Building OPA
The instructions specify the steps to build OPA version 0.63.0 on Linux on IBM Z for following distributions:
- RHEL (8.6, 8.8, 8.9, 9.0, 9.2, 9.3)
- SLES (15 SP5)
- Ubuntu (20.04, 22.04. 23.10)
General Notes:
- When following the steps below please use a standard permission user unless otherwise specified.
- A directory
/<source_root>/
will be referred to in these instructions, this is a temporary writable directory anywhere you'd like to place it.
Ensure that Docker-CE is installed.
Ensure the current user belongs to group docker
.
Use the below command to add group docker
if it does not exist:
sudo groupadd docker
Use the below command to add current user to group docker
if it has not been done:
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER && newgrp docker
If you want to build OPA using manual steps, go to STEP 3.
Use the following commands to build OPA using the build script. Please make sure you have wget
installed.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linux-on-ibm-z/scripts/master/OPA/0.63.0/build_opa.sh
# Build OPA
bash build_opa.sh [Provide -t option for executing build with tests]
If the build and tests complete successfully, go to STEP 6. In case of error, check logs at <source_root>/logs/
for more details or go to STEP 3 to follow manual build steps.
export SOURCE_ROOT=/<source_root>/
