Hi All,

I hope you can help with something I have noticed.

Current build is below and I am looking to use some scripting with v8 (javascript is required here), but I am hitting a whole host of issues with just trying to get mod_v8 installed. The rest of the software I have tried is perfect and has been for a few days.

Ubuntu 20.04 server – latest and upto date.
FreeSWITCH build 1.10.6

Here is my debug and steps taken, but I am at a loss currently so any help would be appreciated here.

Am I missing something simple here?

Many Thanks,

John.



From the documentation: https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/mod_v8

"
Build/Install
mod_v8 is built and installed by default as of revision b76233266931ca0b53f3bcc589277b972d714216.

If for some reason it's not, do the following:

Uncomment languages/mod_v8 in modules.conf in your src directory (make it always build and install mod_v8)
Run 'make mod_v8-install' to make and install just the v8 module
Edit conf/autoload_configs/modules.conf.xml in your FreeSWITCH™ install directory to load mod_v8
In fs_cli, run "load mod_v8"
"

If you uncomment it from the autoload_configs/modules.conf.xml and reloadxml then you won't get any errors, but as the module doesn't exist, if you try to do a javascript command from fs_cli it will give you an error:

"-ERR javascript Command not found!"

Running through the 'make mod_v8-install' throws some errors about:
"
making install mod_v8
make[2]: Entering directory '/usr/src/freeswitch-1.10.6.-release/src/mod/languages/mod_v8'

compilation terminated.
"

Trying to recompile with: "sudo ./configure -C" throws the below errors:

"
checking for v8-6.1_static >= 6.1.298... checking for v8fs_static >= 6.1.298... checking for v8 >= 6.1.298... configure: error: You need to either install libv8-6.1-dev (>= 6.1.298), libv8fs-dev (>= 6.1.298) or disable mod_v8 in modules.conf

On Ubunutu and Debian this is libv8-dev and is installed.

We don't have libv8 for Ubuntu.
You should try building libv8 packages from here: https://github.com/freeswitch/libv8-packaging

git clone https://github.com/freeswitch/libv8-packaging


apt-get install cdbs git dos2unix lsb-release build-essential curl wget python devscripts libglib2.0-dev pkg-config
apt-get install libtinfo5


cd libv8-packaging/linux

make build DEBUILD=debuild

Thanks Andrey,

I tried to make it work but ran into the same issues.

So I changed to Debian buster (as mentioned in the documentation) and it works without issue now.

Thank you for the quick response though.

Speak soon,

John.
