[pve-devel] Setup PVE Development Environment

[Alexandre DERUMIER]

Hi,

you can build all repos from proxmox git if you want.

but, the more simple way, if you need only to build pve-common,

is to update your proxmox setup to pvetest repo,

like this you'll have almost all last package,and maybe 
you'll only need to build last recents packages.

the main packages are 

pve-common
pve-access-control
pve-storage  (to manage server)
qemu-server (to manage qemu vms,...)
pve-manager (the web interface)
lxc (to manage ct)


you can check build dependencies in debian/control in each repo,
so you should be able to find the correct build order like this.


Hope it's helping.

Objet: [pve-devel] Setup PVE Development Environment

Hello, 

I want to contribute to the Proxmox project and I'm using a mailing for 
the first time ever, so hopefully I'm doing right :) 

I have already read the following sites: 
- https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Developer_Documentation 
- 
https://git.proxmox.com/?p=pve-common.git;a=blob_plain;f=README.dev;hb=HEAD 

My Virtualbox with Debian Stretch and Proxmox is woking, but I'm stuck 
at the chapter 'Compile PVE packages from Source' as it's saying 'You 
currently need the following packages', but that seems to be wrong: 

pve-common.git 
libpve-http-server-perl.git 
libpve-apiclient-perl.git 
pve-docs.git 
pve-cluster.git 
pve-access-control.git 
pve-storage.git 
pve-guest-common.git 
pve-firewall.git 
pve-qemu-kvm.git 
qemu-server.git 
vncterm.git 
spiceterm.git 
#vzquota.git 
#vzctl.git 
#fence-agents-pve.git 
#resource-agents-pve.git 
extjs.git 
pve-manager.git 
#pve-kernel-3.10.0.git 
#libiscsi.git 
#gfs2-utils.git 
ksm-control-daemon.git 
pve-container.git 
pve-kernel.git 

When taking a look at https://git.proxmox.com/ I can see that there are 
way more git repositories and some other repositories like 
'libpve-http-server-perl.git' don't even exist. So I need your help: 
Which repositories do I need and in what order do I need to build them? 

I'm already working on a patch for the site 
https://git.proxmox.com/?p=pve-common.git;a=blob_plain;f=README.dev;hb=HEAD 
and I want to provide this one maybe this week. I have already spent 
some time to figure it out and need the repositories as the last piece :) 

Thanks for your help! 

Regards, 
Martin
