Revision bd77e341915312594395e486b0ec0bed9d6933a6 authored by Peter Dillinger on 06 July 2020, 18:18:11 UTC, committed by Facebook GitHub Bot on 06 July 2020, 18:19:48 UTC
Summary:
(a) use STRESS_LIBRARY for db_stress and make sure
STRESS_LIBRARY has other stress test dependencies (as in buck build)

(b) fix rpath option to be accepted on MacOS. It still doesn't fully work
for me e.g. to run a LIB_MODE=shared unit test binary from another
directory, as it does on Linux, but the option is now accepted, and running
unit tests from current directory works for me.

Also adding LIB_MODE=shared to Travis. (Later TBD where best to fit in
in CircleCI.)

# RocksDBLite

RocksDBLite is a project focused on mobile use cases, which don't need a lot of fancy things we've built for server workloads and they are very sensitive to binary size. For that reason, we added a compile flag ROCKSDB_LITE that comments out a lot of the nonessential code and keeps the binary lean.

Some examples of the features disabled by ROCKSDB_LITE:
* compiled-in support for LDB tool
* No backupable DB
* No support for replication (which we provide in form of TransactionalIterator)
* No advanced monitoring tools
* No special-purpose memtables that are highly optimized for specific use cases
* No Transactions

When adding a new big feature to RocksDB, please add ROCKSDB_LITE compile guard if:
* Nobody from mobile really needs your feature,
* Your feature is adding a lot of weight to the binary.

Don't add ROCKSDB_LITE compile guard if:
* It would introduce a lot of code complexity. Compile guards make code harder to read. It's a trade-off.
* Your feature is not adding a lot of weight.

If unsure, ask. :)
