## Installing required dependencies

The dependency [libgit2](https://libgit2.org/) needs to be installed to be able
to run source-controller or its test-suite locally (not in a container).
There are a number of dependencies required to be able to run the controller and its test suite locally:

- [Install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install)
- [Install Kustomize](https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/kustomize/installation/)
- [Install Docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/)
- (Optional) [Install Kubebuilder](https://book.kubebuilder.io/quick-start.html#installation)

The dependency [libgit2](https://libgit2.org/) also needs to be installed to be able
to run `source-controller` or its test-suite locally (not in a container).

In case this dependency is not present on your system (at the expected
version), the first invocation of a `make` target that requires the
dependency will attempt to compile it locally to `hack/libgit2`. For this build
to succeed; CMake, Docker, OpenSSL 1.1 and LibSSH2 must be present on the system.
to succeed ensure the following dependencies are present on your system:
- [CMake](https://cmake.org/download/)
- [OpenSSL 1.1](https://www.openssl.org/source/)
- [LibSSH2](https://www.libssh2.org/)
- [pkg-config](https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config/)

Triggering a manual build of the dependency is possible as well by running
`make libgit2`. To enforce the build, for example if your system dependencies
match but are not linked in a compatible way, append `LIBGIT2_FORCE=1` to the
`make` command.

Follow the instructions below to install these dependencies to your system.

followed using any other package manager. Some distributions may have slight
variation of package names (e.g. `apt install -y cmake openssl libssh2-1-dev`).

## How to run the test suite

The test suite depends on [envtest] being installed. For minimum required
version refer to the variable `ENVTEST_BIN_VERSION` in the [Makefile](./Makefile).
In addition to the above, the following dependencies are also used by some of the `make` targets:

You can run the unit tests by simply doing:
- `controller-gen` (v0.7.0)
- `gen-crd-api-reference-docs` (v0.3.0)
- `setup-envtest` (latest)

```bash
make test
```

If any of the above dependencies are not present on your system, the first invocation of a `make` target that requires them will install them.

## How to run the test suite

## How to run the controller locally
Prerequisites:
* Go >= 1.17

Install flux on your test cluster:
You can run the test suite by simply doing

```sh
flux install
make test
```

Scale the in-cluster controller to zero:
## How to run the controller locally

Install the controller's CRDs on your test cluster:

```sh
kubectl -n flux-system scale deployment/source-controller --replicas=0
make install
```

If you get the following error when building the docker container:
```
Multiple platforms feature is currently not supported for docker driver.
Please switch to a different driver (eg. "docker buildx create --use")
```

you may need to create and switch to a new builder that supports multiple platforms:

```sh
docker buildx create --use
```

### Deploying into a cluster

Deploy `source-controller` into the cluster that is configured in the local kubeconfig file (i.e. `~/.kube/config`):

```sh
make dev-deploy
make deploy
```
