Stripped-Erlang

Stripped-Erlang copied to clipboard

Bash script for creating a small Erlang release.

Example:

wget http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R15B03-1.tar.gz ./minimal_erlang.sh -s -e otp_src_R15B03-1.tar.gz

Notes: The script will unpack the Erlang/OTP tarball and build a Erlang release from source. You may want to have checked that the build configuration step works before running the script. See chapter 3.5 in http://www.erlang.org/doc/installation_guide/INSTALL.html

To speed things up: export MAKEFLAGS=-jX where X is number of logical cores + 2.

You can also manually remove unneeded OTP apps in the lib folder in the created release directory.
