OpenShift Monitoring

Introduction

This project contains a set of experimental tools useful for monitoring OpenShift clusters.

Building

Before trying to build makes sure that you have the following installed and available in your PATH environment variable:

docker

It is used to build the container images of the project.

python

It is usec to execute the build script, which is written in Python.

go

It is used to build the Go source code of the project.

dep

It is used to manage the Go dependencies and populate the vendor directory.

To build the project run the build script. It uses the dep tool to populate the vendor directory, it downloads the code generators needed to generate the Kubernetes client code, and then builds all the binaries inside the cmd subdirectories. To use it just run it:

$ ./build

The build script creates a .gopath directory and sets the GOPATH enviroment variable pointint to it, so there is no need to adjust your enviroment for that, and there is no need to place the project into any special directory. Just check out the code, and then run the build script.

The generated binaries will be in the .gopath/bin directory.

The project also contains a Makefile, but it is just a wrapper that calls the build script, its only purpose is to make life easier for persons that are used to run make to build.
