In order to build Gru you need Go version 1.7 or later.
Building Gru is as easy as executing the commands below.
$ git clone https://github.com/dnaeon/gru
$ cd gru
$ makeThe optional requirements listed below are needed if you need to orchestrate remote systems. They are not required if you use Gru in stand-alone mode.
etcd is used for discovery of
minions and communication between the minions and clients, so
in order to orchestrate remote minions you need to make sure that you
have etcd up and running, so that remote minions can connect to it.
For more information about installing and configuring etcd, please refer to the official etcd documentation.
Git is used for syncing code and data files to the remote minions, so make sure that you have Git installed as well.
You can enable shell autocompletion by sourcing the correct file from the contrib/autocomplete directory for your shell.
For instance to enable bash autocompletion on an Arch Linux system, you would do.
$ sudo cp contrib/autocomplete/bash_autocomplete /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/gructlNote that you will need to install the bash-completion
package, if you don't have it installed already.
You can run the tests by executing the command below.
$ make test
