About OpenPower

xet7, as maintainer of Wekan, got access to ppc64le at at University of Campinas - Unicamp Minicloud. Unicamp is member of OpenPOWER Foundation. At Minicloud OpenStack, xet7 created Ubuntu 20.10 VM, and at 2020-12-22 ported Wekan to ppc64le very similarly like previously for s390x.

Installing MongoDB on OpenPower Ubuntu 20.04 ppc64le

This Snap package https://snapcraft.io/juju-db , created by Canonical, has MongoDB for various CPU architectures . It is internal package for Canonical's Juju service https://jaas.ai . Snap repo at https://github.com/juju/juju-db-snap and copy at https://github.com/wekan/mongodb-snap

ssh yourserver

sudo apt install snapd nano

sudo reboot

sudo snap install juju-db

sudo snap refresh juju-db --channel=5.3/stable

sudo snap enable juju-db

sudo snap start juju-db

nano .bashrc

There add path to commands mongo, mongodump, mongorestore etc

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/snap/juju-db/138/usr/lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu
export PATH="$PATH:/snap/juju-db/138/bin"

Save and exit: Ctrl-o Enter Ctrl-x

Now MongoDB is at localhost port 27017. You connect to CLI with command:

  2. scp wekan-VERSION.zip bundle to ppc64le server, and unzip it
  3. Clone and build Fibers, copy fibers to bundle, and zip bundle.
git clone https://github.com/laverdet/node-fibers
cd node-fibers
npm install
node build.js
cd ..
cp -pR /home/ubuntu/node-fibers/bin/linux-ppc64-72-glibc bundle/programs/server/node_modules/fibers/bin/

OLD INFO: About MongoDB for OpenPower

Working:

  • Official MongoDB binaries for OpenPower are available as part of MongoDB Enterprise subscription.

Other options:

  • There is no Community version of MongoDB binaries for OpenPower available, like there is for other CPUs like x64/arm64/s390x.
  • xet7 did not yet get MongoDB successfully built from source for OpenPower.
  • There are some unofficial MongoDB Docker images by random people, but they could be old versions of MongoDB, and there is no guarantee they don't have any malicious code.
  • If sometime in the future some working database binaries become available, link to them will be added here.
  • If sometime in the future support for other databases is added to Wekan, info about it could be added here, although adding support for other databases could be a lot of work.
