h1. Hacking Keep

{{toc}}

h2. Source tree layout

The Keep storage server source code is in @/services/keepstore@. Proxy server is in @/services/keepproxy@.

<pre>

cd

git clone git://git.curoverse.com/arvados.git

ls arvados/services/keep*

</pre>

*Note:* Clone @git@git.curoverse.com:arvados.git@ instead if you plan to push directly to git.curoverse.com.

h2. Install build-prerequisites

Install Go. See http://golang.org/doc/install or try this short cut:

<pre>

wget https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.3.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz

sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.3.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz

cd /usr/local/bin

sudo ln -s ../go/bin/* .

</pre>

(Check https://code.google.com/p/go/downloads/list for other platforms and newer versions.)

h2. Set up GOPATH

<pre>

export GOPATH=~/gocode

mkdir -p $GOPATH

</pre>

h2. Tell Go to use your local copy

(Instead of automatically fetching master from the git repository)

<pre>

mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/git.curoverse.com

ln -s ~/arvados $GOPATH/src/git.curoverse.com/arvados.git

</pre>

h2. Run test suite

<pre>

go test git.curoverse.com/arvados.git/services/keepstore

</pre>

You should see something like this:

<pre>

ok      git.curoverse.com/arvados.git/services/keepstore        0.015s

</pre>
