Installing avronode on Centos

1. Install boost and cmake using yum
2. Install avro-cpp from source using instructions from here.

3. mkdir /usr/local/include/avrocpp
   mkdir /usr/local/include/avrocpp/lib
   ln -s /usr/local/lib/libavrocpp.so /usr/local/include/avrocpp/lib/libavrocpp.so
   

4. Run 'npm install avronode'
5. Run 'npm install node-gyp'
6. binding.gyp will need some path changes and should look like this:

   
   {
     "targets": [
     {
       "target_name": "avro",
       "type": "loadable_module",
       "product_extension": "node",
       'include_dirs': ['/usr/local/include', "./"],
       'cflags_cc!': ['-fno-rtti', '-fno-exceptions'],
       'cflags_cc+': ['-frtti', '-fexceptions'],
       'link_settings': {
         'ldflags': ['-L/usr/local/lib'],
         'libraries': ['/usr/local/lib/libavrocpp.so']
       },
       "sources": [ "./src/node_avro.cc","./src/DynamicBuffer.cc", "./src/BufferedInputStream.cc", "./src/translate.cc", "./src/helpers.cc"]
     }
     ]
   }
   

7. Run 'node-gyp configure build'
8. Add 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH' to ./bash_profile
