Prepare the Edge Conductor tool

This tutorial shows you how to prepare and install the Edge Conductor tool.

Contents

Before You Begin

Be sure your host meets the following requirements.

Hardware:

  • CPU: 2 or more cores
  • Memory: 2 gigabytes (GB) or greater.
  • Storage: 10 GB or greater available storage is required to build and run the Day-0 environment.
  • Internet connection: Internet connectivity is necessary to download and use some features.

NOTE: For each KIND node, you need to add 2 CPU cores and 2 gigabytes (GB) memory.

OS and System:

  • Ubuntu 18.04+
  • make 4.1+
  • DockerCE
    • 18.09.11+ (for DockerCE v18)
    • 19.03.13+ (for DockerCE v19)
    • After you install DockerCE, configure a user group so you can use Docker without the sudo command. For details, follow the Docker steps: Post-installation steps for Linux.
  • git 2.33.0+

Additional software:

Proxy setup:

  • Be sure to set your proxies correctly. Some environments require network proxies for Docker operations (e.g. docker pull, docker push, docker run, and so on).
  • For http_proxy/HTTP_PROXY and https_proxy/HTTPS_PROXY, you must test they are actually working. Also note that the no_proxy/NO_PROXY list MUST NOT contain spaces between the addresses.
  • After you set your proxies, you can enter some commands to verify your proxies.
   docker pull hello-world

Build and Install the Tool

Get the code from the repository:

  • (For internal users only) Get the code from the git repo:

    git clone https://github.com/intel/edge-conductor.git edge-conductor

  • Unzip the code package, for example, edge_conductor_<version>.tar.gz:

    tar zxvf edge_conductor_<version>.tar.gz
ln -sf edge_conductor_<version> edge-conductor

Build the code:

cd edge-conductor
make

If make is successful, no ERROR messages are displayed on the console.

You will see output similar to the following.

make -C api/schemas
make -C api/proto build
go mod tidy
go run build/plugingenerator.go
go vet ./pkg/... ./cmd/...
Going to format and build code.
go build -v -o _workspace/bin/conductor cmd/conductor/main.go

The make command does the following:

  • Creates the _workspace folder.
  • Generates binary files in the _workspace folder.
  • Copies configuration files to the _workspace folder.

Change to the _workspace folder:

cd _workspace

The file structure generated under the _workspace folder is:

_workspace/
├── bin
├── config
├── conductor -> bin/conductor
├── kubectl -> bin/kubectl
├── services
└── workflow
