I'm excited since I'm specifically in the market for a lightweight tsdb written in Erlang. Also the documentation looks quite nice.

But like all the other possible contenders I've found, so far. I am unable to compile this project out of the box. Hopefully the maintainers of this one will be commenting on my github issues.

At this point it I'm getting the feeling I will have to my own half-baked tsdb to answer only my immediate problem, instead of finding the magic do-it-all well written, documented and extensible tsdb in Erlang. (I'm 2 weeks into Erlang, so it will probably be very terrible).

I've tried (and opened various issues on): pulsedb: https://github.com/pulsedb/pulsedb litetsdb: https://github.com/dreyk/litetsdb etsdb: https://github.com/philipcristiano/etsdb

I'm surprised you found that, I'm working on etsdb on hack days when I get the chance. It sort of works but shouldn't be trusted with production data.

Can you please describe what failed during compilation?

Everything I have found is documented in their respective github repositories.

This is my main issue https://github.com/band115/ecirca/issues/38

I can't find much docs on how to use rebar's {pre_hooks, [{compile, ...

$ERL_CFLAGS is set to (note the extra quotes).

-I"/usr/local/Cellar/erlang/17.3.4/lib/erlang/lib/erl_interface-3.7.19/include" -I"/usr/local/Cellar/erlang/17.3.4/lib/erlang/erts-6.2.1/include"

I don't know if this issue befalls on the erlang distribution (homebrew) on my system, rebar or ecirca ..

Big thanks for the report, I'll look into it in a few days.

mtourne: Doesn't look like you opened any issues on that last one (philipcristiano/etsdb). Are you sure you looked at it?

For this one I couldn't quite figure out the modus operandi (no documentation) and it seemed too much a work in progress to consider seriously, as the author himself sort of stated above. I will definitely read parts of the source code if I do in fact decide to roll out my own / extend an existing one to my needs.
