How to build Jenkins X on Power

Building Jenkins-x on Power

Prerequisites

• git
• curl
• wget
• make
• tar
• Go 1.11.x or later
• dep

Configuring Go

-- The jx's binary eCLI is built on your machine in your GO Path.

sudo su
wget https://dl.google.com/go/go1.11.1.linux-ppc64le.tar.gz
chmod ugo+r go1.11.1.linux-ppc64le.tar.gz
tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.11.1.linux-ppc64le.tar.gz
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
export GOPATH=/<source_root>/

Dep Installation

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/golang/dep/master/install.sh | sh

Fork the Repository

-- Begin at Github by forking jx, then clone your fork locally. Since jx is a Go package, it should be located at $GOPATH/src/github.com/jenkins-x/jx.

mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/jenkins-x
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/jenkins-x
git clone [email protected]:<username>/jx.git
cd jx

Build

-- With the prerequisites installed and your fork of jx cloned, you can make changes to local jx source code.

• Run make to build the jx binaries:

make build

Testing

• To run the standard test suite:

make test

• To run the standard test suite including slow running tests:

make test-slow

• To run all tests including integration tests (NOTE These tests are not encapsulated):

make test-slow-integration

• To get a nice HTML report on the tests:

make test-report-html

Note: There are few test case failures observed on power for helm, kube and cmd module.
