Raw Blame History

Cloud Development

In the past, Kite's language analysis facilities ran on an AWS/Azure backend instead of the users machine. There are still several backend components including exposing the symbol API for serving web docs as well as servicing the web sandbox.

Vagrant

We use VMs for backend development to guarantee a consistent environment between development and production. To get this set up, first set up Vagrant

Once you have a shell in the virtual machine, the kiteco repo's working directory should be at:

$HOME/go/src/github.com/kiteco/kiteco

NOTE: This is a symlink to /kiteco, mounted as a NFS share in the Vagrantfile

All commands (make *, go build, etc) must be run from the full $HOME/go/src/github.com/kiteco/kiteco path (not a symlinked directory). From here, you may need to repeat some of the steps from the original dev setup, e.g:

# Install dependencies
make install-deps

Because user-node takes too many resources to load locally, there are test instances available on AWS/Azure for you to run/test your development changes to user-node. Please see https://kite.quip.com/Phk4AB8lLqh9 for a list of test instances; we no longer have per-developer test instances, so please notify others before deploying the backend or otherwise running resource intensive processes.

Once you have your test instance, you can deploy your local changes to it by running:

cd ~/go/src/github.com/kiteco/kiteco
./scripts/deploy_test.sh test-N.kite.com

Infrastructure

Our AWS infrastructure makes use of Terraform (http://www.terraform.io (http://www.terraform.io/)). Terraform helps us manage our AWS topology. Please do not modify this unless you know what you are doing :). Our terraform configuration files can be found in github.com/kiteco/kiteco/devops/terraform (http://github.com/kiteco/kiteco/devops/terraform).

We use Fabric to execute some commands on remote hosts (others are simply shell scripts that invoke SSH). The fabric scripts can be found at github.com/kiteco/kiteco/devops/fabric (http://github.com/kiteco/kiteco/devops/fabric).
