This directory contains code for the components that comprise the Kubeflow
Pipelines backend.
## Building & Testing
All components can be built using [Bazel](https://bazel.build/). To build
everything under backend, run: `bazel build --action_env=PATH
--define=grpc_no_ares=true //backend/...`
To run all tests: `bazel test --action_env=PATH --define=grpc_no_ares=true
//backend/...`
The API server itself can only be built/tested using Bazel. The following
commands target building and testing just the API server. `bazel build
--action_env=PATH --define=grpc_no_ares=true backend/src/apiserver/...` `bazel
test --action_env=PATH --define=grpc_no_ares=true backend/src/apiserver/...`
## Building APIServer Image using Remote Build Execution
If you are a dev in the Kubeflow Pipelines team, you can use
[Remote Build Execution Service](https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/alpha/remote-build-execution/)
to build the API Server image using Bazel with use of a shared cache for
speeding up the build. To do so, execute the following command:
```
./build_api_server.sh -i gcr.io/cloud-ml-pipelines-test/api-server:dev
```
## Building Go client library and swagger files
After making changes to proto files, the Go client libraries and swagger files
need to be regenerated and checked-in. The backend/api/generate_api.sh script
takes care of this.
## Updating BUILD files
As the backend is written in Go, the BUILD files can be updated automatically
using [Gazelle](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-gazelle). Whenever a Go file
is added or updated, run the following to ensure the BUILD files are updated as
well: `bazel run //:gazelle`
If a new external Go dependency is added, or an existing one has its version
bumped in the `go.mod` file, ensure the BUILD files pick this up by updating the
WORKSPACE go_repository rules using the following command: `bazel run
//:gazelle -- update-repos --from_file=go.mod`
