Development

This document details how to get started contributing to the project. This includes building and testing the core, templates and how to update them, and usage of the optional integration testing tooling.

Building

To build the core project, run make from the repository root. This will result in a func binary being generated. Run make help for additional targets and ./func help for usage-centric documentation.

To remove built artifacts, use make clean.

Build affecting environment variables

  • FUNC_REPO_REF affects which github repo will be used to fetch tekton tasks for on cluster build. Default: knative/func.
  • FUNC_REPO_BRANCH_REF affects which github branch will be used to fetch tekton tasks for on cluster build. Default: main.

Testing

To run core unit tests, use make test.

Linting

Before submitting code in a Pull Request, please run make check and resolve any errors. This creates and runs bin/golangci-lint. For settings such as configured linters, see .golangci.yaml.

Templates

When a new Function is created, a few files are placed in the new Function's directory. This includes source code illustrating a minimal Function of the requested type (language runtime and function signature) as well as Function metadata in a func.yaml file.

The source of these templates is ./templates; a directory subdivided by language and template name. For example, the Go HTTP template is located in ./templates/go/http. The client library and CLI are self-contained by encoding this directory as a ZIP byte array in the ./generate/zz_filesystem_generated.go file. Therefore, any updates to templates requires re-generating this file.

When changes are made to files in the ./templates directory, regenerate ./generate/zz_filesystem_generated.go by running make generate/zz_filesystem_generated.go. It is also important to run the unit tests of the template modified. For example, to run the unit tests of the Go templates, use make test-go. For a list of available make targets, use make help.

Tip: Put the following script in your .git/hooks/pre-commit file.

#!/bin/sh

if git diff-index --cached --name-only HEAD | grep -i "^templates/.*$" >/dev/null; then
  if ! git diff-index --cached --name-only HEAD | grep -i "^generate/zz_filesystem_generated.go$" >/dev/null; then
    echo "WARNING: You are about to commit changes to the templates directory," \
      "but the generated generate/zz_filesystem_generated.go file is not staged."
    echo "If this is intentional use '--no-verify' flag."
    exit 1
  fi
fi

if git diff-index --cached --name-only HEAD | grep -i "^generate/zz_filesystem_generated.go$" >/dev/null; then
  UNVERSIONED=$(git ls-files --others --exclude-standard --ignored -- templates/ 2>/dev/null)
  if [ -n "$UNVERSIONED" ]; then
    echo "WARNING: You are about to commit generate/zz_filesystem_generated.go," \
      "but the templates directory contains some unversioned files" \
      "that may be unintentionally included in generate/zz_filesystem_generated.go"
    for f in $UNVERSIONED; do
      echo "    $f"
    done
    echo "If this is intentional use '--no-verify' flag."
    exit 1
  fi
fi

exit 0

Integration Testing

Integration tests are run automatically for all pull requests from within the GitHub Pull Request. This process includes creating and configuring a lightweight cluster.

If you would like to run integration tests prior to opening a pull request against origin, you can enable Actions in your fork of this repository and create a pull request to your own main branch.

If you would like to run integraiton tests locally, or would like to use the CLI / Client Library directly against a local cluster, the cluster allocation script can be used locally as well, by following the steps below.

Prerequisites

The cluster allocation script requires jq, yq, kubectl, kind, docker and python.

Please note that the version of yq required is installed via pip3 install yq or brew install python-yq

Allocate

Allocate a new local cluster by running hack/allocate.sh.

Registry

The allocation script sets up a local container registry and connects it to the cluster. This registry must be set as trusted and its address entered in the local hosts file. This is a one-time configuration and on Linux can be accomplished by running hack/registry.sh.

On other systems, add 127.0.0.1 kind-registry to your local hosts file and "insecure-registries" = ["kind-registry:50000"] to your docker daemon config (docker/daemon.json).

Using the Cluster

Once the cluster has been allocated, the func CLI (or client library) will automatically use it (see the Kubeconfig Docs for more)

Functions will be available at the address [Function Name].default.127.0.0.1.sslip.io

To run integration tests, use make test-integration.

Cleanup

The cluster and registry can be deleted by running hack/delete.sh
