1# pgloader source bundle
2
3In order to ease building pgloader for non-lisp users, the *bundle*
4distribution is a tarball containing pgloader and its build dependencies.
5See the the following documentation for more details:

9The *bundle* comes with a specific `Makefile` so that building it is as
10simple as the following (which includes testing the resulting binary):
11
12 make
13 LANG=en_US.UTF-8 make test
14
15The compilation might takes a while, it's because SBCL is trying hard to
16generate run-time binary code that is fast and efficient. Yes you need to be
17in a unicide environment to run the test suite, so that it matches with the
18encoding of the test *.load files.

20You can then package or use the pgloader binary:
21
22 ./bin/pgloader --version
23 ./bin/pgloader --help
24
25Note that the SQLite test files are not included in the bundle, for weithing
26too much here.
