Garage is a standard Rust project. First, you need `rust` and `cargo`. For instance on Debian:
```bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y rustc cargo
```
You can also use [Rustup](https://rustup.rs/) to setup a Rust toolchain easily.
In addition, you will need a full C toolchain. On Debian-based distributions, it can be installed as follows:
```bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential
```
## Using source from the Gitea repository (recommended)
The primary location for Garage's source code is the
[Gitea repository](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage).
Clone the repository and build Garage with the following commands:
```bash
git clone https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage.git
cd garage
cargo build
```
Be careful, as this will make a debug build of Garage, which will be extremely slow!
To make a release build, invoke `cargo build --release` (this takes much longer).
The binaries built this way are found in `target/{debug,release}/garage`.
## Using source from `crates.io`
Garage's source code is published on `crates.io`, Rust's official package repository.
This means you can simply ask `cargo` to download and build this source code for you:
```bash
cargo install garage
```
That's all, `garage` should be in `$HOME/.cargo/bin`.
You can add this folder to your `$PATH` or copy the binary somewhere else on your system.
For instance:
```bash
sudo cp $HOME/.cargo/bin/garage /usr/local/bin/garage
```
## Selecting features to activate in your build
Garage supports a number of compilation options in the form of Cargo features,
which can be used to provide builds adapted to your system and your use case.
The following features are available:
| Feature | Enabled | Description |
| ------- | ------- | ----------- |
| `bundled-libs` | BY DEFAULT | Use bundled version of sqlite3, zstd, lmdb and libsodium |
| `system-libs` | optional | Use system version of sqlite3, zstd, lmdb and libsodium if available (exclusive with `bundled-libs`, build using `cargo build --no-default-features --features system-libs`) |
| `k2v` | optional | Enable the experimental K2V API (if used, all nodes on your Garage cluster must have it enabled as well) |
| `kubernetes-discovery` | optional | Enable automatic registration and discovery of cluster nodes through the Kubernetes API |
| `metrics` | BY DEFAULT | Enable collection of metrics in Prometheus format on the admin API |
| `telemetry-otlp` | optional | Enable collection of execution traces using OpenTelemetry |
| `sled` | BY DEFAULT | Enable using Sled to store Garage's metadata |
| `lmdb` | optional | Enable using LMDB to store Garage's metadata |
| `sqlite` | optional | Enable using Sqlite3 to store Garage's metadata |
