This method only works with linux (x86_64 and aarch64 ) and darwin (x86_64) systems. The bootstrap procedure requires that you have Go 1.6 or newer and Git installed and on your PATH. Below command will create checkout in new folder called fuchsia.
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fuchsia-mirror/jiri/master/scripts/bootstrap_jiri | bash -s fuchsia cd fuchsia export PATH=`pwd`/.jiri_root/bin:$PATH jiri import jiri https://fuchsia.googlesource.com/manifest jiri update
Create a root folder called fuchsia, then use git to manually clone each of the projects mentioned in this manifest, put them in correct paths and checkout required revisions. HEAD should be on origin/master where no revision is mentioned in manifest.
Set GOPATH to fuchsia/go, cd into fuchsia/go/src/fuchsia.googlesource.com/jiri and run
./scripts/build.sh
The above command should build jiri and put it into your jiri repo root.
To run jiri's tests, run the following from the fuchsia/go directory:
export GOPATH=$(pwd) go test $(go list fuchsia.googlesource.com/jiri/... 2>/dev/null | grep -v /jiri/vendor/)
(The use of grep here excludes tests from packages below src/fuchsia.googlesource.com/jiri/vendor/ which don't pass.)
If build complains about undefined http_parser_* functions, please remove http_parser from your library path.
