This is a guide to building Kazoo from source on a Debian 8 (Jessie) base installation. Other GNU/Linux distros should work similarly, though the dependencies may differ a bit. If you want to just install and use Kazoo (and not build it) try using the installation instructions. The rest of this guide assumes you want to run a development environment for Kazoo.
If your development is on macOS, here are extra steps for set up.
Erlang/OTP is required for both run time and build time. Usually the official Erlang package provided by distributions is not up-to-date, please follow this section to install it from source code or using other options.
- Kazoo version 4.3 requires Erlang version 19 specifically 19.3.x
- Kazoo version 5.x is currently targets Erlang version 21 (specifically 21.3)
- Kazoo master branch targets Erlang 21+ (specifically 21.3 but consult
make/erlang_version
to be sure).
We recommend to use a tool like kerl to manage Erlang/OTP installations. If you want to play around with multiple versions of Erlang while hacking on Kazoo, this is probably the best way. For compiling Erlang you need some dependencies, see Build time requirements
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kerl/kerl/master/kerl
chmod +x kerl
mv kerl /usr/bin
kerl list releases
kerl build 21.3 21.3 # this takes a while
kerl install 21.3 /usr/local/otp-21.3
. /usr/local/otp-19.3/activate
You will probably want to add the activate
command to your .bashrc
or similar to make sure the proper OTP version is running.
Most OS package managers provide pre-built binary packages. You can also download the latest stable releases from Erlang Solutions. Erlang Solutions provides pre-built binary packages for OS X, Windows, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, CentOS, Raspbian and other operating systems.

git clone https://github.com/2600Hz/kazoo.git
cd kazoo
make
You following command to build documentation site:
make docs
You can also run a local version of the docs with make docs-serve
which will start a local server so you can view how the docs are rendered.
If you have a custom theme, you can copy it to doc/mkdocs/theme
and build the docs again. When you serve the docs the theme should have been applied to the site.

Clone the Kazoo repo:
git clone https://github.com/2600Hz/kazoo.git
-
Build Kazoo:
cd kazoo make

Additional make targets
When developing, one can
cd
into any app directory (withinapplications/
orcore/
) and run:make
(make all
ormake clean
)make apis
to build document accessors, Crossbar API OpenAPI, JSON schemas and etc...make xref
to look for calls to undefined functions (uses Xref)make dialyze
to statically type-check the app (uses Dialyzer)make fmt
to format Erlang source codes to the standardmake fmt-views-all
to format JavaScript codes inside CouchDB view filesmake test
runs the app / sub-apps test suite, if any.- Note: make sure to
make clean all
after running your tests, as test BEAMs are generated inebin/
!
- Note: make sure to
- Consult
Makefile
for more Makefile targets
-
Running the tests
To run the full test suite it is advised to:
-
cd
into the root of the project -
make compile-test
to compile every app with theTEST
macro defined- This way apps can call code from other apps in a kind of
TEST
mode
- This way apps can call code from other apps in a kind of
-
make eunit
(instead ofmake test
) to run the test suite without recompiling each app -
make proper
to run the test suite, including property-based tests (uses PropEr)
-
-
Generate an Erlang release
make build-release
will generate a deployable release -
Generate an Erlang development release
make build-dev-release
will generate a development release with symlinking beams files and reload them when they re-compiled to ease development -
Start an Erlang development release
CouchDB2 and RabbitMQ server have to be up and running prior to start Kazoo. The Development Environment Dependency section describes how these components should be built or installed.
make release REL=<node name>
will start Kazoo dev release with an Erlang shell accessible.The node name will become the longname in distributed Erlang, therefore, it is very important to set up local domain or DNS to resolve FQDN. To verify long name resolution,
erl -name test
should be able to start an Erlang shell withnode@fqdn
as the prompt. It's not uncommon for a dev machine without DNS set up that can resulterl -name test
to crash, which has been seen on Mac.After the dev shell starts, we can verify Kazoo's epmd registration with the proper longname by this command under Kazoo Erlang shell expected to return a valid port instead of
noport
. `erlang-shell> erl_epmd:port_please("", "").
The SUP command (sup
) is found under core/sup/priv/sup
and should be copied or symlinked to /usr/bin/sup
(or somewhere in your $PATH
). It is a shell file that calls sup.escript
.
sudo ln -s core/sup/priv/sup /usr/bin/sup
Make sure that the path to Kazoo's installation directory is right (in /usr/bin/sup
). Otherwise you can change it by setting the KAZOO_ROOT
environment variable (not set by default). If one needs KAZOO_ROOT
, an alias should be created:
alias sup='KAZOO_ROOT=/opt/kazoo sup'
-
Auto-completion
make sup_completion
createssup.bash
: a Bash completion file for the SUP command- Copy or symlink this file to
/etc/bash_completion.d/sup.bash
- Copy or symlink this file to
Other dependencies include CouchDB and RabbitMQ. yum
or apt
install rabbitmq-server is sufficient. We recommend to clone the latest CouchDB 2 and follow the build instructions.
To run a cluster of CouchDB nodes, please yum
or apt
install haproxy.
To start out fresh, we recommend to run admin party with CouchDB that allows request to be made by anyone without user credential authentication. This is an example command to start 3 nodes cluster with haproxy automatically started and admin party enabled.
dev/run --with-admin-party-please -n 3 --with-haproxy
Once CouchDB, rabbitmq-server, and kazoo are all started. You should be able to verify their names registered with epmd with this command.
epmd -names
