If you haven’t built Iguana before, first set up some environmental variables that the build system uses.
Okay so to build Iguana assuming you are in the main directory of the mercurial repo, execute the following commands:
cd Iguana
make -j4
If you have stale object files or stuff from a previous failed compilation you might want to try doing
make clean
This will clean up stuff from an old build.
You should see something like this, except you probably won’t unless you have a magical set of environmental variables set.
...
To run Iguana as a command line program you will need to change to the DBD directory, then type:
./iguana --run
...
This should start up Iguana on the default port. Open up the URL it shows at the bottom in a web browser.
...
You should now have a fully functional copy of Iguana running in your development sandbox.
If you want to delete all the files that the compilation process produces, use “make clean” in the Iguana directory. This a standard technique with make to remove files that are produced by the compilation.
