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

using the process outlined here.

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
|
||||
found on your local machine when the below command is executed.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
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
