Spike runs on commodity Linux servers and is based on Google's network load balancer, Maglev.
- Make sure that your go workspace
is set up properly, and that the spike repository is in
$GOPATH/src/github.com/sipb/spike. - Clone and build the snabb repository. (This is unlikely to work on non-Linux operating systems.)
- Run
go get github.com/dchest/siphash github.com/stretchr/testify gopkg.in/yaml.v2. - Run
make.
It should now be possible to run the health check demo (bin/demo), as
well as the snabb integration demo (bin/runspike). runspike should
be run as root and requires two environment variables, SNABB set to
the path to the snabb executable and SPIKE set to the path to the
folder, so you might run something like:
sudo env SNABB=/path/to/snabb SPIKE=/path/to/spike bin/runspike
You can run the tests with make test.
