## Building Node.js |
|||
|
|||
Depending on what platform or features you require the build process may |
|||
differ slightly. After you've successfully built a binary, running the |
|||
test suite to validate that the binary works as intended is a good next step. |
|||
|
|||
If you consistently can reproduce a test failure, search for it in the |
|||
[Node.js issue tracker](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues) or |
|||
file a new issue. |
|||
|
|||
|
|||
### Unix / Macintosh |
|||
|
|||
Prerequisites: |
|||
|
|||
* `gcc` and `g++` 4.8 or newer, or |
|||
* `clang` and `clang++` 3.4 or newer |
|||
* Python 2.6 or 2.7 |
|||
* GNU Make 3.81 or newer |
|||
* libexecinfo (FreeBSD and OpenBSD only) |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ ./configure |
|||
$ make |
|||
$ [sudo] make install |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
If your Python binary is in a non-standard location or has a |
|||
non-standard name, run the following instead: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ export PYTHON=/path/to/python |
|||
$ $PYTHON ./configure |
|||
$ make |
|||
$ [sudo] make install |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
To run the tests: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ make test |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
To build the documentation: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ make doc |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
To read the documentation: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ man doc/node.1 |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
To test if Node.js was built correctly: |
|||
|
|||
``` |
|||
$ node -e "console.log('Hello from Node.js ' + process.version)" |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
|
|||
### Windows |
|||
|
|||
Prerequisites: |
|||
|
|||
* [Python 2.6 or 2.7](https://www.python.org/downloads/) |
|||
* Visual Studio 2013 / 2015, all editions including the Community edition, or |
|||
* Visual Studio Express 2013 / 2015 for Desktop |
|||
* Basic Unix tools required for some tests, |
|||
[Git for Windows](http://git-scm.com/download/win) includes Git Bash |
|||
and tools which can be included in the global `PATH`. |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
> vcbuild nosign |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
To run the tests: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
> vcbuild test |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
To test if Node.js was built correctly: |
|||
|
|||
``` |
|||
$ node -e "console.log('Hello from Node.js ' + process.version)" |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
### Android / Android based devices, aka. Firefox OS |
|||
|
|||
Be sure you have downloaded and extracted [Android NDK] |
|||
(https://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html) |
|||
before in a folder. Then run: |
|||
|
|||
``` |
|||
$ ./android-configure /path/to/your/android-ndk |
|||
$ make |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
|
|||
### `Intl` (ECMA-402) support: |
|||
|
|||
[Intl](https://github.com/nodejs/node/wiki/Intl) support is not |
|||
enabled by default. |
|||
|
|||
|
|||
#### "small" (English only) support |
|||
|
|||
This option will build with "small" (English only) support, but |
|||
the full `Intl` (ECMA-402) APIs. With `--download=all` it will |
|||
download the ICU library as needed. |
|||
|
|||
##### Unix / Macintosh: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ ./configure --with-intl=small-icu --download=all |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
##### Windows: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
> vcbuild small-icu download-all |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
The `small-icu` mode builds with English-only data. You can add full |
|||
data at runtime. |
|||
|
|||
*Note:* more docs are on |
|||
[the node wiki](https://github.com/nodejs/node/wiki/Intl). |
|||
|
|||
#### Build with full ICU support (all locales supported by ICU): |
|||
|
|||
With the `--download=all`, this may download ICU if you don't have an |
|||
ICU in `deps/icu`. |
|||
|
|||
##### Unix / Macintosh: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ ./configure --with-intl=full-icu --download=all |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
##### Windows: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
> vcbuild full-icu download-all |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
#### Building without Intl support |
|||
|
|||
The `Intl` object will not be available. This is the default at |
|||
present, so this option is not normally needed. |
|||
|
|||
##### Unix / Macintosh: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ ./configure --with-intl=none |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
##### Windows: |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
> vcbuild intl-none |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
#### Use existing installed ICU (Unix / Macintosh only): |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
$ pkg-config --modversion icu-i18n && ./configure --with-intl=system-icu |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
If you are cross compiling, your `pkg-config` must be able to supply a path |
|||
that works for both your host and target environments. |
|||
|
|||
#### Build with a specific ICU: |
|||
|
|||
You can find other ICU releases at |
|||
[the ICU homepage](http://icu-project.org/download). |
|||
Download the file named something like `icu4c-**##.#**-src.tgz` (or |
|||
`.zip`). |
|||
|
|||
##### Unix / Macintosh |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
# from an already-unpacked ICU: |
|||
$ ./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu |
|||
|
|||
# from a local ICU tarball |
|||
$ ./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu.tgz |
|||
|
|||
# from a tarball URL |
|||
$ ./configure --with-intl=full-icu --with-icu-source=http://url/to/icu.tgz |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
##### Windows |
|||
|
|||
First unpack latest ICU to `deps/icu` |
|||
[icu4c-**##.#**-src.tgz](http://icu-project.org/download) (or `.zip`) |
|||
as `deps/icu` (You'll have: `deps/icu/source/...`) |
|||
|
|||
```text |
|||
> vcbuild full-icu |
|||
``` |
|||
|
|||
## Building Node.js with FIPS-compliant OpenSSL |
|||
|
|||
NOTE: Windows is not yet supported |
|||
|
|||
It is possible to build Node.js with |
|||
[OpenSSL FIPS module](https://www.openssl.org/docs/fips/fipsnotes.html). |
|||
|
|||
**Note**: building in this way does **not** allow you to claim that the |
|||
runtime is FIPS 140-2 validated. Instead you can indicate that the runtime |
|||
uses a validated module. See the [security policy](http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140sp/140sp1747.pdf) |
|||
page 60 for more details. In addition, the validation for the underlying module |
|||
is only valid if it is deployed in accordance with its [security policy](http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140sp/140sp1747.pdf). |
|||
If you need FIPS validated cryptography it is recommended that you read both |
|||
the [security policy](http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140sp/140sp1747.pdf) |
|||
and [user guide](https://openssl.org/docs/fips/UserGuide-2.0.pdf). |
|||
|
|||
### Instructions |
|||
|
|||
1. Obtain a copy of openssl-fips-x.x.x.tar.gz. |
|||
To comply with the security policy you must ensure the path |
|||
through which you get the file complies with the requirements |
|||
for a "secure installation" as described in section 6.6 in |
|||
the [user guide](https://openssl.org/docs/fips/UserGuide-2.0.pdf). |
|||
For evaluation/experimentation you can simply download and verify |
|||
`openssl-fips-x.x.x.tar.gz` from https://www.openssl.org/source/ |
|||
2. Extract source to `openssl-fips` folder and `cd openssl-fips` |
|||
3. `./config` |
|||
4. `make` |
|||
5. `make install` |
|||
(NOTE: to comply with the security policy you must use the exact |
|||
commands in steps 3-5 without any additional options as per |
|||
Appendix A in the [security policy](http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140sp/140sp1747.pdf). |
|||
The only exception is that `./config no-asm` can be |
|||
used in place of `./config`, and the FIPSDIR environment variable |
|||
may be used to specify a non-standard install folder for the |
|||
validated module, as per User Guide sections 4.2.1, 4.2.2, and 4.2.3. |
|||
6. Get into Node.js checkout folder |
|||
7. `./configure --openssl-fips=/path/to/openssl-fips/installdir` |
|||
For example on ubuntu 12 the installation directory was |
|||
/usr/local/ssl/fips-2.0 |
|||
8. Build Node.js with `make -j` |
|||
9. Verify with `node -p "process.versions.openssl"` (`1.0.2a-fips`) |
