# Linux
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu LTS 12.04 64-bit is the recommended platform.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
* OS with 64-bit or 32-bit architecture
|
|
* C++ toolchain
|
|
* [Git](http://git-scm.com/)
|
|
* [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/download/) v0.10.x
|
|
* [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) v1.4.x (bundled with Node.js)
|
|
* `npm -v` to check the version.
|
|
* `npm config set python /usr/bin/python2 -g` to ensure that gyp uses python2.
|
|
* You might need to run this command as `sudo`, depending on how you have set up [npm](https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installing-Node.js-via-package-manager#ubuntu-mint-elementary-os).
|
|
* development headers for [GNOME Keyring](https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeKeyring)
|
|
|
|
### Ubuntu / Debian
|
|
|
|
* `sudo apt-get install build-essential git libgnome-keyring-dev fakeroot`
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Fedora / CentOS / RHEL
|
|
|
|
* `sudo yum --assumeyes install make gcc gcc-c++ glibc-devel git-core libgnome-keyring-devel rpmdevtools`
|
|
* Instructions for [Node.js](https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installing-Node.js-via-package-manager#fedora).
|
|
|
|
### Arch
|
|
|
|
* `sudo pacman -S gconf base-devel git nodejs libgnome-keyring python2`
|
|
* `export PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2` before building Atom.
|
|
|
|
### Slackware
|
|
|
|
* `sbopkg -k -i node -i atom`
|
|
|
|
### openSUSE
|
|
|
|
* `sudo zypper install nodejs make gcc gcc-c++ glibc-devel git-core libgnome-keyring-devel rpmdevtools`
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
|
|
If you have problems with permissions don't forget to prefix with `sudo`
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the Nylas Mail repository:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone https://github.com/nylas/edgehill
|
|
cd edgehill
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Checkout the latest Nylas Mail release:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git fetch -p
|
|
git checkout $(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Build Nylas Mail:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
script/build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will create the Nylas Mail application at `$TMPDIR/nylas-build/Nylas`.
|
|
|
|
4. Install the `edgehill` and `apm` commands to `/usr/local/bin` by executing:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo script/grunt install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To use the newly installed Nylas Mail, quit and restart all running Nylas Mail instances.
|
|
|
|
5. *Optionally*, you may generate distributable packages of Nylas Mail at `$TMPDIR/nylas-build`. Currenty, `.deb` and `.rpm` package types are supported. To create a `.deb` package run:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
script/grunt mkdeb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To create an `.rpm` package run
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
script/grunt mkrpm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Advanced Options
|
|
|
|
### Custom install directory
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo script/grunt install --install-dir /install/edgehill/here
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Custom build directory
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
script/build --build-dir /build/edgehill/here
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### TypeError: Unable to watch path
|
|
|
|
If you get following error with a big traceback right after Nylas Mail starts:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
TypeError: Unable to watch path
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
you have to increase number of watched files by inotify. For testing if
|
|
this is the reason for this error you can issue
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches=32768
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and restart Nylas Mail. If Nylas Mail now works fine, you can make this setting permanent:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
echo 32768 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### /usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory
|
|
|
|
If you get this notice when attempting to `script/build`, you either do not
|
|
have Node.js installed, or node isn't identified as Node.js on your machine.
|
|
If it's the latter, entering `sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node` into
|
|
your terminal may fix the issue.
|
|
|
|
#### You can also use Alternatives
|
|
|
|
On some variants (mostly Debian based distros) it's preferable for you to use
|
|
Alternatives so that changes to the binary paths can be fixed or altered easily:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/node node /usr/bin/nodejs 1 --slave /usr/bin/js js /usr/bin/nodejs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'script_main'
|
|
|
|
If you get following error with a big traceback while building Nylas Mail:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sys.exit(gyp.script_main()) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'script_main' gyp ERR!
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
you need to uninstall the system version of gyp.
|
|
|
|
On Fedora you would do the following:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo yum remove gyp
|
|
```
|
