Introduction

deployment tool for the Brahmaputra release of OPNFV, required

+The Fuel build system is designed around Docker containers such that
dependencies outside of the build system can be kept to a minimum. It
also shields the host from any potential dangerous operations
performed by the build system.
Minimum Hardware Requirements
-----------------------------
-- An x86_64 host (Bare-metal or VM) with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS installed
-
- - Note: Builds on Wily (Ubuntu 15.x) are not supportted currently
-
- ~30 GB available disc
- 4 GB RAM
On the host, the following packages must be installed:
-- docker - see https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/ubuntulinux/ for
- installation notes for Ubuntu 14.04. Note: only use the Ubuntu stock
- distro of Docker (docker-engine). Tested against ver 1.9.x and greater
+- An x86_64 host (Bare-metal or VM) with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS installed

-- git (simply available through sudo apt-get install git)
+ - **Note:** Builds on Wily (Ubuntu 15.x) are currently not supported

Preparations
-------------
+============
Setting up the Docker build container
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+-------------------------------------
After having installed Docker, add yourself to the docker group:
-<sudo usermod -a -G docker [userid]>
+$ sudo usermod -a -G docker [userid]
+
+Also make sure to define relevant DNS servers part of the global
+DNS chain in your </etc/default/docker> configuration file.
+Uncomment, and modify the values appropriately.
-Also make sure to define relevant DNS servers part of the global dns chain in
-in your </etc/default/docker> configuration file. Uncomment, modify the values appropriately
-and save and quit the file. For example:
+For example:
<DOCKER_OPTS=" --dns=8.8.8.8 --dns=8.8.8.4">
Then restart docker:
-<sudo service docker restart>
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ sudo service docker restart
Setting up OPNFV Gerrit in order to being able to clone the code
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
don't already have one), create one with ssh-keygen
- Add your generated public key in OPNFV Gerrit <https://gerrit.opnfv.org/>
- (this requires a linuxfoundation account, create one if you do not
+ (this requires a Linux foundation account, create one if you do not
already have one)
- Select "SSH Public Keys" to the left and then "Add Key" and paste
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now it is time to clone the code repository:
-<git clone ssh://'Linux foundation user'@gerrit.opnfv.org:29418/fuel>
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ git clone ssh://<Linux foundation user>@gerrit.opnfv.org:29418/fuel
Now you should have the OPNFV fuel repository with the Fuel
directories stored locally on your build host.
Check out the Brahmaputra release:
-<cd fuel>
-<git checkout insert-b-release-tag-here0>
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ cd fuel
+ $ git checkout brahmaputra.1.0
Clone the OPNFV code Git repository without a SSH key
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can also opt to clone the code repository without a SSH key:
-<git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org:29418/gerrit/fuel>
-
-Make sure to checkout the release tag as described above.
-
-
-Building
-========
-
-There are two methods available for building Fuel:
-
-- A low level method using Make
+.. code-block:: bash
-- An abstracted method using build.sh
+ $ git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/fuel
+Make sure to checkout the release tag as described above.
Support for building behind a http/https/rsync proxy
----------------------------------------------------
If the proxy setup is not allowing the rsync protocol, an alternative
solution is to use a SSH tunnel to a machine capable of accessing the
outbound port 873. Set the RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG according to the rsync
-manual page (for example to "ssh <username>@<hostname> nc %H 873") to enable
-this. Also note that netcat needs to be installed on the remote
-system!
+manual page (for example to "ssh <username>@<hostname> nc %H 873")
+to enable this. Also note that netcat needs to be installed on the
+remote system!
Make sure that the ssh command also refers to the user on the remote
system, as the command itself will be run from the Docker build container
cache will be on the ISO!
Configure your build environment

is set to " ". When using this functionality, the resulting iso file

+Building
+========
+
+There are two methods available for building Fuel:
+
+- A low level method using Make
+
+- An abstracted method using build.sh
+
Low level build method using make
---------------------------------
The low level method is based on Make:
- none/all - this will:
- - If not already existing, initialize the docker build environment
+ - Initialize the docker build environment
- - If not already done, build OpenDaylight from upstream (as defined
- by fuel-build config-spec)
+ - Build Fuel from upstream (as defined by fuel-build/config-spec)
- - If not already done, build fuel from upstream (as defined by
- fuel-build/config-spec)
+ - Build the OPNFV defined plugins/features from upstream
- Build the defined additions to fuel (as defined by the structure
of this framework)
- clean - this will remove all artifacts from earlier builds.
+- debug - this will simply enter the build container without starting a build, from here you can start a build by enter "make iso"
+
If the build is successful, you will find the generated ISO file in
the <fuel/build/release> subdirectory!
Abstracted build method using build.sh
-======================================
+--------------------------------------
The abstracted build method uses the <fuel/ci/build.sh> script which
allows you to:
- Create and use a build cache - significantly speeding up the
- buildtime if upstream repositories have not changed.
+ build time if upstream repositories have not changed.
- push/pull cache and artifacts to an arbitrary URI (http(s):, file:, ftp:)
