WikiDevi.Wi-Cat.RU:DD-WRT/Noob-Friendly Customized install.sh for compiling from source
I have heavily modified the original install.sh so that it is more useful and flexible. This script is not 100% complete but it is functional and will simplify the initial process of compiling from source. Because it is still in development, I would recommend that you first follow the steps here Compiling DD-WRT Sources to lay out the necessary directory structure and required files. You don't have to use install.sh, instead you can use this script to compile the distribution you want. Before copying my script please read and understand its purpose and limitations.
<<WARNING>> This is still under development. Some features do not work as expected. <<WARNING>>
What this script will allow you to do:
- Compile a single distribution, eg. builddwrt mini
- Compile a combination of distributions, eg. builddwrt micro mini
- Create your build environment from scratch, eg. builddwrt -nd
- Download and update the source using subversion, eg. builddwrt -s
When you use the -d option, the script will automatically generate the correct filename based on the current date, then it will use wget to grab the file. If this attempt fails, the script will automatically try to download the previous day's snapshot. It will attempt to grab only the first snapshot it finds from the last 7 days. If it cannot find a snapshot by this method then you are asked to supply the date of the snapshot you want to grab.
You can name this script whatever you like and the help menu will reflect this so it appears personalized. It can also be placed most anywhere in your local path, but it's best placed directly in your home directory (~). Don't forget to issue chmod x to make this script executable.
You can combine some of the options, for example, builddwrt -ndp2 mini normal voip. This will create the directory structure for your build environment, download the latest snapshot, pause the output for 2 seconds between stages (in case you're watching), then build the image files for mini, normal and voip distributions. If you specify "all", this will expand to "micro mini normal voip openvpn".
What this script does NOT do:
This script only changes the interface for compiling your source, that is, you can consider this as install.sh on steroids. I did not make any attempts to change the actual scripts which perform the compilation, for example, install_mini.sh. Assuming we have the correct directory structure (as per the wiki), if install.sh does not properly compile your source then neither will my script.
Unless I have made a terrible mistake, if the original install.sh works for you then this script will do the same. You just have better control over the initial process.
The usual disclaimer applies here. I wrote this for my own edification and enjoyment and make no guarantees of any kind. I'm sharing this in case someone in this forum has the same interest and curiosity as myself, and may find some uses for it. I'm sure this script is rather trivial to the more experienced and technical individuals visiting this forum, but it works for me and I like it.
Copy the script below and save as builddwrt or something else you prefer.
