compilation command set example

kerl update releases

kerl install 27.0 /home/kenji/otp/27.0

For obtaining git release from GitHub Erlang/OTP archive

# use the following `kerl build git` command
kerl build git https://github.com/erlang/otp/ OTP-27.0 27.0

Enforcing concurrency in make

# set env variable MAKEFLAGS (see otp_build script)
env MAKEFLAGS="-j8" kerl build 27.0 27.0-test

On .kerlrc

I have removed individual .kerlrc files to encapsulate the execution environment inside the shell scripts. Use the shell scripts.

Tips and caveats

• Since .kerlrc is a dot file for /bin/sh, exporting inside the environment will define the env variables
• The export commands will affect your login environment when activating curl!
• Rule of thumb: keep .kerlrc entries all commented out or use independent shell scripts
