How to install bee:
make install
This will install bee to PREFIX=/usr
Change installation prefix:
make PREFIX=/usr/local install
Be sure to provide installation prefixes during
make and make install if you want to first build and
later install bee
(e.g. make PREFIX=/usr/local && make PREFIX=/usr/local install)
Change destination directory for temporary installation
and later packaging:
make DESTDIR=/path/to/destdir PREFIX=/usr/local install
All variables available to change installation directories:
PREFIX = /usr
EPREFIX = ${PREFIX}
SBINDIR = ${EPREFIX}/sbin
BINDIR = ${EPREFIX}/bin
LIBDIR = ${EPREFIX}/lib
LIBEXECDIR = ${EPREFIX}/libexec
DATADIR = ${PREFIX}/share
MANDIR = ${DATADIR}/man
SYSCONFDIR = ${PREFIX}/etc
DESTDIR =
Cleanup build: e.g. after building with wrong prefixes
make clean
Rebuild and install with new prefix in destdir:
make clean install PREFIX=/usr/local DESTDIR=/tmp/destdir
Install latest bee with bee (requires git to be installed):
bee init $(bee download git://github.com/bee/bee.git) \
--execute \
--prefix=/usr/local
bee update bee
