Mender is an open source over-the-air (OTA) software updater for embedded Linux devices. Mender comprises a client running at the embedded device, as well as a server that manages deployments across many devices.
This repository contains the Mender Artifact Worker, which is part of the Mender server. The Mender server is designed as a microservices architecture and comprises several repositories.
The generic Worker performs asynchronous API calls upon user's request and it is complementary to the Workflow orchestrator component.
To start using Mender, we recommend that you begin with the Getting started section in the Mender documentation.
As the Mender server is designed as microservices architecture, it requires several repositories to be built to be fully functional. If you are testing the Mender server it is therefore easier to follow the getting started section above as it integrates these services.
If you would like to build the worker independently, you can follow these steps:
git clone https://github.com/mendersoftware/workflows-worker.git
cd workflows-worker
go build
