Developer documentation

Hello, and welcome! If you're thinking about contributing to Kuma's code base, you came to the right place. This document serves as guide/reference for technical contributors.

Dependencies

The following dependencies are all necessary. Please follow the installation instructions for any tools/libraries that you may be missing.

Command line tool

  • curl
  • git
  • unzip
  • make
  • go
  • clang-format # normally included in system's clang package with some exceptions, please check with the following command: 
    clang-format --version

Helper commands

Throughout this guide, we will use make to run pre-defined tasks in the Makefile. Use the following command to list out all the possible commands:

make help

Installing dev tools

We packaged the remaining dependencies into one target:

make dev/tools

You can install each commands individually if you prefer.

ATTENTION: By default, development tools will be installed at $HOME/.kuma-dev/bin. Remember to include this directory into your PATH, e.g. by adding export PATH=$HOME/.kuma-dev/bin:$PATH line to the $HOME/.bashrc file or $HOME/.zshrc if using zsh. This can be overridden by setting the env var CI_TOOLS_DIR, but it isn't recommended.

Code checks

To run all code formatting, linting and vetting tools use the target:

make check

Testing

We use Ginkgo as our testing framework. To run the existing test suite, you have several options:

For all tests, run:

make test

And you can run tests that are specific to a part of Kuma by appending the app name as shown below:

make test/kumactl

For even more specific tests you can specify the package you want to run tests from:

make test TEST_PKG_LIST=<pkgPath>

pkgPath is a package list selector for example: ./pkg/xds/... will run all tests in the pkg/xds subtree.

There's a large set of integration tests that can be run with:

make test/e2e

These tests are big and slow, it is recommended to read e2e-test-tips before running them.

Building

To build all the binaries run:

make build

Like make test, you can append the app name to the target to build a specific binary. For example, here is how you would build the binary for only kumactl:

make build/kumactl

This could help expedite your development process if you only made changes to the kumactl files.

Running

Kubernetes

Execute

make -j k3d/restart

To stop any existing Kuma K3D cluster, start a new K3D cluster, load images, deploy Kuma and Kuma counter demo.

GKE

You can test development versions by first pushing to gcr.io:

gcloud auth configure-docker
make images/push DOCKER_REGISTRY=gcr.io/proj-123456

then setting up kubectl to connect to your cluster and installing Kuma:

gcloud container clusters get-credentials cluster-name
kumactl install control-plane --registry=gcr.io/proj-123456 | kubectl apply -f -
