Compile From Source
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Producing a release requires **Go 1.11** or newer and **Python 3** + **pip3** + ``docs/requirements.txt`` for the Sphinx documentation.
A tutorial to install Go is available over at `golang.org <https://golang.org/doc/install>`_.
Python and pip3 should probably be installed via your distro's package manager.
Alternatively, you can use the Docker build process:
it is used to produce the official zrepl `binary releases`_
and serves as a reference for build dependencies and procedure:
::
git clone https://github.com/zrepl/zrepl.git && \
cd zrepl && \
sudo docker build -t zrepl_build -f build.Dockerfile . && \
sudo docker run -it --rm \
-v "${PWD}:/src" \
--user "$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
zrepl_build make release
Alternatively, you can install build dependencies on your local system and then build in your ``$GOPATH``:
::
mkdir -p "${GOPATH}/src/github.com/zrepl/zrepl"
git clone https://github.com/zrepl/zrepl.git "${GOPATH}/src/github.com/zrepl/zrepl"
cd "${GOPATH}/src/github.com/zrepl/zrepl"
python3 -m venv3
source venv3/bin/activate
./lazy.sh devsetup
make release
The Python venv is used for the documentation build dependencies.
If you just want to build the zrepl binary, leave it out and use `./lazy.sh godep` instead.
Either way, all build results are located in the ``artifacts/`` directory.
.. NOTE::
It is your job to install the appropriate binary in the zrepl users's ``$PATH``, e.g. ``/usr/local/bin/zrepl``.
Otherwise, the examples in the :ref:`quick-start guides <quickstart-toc>` may need to be adjusted.
