Building Redis

Redis is just a single binary, but if you want to install it you can use
|
||||
the "make install" target that will copy the binary to /usr/local/bin

by default. You can also use "make PREFIX=/some/other/directory install"

You can run a 32 bit Redis binary using:

% make 32bit

NOTE: if after building Redis with a 32 bit target you need to rebuild it
|

with a 64 bit target you need to perform a "make clean" in the root

directory of the Redis distribution.

Allocator
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
By default Redis compiles and links against jemalloc under Linux, since
|
||||
glibc malloc() has memory fragmentation problems.
|
||||
|
||||
To force a libc malloc() build use:
|
||||
|
||||
make FORCE_LIBC_MALLOC=yes
|
||||
|
||||
In all the other non Linux systems the libc malloc() is used by default.
|
||||
|
||||
On Mac OS X you can force a jemalloc based build using the following:
|
||||
|
||||
make USE_JEMALLOC=yes
|
||||
|
||||
Verbose build
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
Redis will build with a user friendly colorized output by default.
|

If you want to see a more verbose output use the following:

make V=1
