RKE can be built using the make command, and will use the scripts in the scripts directory as subcommands. The default subcommand is ci and will use scripts/ci. Cross compiling can be enabled by setting the environment variable CROSS=1. The compiled binaries can be found in the build/bin directory. Dependencies are managed by Go modules and can be found in go.mod.
RKE now fetches data.json from https://github.com/rancher/kontainer-driver-metadata. To fetch data.json and compile it in rke, run
go generate
# Change RANCHER_METADATA_URL to an external URL instead of using https://releases.rancher.com/kontainer-driver-metadata/dev-v2.4/data.json by default
RANCHER_METADATA_URL=${URL} go generate
# Or load it from local file
RANCHER_METATDATA_URL=./local/data.json go generate
# Compile RKE
makeTo specify RANCHER_METADATA_URL in runtime, populate the environment variable when running rke CLI. For example:
RANCHER_METADATA_URL=${URL} rke [commands] [options]
RANCHER_METADATA_URL=${./local/data.json} rke [commands] [options]RANCHER_METADATA_URL defaults to https://releases.rancher.com/kontainer-driver-metadata/dev-v2.4/data.json.
