Self-extracting releases

-

Erlang.mk allows you to package Relx releases as -self-extracting archives. These archives contain all the -files in the release and come in the form of a script that -will extract and run the release automatically.

-

This allows you to package the release as a single file -that can then be executed.

-

This feature is currently experimental. Feedback is much -appreciated.

-
-

Generating the self-extracting archive

-
-

To generate a self-extracting release, all you need to do -is pass the SFX=1 variable to Make when you build the -release:

-
-
-
$ make SFX=1
-

This will create a self-extracting archive in -$RELX_OUTPUT_DIR/<name>.run. For example if the release -is named hello_world and $RELX_OUTPUT_DIR is the default, -the file will be located at _rel/hello_world.run.

-
-
-
-

Running the release

-
-

Simply execute the script to get started:

-
-
-
$ ./_rel/hello_world.run
-Exec: /tmp/tmp.3eeEq7E1ta/erts-8.1/bin/erlexec ...
-Root: /tmp/tmp.3eeEq7E1ta
-/tmp/tmp.3eeEq7E1ta
-Erlang/OTP 19 [erts-8.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:4:4] ...
-
-Eshell V8.1  (abort with ^G)
-(hello_world@localhost)1>
-

As you can see the archive is extracted to a temporary -directory before the release can be started.

-

The self-extracting script currently only supports starting -the release in console mode.
