Building

You need either Docker and make, or go and glide in order to build traefik.

Setting up your go environment

• You need go v1.5
• You need to set export GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1 environment variable
• You need go-bindata to be able to use go generate command (needed to build) : go get github.com/jteeuwen/go-bindata/....
• If you clone Træfɪk into something like ~/go/src/github.com/traefik, your GOPATH variable will have to be set to ~/go: export GOPATH=~/go.

Using Docker and Makefile

You need to run the binary target. This will create binaries for Linux platform in the dist folder.

$ make binary
docker build -t "traefik-dev:no-more-godep-ever" -f build.Dockerfile .

Using glide

The idea behind glide is the following :

• when checkout(ing) a project, run glide up --quick to install (go get …) the dependencies in the GOPATH.
• if you need another dependency, import and use it in the source, and run glide get github.com/Masterminds/cookoo to save it in vendor and add it to your glide.yaml.

$ glide up --quick
# generate
$ go generate
# Simple go build
$ go build
# Using gox to build multiple platform
$ gox "linux darwin" "386 amd64 arm" \
    -output="dist/traefik_{{.OS}}-{{.Arch}}"
# run other commands like tests
$ go test ./...
ok      _/home/vincent/src/github/vdemeester/traefik    0.004s

Tests

You can run unit tests using the test-unit target and the integration test using the test-integration target.

$ make test-unit
docker build -t "traefik-dev:your-feature-branch" -f build.Dockerfile .

docker run --rm -it -e OS_ARCH_ARG -e OS_PLATFORM_ARG -e TESTFLAGS -v "/home/vincent/src/github/vdemeester/traefik/dist:/go/src/github.com/containous/traefik/dist" "traefik-dev:your-feature-branch" ./script/make.sh generate test-unit
