Use the Source
Introduction
This section describes how to build VMware Secrets Manager from source.
For a more detailed walkthrough about how to contribute to VMware Secrets Manager, see the Contributing section.
Prerequisites
Make you have the following installed on your system:
Clone the Project
cd $WORKSPACE
git clone https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/secrets-manager.git
cd secrets-manager
Build the Project
Make sure you have a running local Docker daemon and execute the following:
make build-local
Generating Protocol Buffers
You might need to generate the protocol buffers if you are working on the VSecM API. To do so, execute the following:
make generate-proto-files
If this command fails, you might need to install the protoc compiler:
go install google.golang.org/protobuf/cmd/protoc-gen-go@latest
go install google.golang.org/grpc/cmd/protoc-gen-go-grpc@latest
Updating Vendor Dependencies
If the project fails to build, you might need to update the vendor dependencies. To do so, execute the following on the project root:
cd $WORKSPACE/secrets-manager
go mod tidy
go mod vendor
That’s All
That’s it 🎉. You now have images of VMware Secrets Manager and other related components built locally on your Docker registry.
