ejabberd - Comments for "Compiling a module for dummies" https://www.ejabberd.im/node/18290 en Maybe the Debian system https://www.ejabberd.im/node/18290#comment-63928 <p>Maybe the Debian system provides some semi-automated way, but I'll tell you the manual long way:<br /> 1. Download the source code of the ejabberd version you are using. From <noindex><a href="https://packages.debian.org/sid/ejabberd" title="https://packages.debian.org/sid/ejabberd" rel="nofollow" >https://packages.debian.org/sid/ejabberd</a></noindex> or from github, or from source package.<br /> 2. Make sure you have erlang and related packages installed: apt-get install erlang<br /> 3. Compile ejabberd. This is to make sure ejabberd itself compiles. More or less: ./configure; make<br /> 4. Modify mod_vcard.erl<br /> 5. Compile again: make<br /> 6. Copy mod_vcard.beam to the place where Debian puts ejabberd binaries.</p> <p>The first time it will take you some hours. The second time minutes, and you can customize anything you want.</p> Wed, 30 Apr 2014 14:22:26 +0000 mfoss comment 63928 at https://www.ejabberd.im
