Build ONIE NOS Installer Image - amybuck/SONiC-NAS GitHub Wiki

This information describes how to build an Open Network Install Environment (ONIE)-compatible network operating system (NOS) installer image for network devices, and also build docker images running inside the NOS.

Prerequisites

1. Build environment — Use the Dockerfile (preferred) or Debian Jessie and manually install packages appearing in the Dockerfile.

2. Linux kernel with switch drivers — Build the Azure/sonic-linux-kernel project and copy the output .deb file into the ./deps directory.

3. initramfs-tools with loop device support — Run the script to build the .deb file into ./deps directory.

./get_deps.sh

4. Fetch the git submodule — If there is no files under ./docker-base, you must manually fetch the submodule.

git submodule update --init --recursive

Build NOS Installer Image

./build_debian USERNAME PASSWORD_ENCRYPTED && ./build_image.sh

The user name is 'admin' and the password is 'YourPaSsWoRd'.

./build_debian.sh "admin" "$(perl -e 'print crypt("YourPaSsWoRd", "salt"),"\n"')" && ./build_image.sh

The root is disabled, but the created user could sudo.

Build Docker Images

./build_docker.sh docker-sswsyncd
./build_docker.sh docker-database
./build_docker.sh docker-bgp
./build_docker.sh docker-snmp
./build_docker.sh docker-lldp
./build_docker.sh docker-basic_router

GitHub Workflow

We're following basic GitHub Flow. If you have no idea what we're talking about, check out GitHub's official guide. Note that merge is only performed by the repository maintainer.

Guide for performing commits:

  • Isolate each commit to one component/bugfix/issue/feature
  • Use a standard commit message format:
[component/folder touched]: Description intent of your changes

[List of changes]

For example:

swss-common: Stabilize the ConsumerTable

* Fixing autoreconf
* Fixing unit-tests by adding checkers and initialize the DB before start
* Adding the ability to select from multiple channels
* Health-Monitor - The idea of the patch is that if something went wrong with the notification channel,
  we will have the option to know about it (Query the LLEN table length).
