Make / install timestore?

Submitted by Schism on Mon, 31/03/2014 - 18:14

After setting up my dev Pi I decided to clean up the homedir of my 'live' Pi. In the process I deleted the 'timestore' directory, so now timestore doesn't work.

I wouldn't mind too much except it's not possible to extract the feeds without a working timestore on the Pi... doh!

I've checked out timestore from https://github.com/mikestir/timestore but I can't follow the instructions to install it.

$ make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Does anyone know what hoops I need to jump through to get this set up?

Are you just running make from the timestore dir or have you tried ./configure before that ? although the readme clearly says "just" run make that was last edited a year ago, but this Install file was added 7 months ago at the same time as the makefile was deleted and this states you should run ./configure first, Make needs a makefile to work if ./configure doesn't create one the original makefile details are there in the history, you could try reinstating them and running make.

I'm sure you have, but have you tried sudo make ?

There is also an install script on Trystans fork that may help you and a timestore wiki

Aha, ok....

./configure gets me

configure: error: Package requirements (libmicrohttpd) were not met:

No package 'libmicrohttpd' found

the libmicrohttpd10 debian package is installed.

Beginning to think it would be simpler to download the image again, temporarily pull the contents of my live Pi HDD and re-image it to grab the folder, then reinstate!

that maybe why there was a copy of libmicrohttpd on the timestore github https://github.com/mikestir/timestore/blob/840f7134e1eaf37235f9db9b111ce362fd0dda9d/libmicrohttpd-0.9.24.tar.gz

Cheers, will have another go this evening.

I think I won't use timestore. Perhaps you won't and you just want to get your data back.

Anyway, in case you're interested, here's a trace of my attempts, and a note on what I disliked in the installation procedure.

Did you try upstream latest ? Might solve your problem.

Apparently, the developer wanted to make a package but didn't find the time/energy.
