Node

For convenience I've made available Solaris 10 packages (x86 only) of node.js. Building it isn't overly taxing, but getting some of the prerequisites (such as a convenient compiler) may be a little tedious.

As of 0.8.6, there are SunOS binary tarballs available on nodejs.org. They are for Solaris 11 or OpenSolaris/Illumos derivatives (SmartOS, OpenIndiana, OmniOS). If you're on Solaris 10, then unfortunately those binaries won't work for you but you can use the ones packaged below.

Current version, Node 0.10.8:

This includes Node 0.10.8, cURL 7.30.0. It's built with GCC 4.6.3 and includes the two shared libraries necessary for it to run. Uncompress the file with bunzip2, then the following as root:

pkgadd -d TRIBnode-0.10.8.0.pkg TRIBnode

To upgrade from one version to the next, use pkgrm TRIBnode to remove the old version and install the new version as above.

Earlier releases

Previous stable version, Node 0.8.23:

This includes Node 0.8.23, cURL 7.29.0. It's built with GCC 4.6.3 and includes the two shared libraries necessary for it to run. Uncompress the file with bunzip2, then the following as root:

pkgadd -d TRIBnode-0.8.23.0.pkg TRIBnode

To upgrade from one version to the next, use pkgrm TRIBnode to remove the old version and install the new version as above.

Earlier stable version, Node 0.6.21:

This includes Node 0.6.21, cURL 7.27.0, openssl 1.0.0j, and npm. It's built with GCC 4.6.1 and includes the two shared libraries necessary for it to run. Uncompress the file with bunzip2, then the following as root:

pkgadd -d TRIBnode-0.6.21.0.pkg TRIBnode

To upgrade from one version to the next, use pkgrm TRIBnode to remove the old version and install the new version as above.

The last version from the 0.4 series is also available. Note that this has been deprecated.

This includes Node 0.4.12, cURL 7.22.0, and npm. Uncompress the file with bunzip2, then:

pkgadd -d TRIBnode-0.4.12.0.pkg TRIBnode

node-kstat

I've augmented node-kstat from Bryan Cantrill's original. There's the odd minor fix, I've essentially completed the list of kstats supported (including most of the raw kstats), and added methods that give the support needed by JKstat, and there's an example jkstat.js script that can run as a server under node that the JKstat client can connect to.

While it's now ancient and no longer relevant, a couple of blog entries described my early attempts to get node running on Solaris. For details see blog entry 1 and blog entry 2.
