Dependencies
LingoDB relies on three main external dependencies:
Additional tools and libraries required:
- C++ compiler supporting C++ 20
- CMake 3.13.4 or newer
- Ninja
- lit (optional, for testing), can be e.g., installed via
pip install lit
We also provide a Dockerfile that contains all dependencies and tools required to build LingoDB.
When building dependencies from source, make sure that either the cmake config files are installed in a system-wide locations, or for example, the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH is set accordingly.
LLVM/MLIR
Ubuntu/Linux
Follow the instructions on https://apt.llvm.org/ to install the repository on your system.
Then install the following packages: clang-20 llvm-20 libclang-20-dev llvm-20-dev libmlir-20-dev mlir-20-tools clang-tidy-20
Binaries
For other recent Linux distributions, you can also rely on the pre-built binaries provided by the LLVM project on the Github release pages.
