Tonika Build and Run Instructions

Building Tonika

Tonika can be built on any platform supported by the Google Go Programming Language [http://golang.org], which currently includes Mac OS X, Linux and FreeBSD (32-bit and 64-bit in all cases). To build Tonika, proceed as follows:

(1) Download and install Google Go

(2) Download Tonika's sources. Using Mercurial, this done with the command:

  hg clone https://tonika.googlecode.com/hg/ tonika

(3) Set the environment variable TONIKAROOT to point to the root of Tonika's source distribution, e.g.

  setenv TONIKAROOT /Users/petar/tonika      (csh/tcsh)
  export TONIKAROOT /Users/petar/tonika      (sh/bash)

(4) Change your directory to the root of the Tonika's Go sources:

  cd tonika/src

(5) Compile everything:

  ./all.bash

(6) You are done! The Tonika executable is in:

  tonika/src/cmd/tonika/tonika

Running Tonika

Currently the best way to see how to run Tonika is to look at the script

  tonika/src/s0.bash

which runs Tonika for an example user whose home and other directories are in

  tonika/src/u0/...
