Building and Testing

So you want to build your own Traefik Mesh binary from the sources? Let’s see how.

Building

To build Traefik Mesh from the sources you need either Docker and make, or Go.

With Docker and make

Traefik Mesh can be built from the sources by using the make command. This will create a binary for the Linux platform in the dist directory and a Docker image:

  1. $ make
  2. #[...]
  3. Successfully tagged traefik/mesh:latest
  4. docker run --name=build -t "traefik/mesh:latest" version
  5. version:
  6.  version     : b417901
  7.  commit      : b417901
  8.  build date  : 2020-09-01_09:27:55AM
  9.  go version  : go1.15
  10.  go compiler : gc
  11.  platform    : linux/amd64
  12. #[...]
  14. $ ls dist/
  15. traefik-mesh

Note

The default make target invokes the clean, check, test and build targets.

With Go

Requirements:

  • Go v1.14+
  • Environment variable GO111MODULE=on

One your Go environment is set up, you can build Traefik Mesh from the sources by using the go build command. The Go compiler will build an executable for your platform.

  1. $ go build -o dist/traefik-mesh cmd/mesh/mesh.go
  2. $ ./dist/traefik-mesh version
  3. version:
  4.  version     : dev
  5.  commit      : I don't remember exactly
  6.  build date  : I don't remember exactly
  7.  go version  : go1.15
  8.  go compiler : gc
  9.  platform    : linux/amd64

Testing

With Docker and make

Run unit tests by using the test target:

  1. $ make test
  2. docker build --tag "traefik/mesh:test" --target maker --build-arg="MAKE_TARGET=local-test" /home/user/traefik-mesh/
  3. #[...]
  4. --- PASS: TestBuildConfiguration (0.00s)
  5.     --- PASS: TestBuildConfiguration/simple_configuration_build_with_HTTP_service (0.20s)
  6. PASS
  7. coverage: 69.7% of statements
  8. ok      github.com/traefik/mesh/pkg/providers/smi   1.982s  coverage: 69.7% of statements
  9. ?       github.com/traefik/mesh/pkg/signals [no test files]
  10. Removing intermediate container 4e887c16ddee
  11.  ---> 75d44229a46e
  12. Successfully built 75d44229a46e
  13. Successfully tagged traefik/mesh:test

Run the integration tests by using the test-integration target. For development purposes, you can specify which tests to run by using the TESTFLAGS environment variable (only works with the test-integration target):

  1. # Run every tests in the MyTest suite
  2. $ TESTFLAGS="-check.f MyTestSuite" make test-integration
  4. # Run the test "MyTest" in the MyTest suite
  5. $ TESTFLAGS="-check.f MyTestSuite.MyTest" make test-integration
  7. # Run every tests starting with "My", in the MyTest suite
  8. $ TESTFLAGS="-check.f MyTestSuite.My" make test-integration
  10. # Run every tests ending with "Test", in the MyTest suite
  11. $ TESTFLAGS="-check.f MyTestSuite.*Test" make test-integration

Run the integration tests in the integration directory by using the go test ./integration -integration command:

  1. $ go test -v ./integration -integration -check.f CoreDNSSuite
  2. #[...]
  3. OK: 2 passed
  4. --- PASS: Test (161.20s)
  5. PASS
  6. ok      github.com/traefik/mesh/integration 162.695s

Important

Before running the integration tests, build the Traefik Mesh Docker image. Check out the Building section for more details.
