Build Switch Images - buildimage

Description

Build an Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) compatiable network operating system (NOS) installer image for network switches, and also build docker images running inside the NOS.

Prerequisite

1. Build environment

Preferably use the Dockerfile, or use Debian Jessie and manually install packages appearing in the Dockerfile.

2. Linux kernel with switch drivers

Build the Azure/sonic-linux-kernel project and copy the output .deb file into ./deps directory.

3. initramfs-tools with loop device support

Run the script to build the .deb file into ./deps directory.

./get_deps.sh

4. Fetch the git submodule

If there is no files under ./docker-base, manually fetch them.

git submodule update --init --recursive

Usage

Build NOS installer image

./build_debian USERNAME PASSWORD_ENCRYPTED && ./build_image.sh

For example, the user name is 'admin' and the password is 'YourPaSsWoRd'.

./build_debian.sh "admin" "$(perl -e 'print crypt("YourPaSsWoRd", "salt"),"\n"')" && ./build_image.sh

The root is disabled, but the created user could sudo.

Build docker images

./build_docker.sh docker-sswsyncd
./build_docker.sh docker-database
./build_docker.sh docker-bgp
./build_docker.sh docker-snmp
./build_docker.sh docker-lldp
./build_docker.sh docker-basic_router

GitHub Workflow

We're following basic GitHub Flow. If you have no idea what we're talking about, check out GitHub's official guide. Note that merge is only performed by the repository maintainer.

Guide for performing commits:

Isolate each commit to one component/bugfix/issue/feature
Use a standard commit message format:

[component/folder touched]: Description intent of your changes

[List of changes]

Signed-off-by: Your Name your@email.com

For example:

swss-common: Stabilize the ConsumerTable

* Fixing autoreconf
* Fixing unit-tests by adding checkers and initialize the DB before start
* Adding the ability to select from multiple channels
* Health-Monitor - The idea of the patch is that if something went wrong with the notification channel,
  we will have the option to know about it (Query the LLEN table length).
