This document provides a brief overview of Drone's build process, so that you can build and run Drone directly from source. For more detail, please see the .drone.yml and Makefile.
Requirements
- Make
- Go 1.4+
- Libsqlite3
Build and Test
We use make to build and package Drone. You can execute the following commands to build compile Drone locally:
make deps
make
make test
The all directive compiles binary files to the bin/ directory and embeds all static content (ie html, javascript, css files) directly into the binary for simplified distribution.
The test directive runs the go vet tool for simple linting and executes the suite of unit tests.
NOTE if you experience slow compile times you can go install the go-sqlite3 library from the vendored dependencies. This will prevent Drone from re-compiling on every build:
go install github.com/drone/drone/Godeps/_workspace/src/github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3
Run
To run Drone you can invoke make run. This will start Drone with the --debug flag which instructs Drone to server static content from disk. This is helpful if you are doing local development and editing the static JavaScript or CSS files.
Distribute
To generate a debian package:
make dist
To generate a Docker container:
docker build --rm=true -t drone/drone .
