Building VyOS
=============
This will guide you though the process of building a VyOS ISO using
Docker_. This process has been tested on clean installs of Debian Jessie, Stretch, and Buster.
There are different ways you can build VyOS.
Building using a :ref:`Docker<build docker>` container, although not the only way, is the
easiest way as all dependencies are managed for you. It also allows you to
build ARM images on a x86 host.
However, you can also set up your own build machine and :ref:`build from source<build source>`.
.. note:: Starting with VyOS 1.2 the release model of VyOS has changed.
VyOS is now **free as in speech, but not as in beer**. This means
that while VyOS is still an open source project, the release ISOs are no
longer free and can only be obtained via subscription, or by contributing to
the community.

The source code remains public and an ISO can be built

Generating the container

Build Docker Container
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The container can built by hand or by fetching the pre-built one from
DockerHub. Using the pre-built VyOS DockerHub organisation (https://hub.docker.com/u/vyos) will
ensure that the container is always up-to-date. A rebuild is triggered once the
container changes (please note this will take 2-3 hours after pushing to
the vyos-build repository).

will ensure that the container is always up-to-date. A rebuild is triggered
once the container changes (please note this will take 2-3 hours after pushing
to the vyos-build repository).
.. note: If you are using the pre-built container, it will be automatically
downloaded from DockerHub if it is not found on your local machine when
you build the ISO.
To manually download the container, run:
.. code-block:: none
$ docker pull vyos/vyos-build:crux
The container can always be built directly from source:
.. code-block:: none
$ git clone -b crux --single-branch https://github.com/vyos/vyos-build
$ docker build -t vyos/vyos-build docker
$ git clone -b crux --single-branch https://github.com/vyos/vyos-build # For VyOS 1.2
$ git clone -b master --single-branch https://github.com/vyos/vyos-build # For rolling release
$ cd vyos-build
$ docker build -t vyos/vyos-build:crux docker # For VyOS 1.2
$ docker build -t vyos/vyos-build docker # For rolling release
.. note: The container is automatically downloaded from Dockerhub if it is not

Build ISO inside container
--------------------------
Build ISO
^^^^^^^^^
After the container is generated either manually or fetched from DockerHub,
a fresh build of the VyOS ISO can begin.
If you have not build your own Docker image, you need to clone the repository to your local machine:
.. code-block:: none
$ docker run --rm -it --privileged -v $(pwd):/vyos -w /vyos vyos/vyos-build bash
$ git clone -b crux --single-branch https://github.com/vyos/vyos-build # For VyOS 1.2
$ git clone -b crux --single-branch https://github.com/vyos/vyos-build # For rolling release
Now a fresh build of the VyOS ISO can begin. Change directory to the ``vyos-build`` directory and run:
.. code-block:: none
$ cd vyos-build
$ docker run --rm -it --privileged -v $(pwd)/vyos-build:/vyos -w /vyos vyos/vyos-build:crux bash # For VyOS 1.2
$ docker run --rm -it --privileged -v $(pwd)/vyos-build:/vyos -w /vyos vyos/vyos-build bash # For rolling release
vyos_bld@d4220bb519a0:/vyos# ./configure --architecture amd64 \
--build-by "your@email.tld" \
--build-type release --version 1.2.0
vyos_bld@d4220bb519a0:/vyos# sudo make iso
To select the container you want to run, you need to specify the branch you are
interested in, this can be easily done by selecting the appropriate container
image:
The successfully built ISO should now be in the ``build/`` directory as
``live-image-[architecture].hybrid.iso``.
* For VyOS 1.2 (crux) use ``vyos/vyos-build:crux``
* For our VyOS rolling release you should use ``vyos/vyos-build`` which will
always refer to the latest image.
Good luck!
This ISO can be customized with the following list of configure options.
.. note: Make sure to choose the matching container for the version of VyOS
that is being built, ``vyos/vyos-build:crux`` for VyOS 1.2 (crux) and
``vyos/vyos-build`` for rolling release.
.. _build source:
From source
-----------
To build from source, you will need:
- Debian Buster for VyOS 1.2
- Debian Stretch for the rolling releases
To start, clone the repository to your local machine:
.. code-block:: none
$ git clone -b crux --single-branch https://github.com/vyos/vyos-build # For VyOS 1.2
$ git clone -b crux --single-branch https://github.com/vyos/vyos-build # For rolling release
For the packages required, you can refer to the ``docker/Dockerfile`` file
in the repository_. The ``./configure`` script will also warn you if any
dependencies are missing.
Once you have the required dependencies, you may configure the build by
running ``./configure`` with your options. For details, refer to
:ref:`Customizing the build<customize>`.
Once you have configured your build, build the ISO by running:
.. code-block:: none
$ sudo make iso
The successfully built ISO should now be in the ``build/`` directory as
``live-image-[architecture].hybrid.iso``.

Customizing the build

The build can be customized with the following list of configure options.
The full and current list can be generated with ``./configure --help``:

.. note: The build process does not differentiate when building a ``crux`` ISO or ``rolling``
image. Make sure to choose the matching container for the version of VyOS that is being built.
