Quick Start

MINIMAL Edition (Fastest)

# Core database only, no LLM, no GPU, smallest binary
./scripts/build-minimal.sh

# Run
./build-minimal/themis_server --config config/config-minimal.yaml

COMMUNITY Edition (Default)

# Full features, optional LLM/GPU
./scripts/build.sh

# Run
./build/themis_server --config config/config.yaml

ENTERPRISE Edition

# Contact sales@themisdb.com for license
cmake -S . -B build-enterprise \
  -DTHEMIS_EDITION=ENTERPRISE \
  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build build-enterprise --parallel

---

Docker Builds

MINIMAL Edition

docker build -f Dockerfile.minimal -t themisdb:minimal .
docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v themis_data:/data themisdb:minimal

COMMUNITY Edition

docker build -f Dockerfile.themis-server -t themisdb:community .
docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v themis_data:/data themisdb:community

Build Options

Custom CMake Configuration

# MINIMAL with tests enabled
cmake -S . -B build \
  -DTHEMIS_EDITION=MINIMAL \
  -DTHEMIS_BUILD_TESTS=ON

# COMMUNITY with GPU disabled
cmake -S . -B build \
  -DTHEMIS_EDITION=COMMUNITY \
  -DTHEMIS_ENABLE_GPU=OFF \
  -DTHEMIS_ENABLE_LLM=OFF

# ENTERPRISE with all features
cmake -S . -B build \
  -DTHEMIS_EDITION=ENTERPRISE \
  -DTHEMIS_ENABLE_GPU=ON \
  -DTHEMIS_ENABLE_LLM=ON \
  -DTHEMIS_ENABLE_SHARDING=ON

---

Troubleshooting

Build fails with "vcpkg not found"

# Install vcpkg
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg.git $HOME/vcpkg
cd $HOME/vcpkg && ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh

# Set environment variable
export VCPKG_ROOT=$HOME/vcpkg

Out of memory during build

# Reduce parallel jobs
NUM_JOBS=2 ./scripts/build-minimal.sh

Wrong edition running

# Check edition
./build/themis_server --version

# Expected output:
# ThemisDB v1.3.5 (MINIMAL Edition)
