The files in these directories constitute the continuous builder:
app/: a.k.a the "dashboard"; the App Engine code that runs http://build.golang.org/
cmd/:
buildlet/: HTTP server that runs on a VM and is told what to write to disk
and what command to run. This is cross-compiled to different architectures
and is the first program run when a builder VM comes up. It then
is contacted by the coordinator to do a build. Not all builders use
the buildlet (at least not yet).
builder/: gobuilder, a Go continuous build client. The original Go builder program.
coordinator/: daemon that runs on CoreOS on Google Compute Engine and manages
builds using Docker containers and/or VMs as needed.
retrybuilds/: a Go client program to delete build results from the dashboard (app)
upload/: a Go program to upload to Google Cloud Storage. used by Makefiles elsewhere.
watcher/: a daemon that watches for new commits to the Go repository and
its sub-repositories, and notifies the dashboard of those commits.
env/: configuration files describing the environment of builders and related
binaries. Many builders are still configured ad-hoc, without a hermetic
environment.
types/: a Go package contain common types used by other pieces.
If you wish to run a Go builder, please email golang-dev@googlegroups.com first.
There is documentation at https://golang.org/wiki/DashboardBuilders but
depending on the type of builder, we may want to run it ourselves, after you
prepare an environment description (resulting in a VM image) of it. See the env
directory.
