Development Guide

Table of Contents

This document is the canonical source of truth for things like supported toolchain versions for building TKEStack.

Please submit an [issue] on Github if you

  • Notice a requirement that this doc does not capture.
  • Find a different doc that specifies requirements (the doc should instead link here).

Requirements

TKEStack development helper scripts assume an up-to-date GNU tools environment.

  • Recent Linux distros should work out-of-the-box.

  • MacOS ships with outdated BSD-based tools. We recommend installing [macOS GNU tools].

  • Note that Mingw64/Cygwin on Windows is not supported yet.

If you don't have Git-LFS installed, see Git-LFS for instructions on how to install on different operating systems.

Go

TKEStack's backend is written in Go. If you don't have a Go development environment, please set one up.

TKEStack requires Go
0.8-0.12 1.12.5
1.0+ 1.13.3

TKEStack uses go modules to manage dependencies. If you have problem of accessing some go package, please check goproxy.

Node.js

TKEStack's frontend is written in Typescript. To bundle TKEStack's frontend code, you need a Node.js and NPM execution environment, you can use nvm to install them.

TKEStack requires Node.js requires NPM
0.8-0.12 9.4+ 5.6+
1.0-1.3 10.3+ 6.1+
1.4+ 12.5+ 6.14+

Clone source code

# Clone the repository on your machine
git clone git@github.com:tkestack/tke.git

# If you don't have a SSH key, feel free to clone using HTTPS instead
# git clone https://github.com/tkestack/tke.git

Building binary

The following section is a quick start on how to build TKE on a local OS/shell environment.

make build

The best way to validate your current setup is to build a small part of TKEStack. This way you can address issues without waiting for the full build to complete. To build a specific part of TKE use the BINS environment variable to let the build scripts know you want to build only a certain package/executable.

make build BINS=${package_you_want}
make build BINS="${package_you_want_1} ${package_you_want_2}"

Note: This applies to all top level folders under tke/cmd.

So for the tke-gateway, you can run:

make build BINS=tke-gateway

If everything checks out you will have an executable in the _output/{platform} directory to play around with.

Note: If you are using CDPATH, you must either start it with a leading colon, or unset the variable. The make rules and scripts to build require the current directory to come first on the CD search path in order to properly navigate between directories.

cd ${working_dir}/tke
make

To build binaries for multiple CPU architecture:

make build.multiarch

To build a specific OS/arch of TKEStack use the PLATFORMS environment variable to let the build scripts know you want to build only for OS/arch.

make build.multiarch PLATFORMS="linux_amd64 windows_amd64 darwin_amd64"

Building docker image

In a production environment, it is recommended to run the TKEStack components in the Kubernetes cluster. TKEStack will build and push the image to the Docker Hub after each release.

If you don't have docker installed, see here for instructions on how to install on different operating systems.

If you need to build a container image locally, you can simply execute the instructions:

make image

If you want to build a container image of just one or more components, you can use IMAGES variables to control:

make image IMAGES=${package_you_want}
make image IMAGES="${package_you_want_1} ${package_you_want_2}"

Note: This applies to all top level folders under build/docker (except build/docker/tools).

So for the tke-platform-api, you can run:

make image IMAGES=tke-platform-api

To build container images for multiple CPU architecture (i.e., linux_amd64 and linux_arm64), type:

make image.multiarch

Above all make image commands will use experimental features of Docker daemon (i.e. docker build --platform). Please refer to docker build docs to enable experimental features.

To build a specific OS/arch for TKEStack container images, please use the PLATFORMS environment variable to let the build scripts know which OS/arch you want to build.

make image.multiarch PLATFORMS="linux_amd64 linux_arm64"

Releasing docker image

Below is a quick start on how to push TKEStack container images to docker hub.

make push

TKEStack manages docker images via manifests and manifest lists. Please make sure you enable experimental features in the Docker client. You can find more details in docker manifest docs.

Generally, make push is used by CI, not developer. Make sure you know what you are doing when using it.

For more functions of other components, please see here.

Development example

Before new feature development or bug fix, you should prepare a TKEStack environment. If you don't have one, please check installation guide.

After modifying the code, you might want to make sure the code will work as you wish, so you should replace the component(s) with yours. What you need to do is as follows:

Take tke-platform-controller as an example.

  1. Build a container image. Run make image IMAGES=tke-platform-controller in tke directory, you wil get a image named tkestack/tke-platform-controller-amd64:v1.4.0.xx.xxxx.
  2. Retag the image for TKEStack registry. By default, you should run docker tag tkestack/tke-platform-controller-amd64:v1.4.0.xx.xxxx registry.tke.com/library/tke-platform-controller:{unique version}. If you changed the registry domain, please change registry.tke.com to the domain you set. registry domain
  3. Save image as a archive file. Run docker save -o tke-platform-controller.tar registry.tke.com/library/tke-platform-controller:{unique version}
  4. Send archive file to the TKEStack host. Run scp tke-platform-controller.tar root@{your TKEStack host}:/root/.
  5. Load image on your TKEStack host. Login your TKEStack host through ssh, ssh root@{your TKEStack host}, and run docker load -i tke-platform-controller.tar.
  6. Login TKEStack registry. Run docker login registry.tke.com in your TKEStack host, if the registry domain is changed, please use your custom domain. The registry's username and password are your TKEStack username and password. TKEStack username and password
  7. Push image to registry. Run docker push registry.tke.com/library/tke-platform-controller:{unique version} in your TKEStack host.
  8. Replace component. Access TKEStack in web browser, and change tke-platform-controller's image. TKEStack username and password

For tke-installer development, verification processes are as follows:

  1. Build tke-installer binary. Run VERSION={your tkestack version} make build BINS=tke-installer in tke directory.
  2. Send binary to your installer-node host. Run scp _output/linux/amd64/tke-installer root@{your installer-node host}:/root/.
  3. Replace binary in container. Run docker cp tke-installer tke-installer:/app/bin/ in installer-node host.
  4. Restart container. Run docker restart tke-installer in installer-node host.
