In order to develop inside a Docker container you must mount your local copy ofthe Kops repo into the container’s GOPATH. For the official Golang Dockerimage this is simply a matter of running the following command:

docker run -it -v /path/to/local/kops/repo:/go/src/k8s.io/kops golang bash

You should now be able to test if everything is working by building the projectusing make kops or running the tests with make test. In order to simulatethe tests ran on the CI server then use the target make ci.
