Prepare Your Development Environment

This document goes through the development dependencies one requires in order to build the RP code.

Software Required

  1. Install Go 1.18 or later, if you haven't already.

    1. After downloading follow the Install instructions, replacing the tar archive with your download.
    2. Append export PATH="${PATH}:/usr/local/go/bin" to your shell's profile file.
  2. Configure GOPATH as an OS environment variable in your shell (a requirement of some dependencies for make generate). If you want to keep the default path, you can add something like GOPATH=$(go env GOPATH) to your shell's profile/RC file.

  3. Append export GO111MODULE=auto to your shell's profile file.

    1. Read New module changes in Go 1.16 for more information.
  4. Install Python 3.6+, if you haven't already. You will also need python-setuptools installed, if you don't have it installed already.

  5. Install the az client, if you haven't already.

  6. Install OpenVPN if it is not already installed

  7. Install the relevant packages required for your OS defined below.

  8. Install Podman and podman-docker if you haven't already, used for building container images.

  9. Run for az acr login compatability

    sudo touch /etc/containers/nodocker
    
  10. Install golangci-lint and yamllint (optional but your code is required to comply to pass the CI)

Fedora / RHEL Packages

  1. Install the gpgme-devel, libassuan-devel, and openssl packages.

    sudo dnf install -y gpgme-devel libassuan-devel openssl

NOTE:: If using RHEL, register the system with subscription-manager register, and then enable the CodeReady Linux Builder repository to install *-devel packages. For other packages not in the base repositories, such as OpenVPN, you can enable the EPEL repository to install them.

  1. Optionally install Docker 17.05+ or later as an alternative to podman.

Debian Packages

Install the libgpgme-dev package.

MacOS Packages

  1. We are open to developers on MacOS working on this repository. We are asking MacOS users to setup GNU utils on their machines.

    We are aiming to limit the amount of shell scripting, etc. in the repository, installing the GNU utils on MacOS will minimise the chances of unexpected differences in command line flags, usages, etc., and make it easier for everyone to ensure compatibility down the line.

    Install the following packages on MacOS:

    # GNU Utils
    brew install coreutils findutils gnu-tar grep
    
    # Install envsubst (provided with gettext)
    brew install gettext
    brew link gettext
    
    # Install gpgme
    brew install gpgme
    
    # Install diffutils to avoid errors during test runs
    brew install diffutils
    
  2. Modify your ~/.zshrc (or ~/.bashrc for Bash): this prepends PATH with GNU Utils paths;

    echo "export PATH=$(find $(brew --prefix)/opt -type d -follow -name gnubin -print | paste -s -d ':' -):\$PATH" >> ~/.zshrc
    
  3. Add the following into your ~/.zshrc/~/.bashrc file:

    export LDFLAGS="-L$(brew --prefix)/lib"
    export CFLAGS="-I$(brew --prefix)/include"
    export CGO_LDFLAGS=$LDFLAGS
    export CGO_CFLAGS=$CFLAGS
    

Getting Started

  1. Login to Azure:

    az login
    
  2. Clone the repository to your local machine:

    go get -u github.com/Azure/ARO-RP/...
    

    Alternatively you can also use:

    git clone https://github.com/Azure/ARO-RP.git $GOPATH/src/github.com/Azure/ARO-RP
    
  3. Go to project:

    cd ${GOPATH:-$HOME/go}/src/github.com/Azure/ARO-RP
