I want to use the Google V8 js engine on my JBoss server that runs on a centos6 or centos7 machine.
I fount J2V8 which is supposed to take care of the JNI aspect, but from the project page I understand that I need to have a build version of V8 installed on the machine to use it.
I tried to follow the instructions in the project to compile it with no success.
Here is the script that I ran on centos7 to make it work:
yum install -y git
git clone https://github.com/v8/v8.git
git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git
export PATH=`pwd`/depot_tools:"$PATH"
cd v8
gclient config https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8
gclient sync
export PYTHONPATH="/root/test/v8/v8/build/" # to include gn_helpers
tools/dev/v8gen.py arm64.release # pretty sure it's the right one, but tried all of the options and it doesn't work
I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "tools/dev/v8gen.py", line 304, in <module>
sys.exit(gen.main())
File "tools/dev/v8gen.py", line 298, in main

- Can it be done?
- On which platform?
- Where can I find the instructions on how to do it?
