Compile

1. Build with the Official Image

To isolate the developer’s local environment and simplify the build process, we provide a containerized build method. You can directly use docker build to produce an image containing the core collector huatuo-bamai, BPF objects, tools, and more. Run the following in the project root directory:

docker build --network host -t huatuo/huatuo-bamai:latest .

2. Build a Custom Image

Dockerfile.dev:

FROM golang:1.23.0-alpine AS base
# Speed up Alpine package installation if needed
# RUN sed -i 's/dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/mirrors.aliyun.com/g' /etc/apk/repositories
RUN apk add --no-cache \
                make \
                clang15 \
                libbpf-dev \
                bpftool \
                curl \
                git

ENV PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/llvm15/bin

# build huatuo components
FROM base AS build
ARG BUILD_PATH=${BUILD_PATH:-/go/huatuo-bamai}
ARG RUN_PATH=${RUN_PATH:-/home/huatuo-bamai}
WORKDIR ${BUILD_PATH}

2.1 Build the Dev Image

docker build --network host -t huatuo/huatuo-bamai-dev:latest -f ./Dockerfile.dev .

2.2 Run the Dev Container

docker run -it --privileged --cgroupns=host --network=host \
  -v /path/to/huatuo:/go/huatuo-bamai \
  huatuo/huatuo-bamai-dev:latest sh

2.3 Compile Inside the Container

Run:

make

Once the build completes, all artifacts are generated under ./_output.

3. Build on a Physical Machine or VM

The collector depends on the following tools. Install them based on your local environment:

• make
• git
• clang15
• libbpf
• bpftool
• curl

Due to significant differences across local environments, build issues may occur.
To avoid environment inconsistencies and simplify troubleshooting, we strongly recommend using the Docker build approach whenever possible.
