It's unclear what arguments the script takes. The examples in the help of setup_multiversion_mongodb.py are out-of-date.
Usage: setup_multiversion_mongodb.py [options] ver1 [vers2 ...]
Ex: setup_multiversion_mongodb.py --installDir ./install
--linkDir ./link
--edition base
--platform Linux 2.0.6 2.0.3-rc0
--architecture x86_64
2.0 2.2 2.3
Ex: setup_multiversion_mongodb.py --installDir ./install
--linkDir ./link
--edition enterprise
--platform osx
2.4 2.2
To install the latest 4.2 on my ubuntu, I've tried:
- --edition base --platform ubuntu 4.2
- --edition base --platform linux 4.2
- --edition base --platform ubuntu-16.04 4.2
- --edition base --platform ubuntu-1604 4.2
- --edition base --platform ubuntu1604 4.2
- --edition base --platform ubuntu1604 4.2.7
- --target ubuntu1604 4.2
- --platform ubuntu1604 4.2
Finally --edition targeted --platform ubuntu1604 4.2.7 worked after reading the python script and running jq on https://downloads.mongodb.org/full.json
Ideally, the script should print out available platforms and versions. The difference between edition "base"/"enterprise"/"targeted" is unclear either. I understand the artifact lists may not be maintained by STM team, but most of the issue is of the usability of setup_multiversion_mongodb.py, so I start with STM team.
Finally, the error message isn't helpful.
$ python3 ./buildscripts/setup_multiversion_mongodb.py --installDir ~/Software/install/ --linkDir ~/Software/link/ --edition base --platform ubuntu1604 4.2.7
Cannot find a link for version 4.2.7, versions {} found.
