Building Weave Flux
80

Build

Ensure the repository is checked out into $GOPATH/src/github.com/weaveworks/flux. Then, from the root,

$ gvt restore
# .. time passes ..
$ make

This makes Docker images, and installs binaries to $GOPATH/bin.

Test

$ go test ./...

Note: In order to run the NATS message bus tests (the message bus that connects fluxctl -> fluxsvc -> nats -> fluxsvc -> fluxd) you need to have a running gnatsd instance.

Dependency management

We use gvt to manage vendored dependencies. Note that we do not check in the vendor folder.

To get all the dependencies put in the vendor/ folder, use

$ go get -u github.com/FiloSottile/gvt # install gvt if you don't have it
$ gvt restore

To add dependencies, use

$ gvt fetch <dependency>

gvt does not discover dependencies for you, but it will add them recursively; so, it should be sufficient to just add packages you import.
