Before you Compile ntopng
-------------------------

If you want to use binary packages instead of compiling ntopng from source you can
download them for various platforms at http://packages.ntop.org/

Prerequisites for Compilation
-----------------------------

Prerequisites
- glib2
- GNU autotools/libtool
- libmaxminddb
- libpcap-dev and PF_RING (optional but recommended)
- redis (redis server) 2.2 or newer
- wget (for 'make geoip')
- libxml2-dev
- libglib2.0-dev
- libsqlite3-dev
- libcurl-dev
- libmysqlclient-dev
- uglify-es

On Ubuntu/Debian
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

apt-get install build-essential git bison flex libxml2-dev libpcap-dev libtool libtool-bin rrdtool librrd-dev autoconf pkg-config automake autogen redis-server wget libsqlite3-dev libhiredis-dev libmaxminddb-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libpango1.0-dev libcairo2-dev libnetfilter-queue-dev zlib1g-dev libssl-dev libcap-dev libnetfilter-conntrack-dev libreadline-dev libjson-c-dev libldap2-dev rename libsnmp-dev libexpat1-dev libsnmp-dev libmaxminddb-dev libradcli-dev libjson-c-dev

If you plan to manipulate javascript you also need to do
- apt-get install npm 
- npm install -g uglify-es
- npm install -g clean-css-cli

If you plan to build packages you should also install:

apt-get install debhelper dpkg-sig dkms

On Ubuntu16/18
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You also need to do "apt-get install libtool-bin"
You can decide to use MariaDB (instead of MySQL) do "apt-get install libmariadb-client-lgpl-dev" instead.

On Ubuntu20
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You also need to do "apt-get install libmariadbclient-dev libzmq3-dev"

On Debian 9/10
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You need to do add the `contrib` component to /etc/apt/sources.list entries, then

apt-get install libpng-dev libzmq5-dev default-libmysqlclient-dev

On Other Debian
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev libzmq3-dev

On Raspbian 10
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

apt-get install libmariadb-dev libzmq3-dev

On CentOS Stream (8)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

dnf install http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-8.rpm
dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools
dnf config-manager --set-enabled remi
dnf group install "Development Tools"
dnf clean all
dnf update
dnf install openldap-devel libpcap-devel openssl-devel libcurl-devel libmaxminddb-devel sqlite-devel mysql-devel radcli-devel librdkafka-devel libcap-devel zeromq-devel rrdtool-devel json-c-devel expect hiredis-devel readline-devel expat-devel npm
npm install -g uglify-es

On CentOS/Rocky 8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

dnf group install "Development Tools"
dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
Set "enabled=1" in file /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-PowerTools.repo [CentOS]
Set "enabled=1" in file /etc/yum.repos.d/Rocky-PowerTools.repo  [Rocky]
yum install http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-8.rpm
yum config-manager --set-enabled remi
yum clean all
yum update
yum install openldap-devel libpcap-devel openssl-devel libcurl-devel libmaxminddb-devel sqlite-devel mysql-devel radcli-devel librdkafka-devel libcap-devel zeromq-devel rrdtool-devel json-c-devel expect expat-devel npm
npm install -g uglify-es

Then list the streams which provide Redis (dnf module list redis) and install it. For example, to install it from stream 5 run: sudo dnf module install redis:5

yum install hiredis-devel

On Fedora 30/31/32
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

dnf install libtool m4
dnf install autoconf automake
dnf group install "Development Tools"
dnf install libpcap-devel openssl-devel libcurl-devel libmaxminddb-devel sqlite-devel mariadb-devel radcli-devel librdkafka-devel libcap-devel zeromq-devel rrdtool-devel json-c-devel expect readline-devel
dnf install redis

On (Older) Fedora/CentOS 6-7
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

yum groupinstall "Development tools"
yum install git autoconf automake autogen bison flex libpcap-devel libmaxminddb-devel hiredis-devel redis glib2-devel libxml2-devel sqlite-devel gcc-c++ libtool wget libcurl-devel pango-devel cairo-devel libpng-devel mysql-devel libnetfilter_queue-devel zlib-devel which libcap-devel readline-devel zeromq-devel json-c-devel 

On MacOS
~~~~~~~~

Using Brew (http://brew.sh):

brew install redis hiredis autoconf automake libtool rrdtool wget pkg-config git mysql json-c

Using MacPorts:

sudo port install redis hiredis autoconf automake libtool rrdtool wget pkgconfig git openssl zlib json-c libmaxminddb zmq libgcrypt

On FreeBSD
~~~~~~~~~~

sudo pkg install gcc git autoconf automake libtool pkgconf gmake sudo libmaxminddb libsodium mysql56-client rrdtool lua53 zip json-c libzmq4 sqlite3 libgcrypt librdkafka bison flex libpcap rename cmake redis

On Cubro EXA8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

On OpenSuse
~~~~~~~~~~~

zypper install flex bison libpcap-devel libmaxminddb-devel libsqlite3-0-devel sqlite3-devel libmysqlclient-devel czmq-devel

On Windows
~~~~~~~~~~

You can download the Redis server from
https://github.com/rgl/redis/downloads

Additional Notes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- you can use ZMQ 4.x in addition to 3.x (but not 2.x)
- make sure nobody owns /var/lib/ntopng
- make sure to have uglify-es to minify JavaScript code, just type, in the command line, `npm install -g uglify-es` to install it (`./autogen.sh && ./configure` is required after installing uglify-es, before running `make minify`)
- make sure to have clean-css-cli to minify and optimize the CSS code, just type, in the command line, `npm install -g clean-css-cli`

Source Code Compilation
-----------------------

Once you have installed all the prerequisites do

cd <compilation directory>
git clone https://github.com/ntop/nDPI.git
cd nDPI; ./autogen.sh; ./configure; make; cd ..
git clone https://github.com/ntop/ntopng.git
cd ntopng
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
