Generating ProtoBuf
Here you will learn how to generate Proto buffers for the node agent
Prerequisites
protoc-gen-go
The simplest way to install protoc-gen-go is to run
go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/protoc-gen-go
The compiler plugin, protoc-gen-go, will be installed in $GOPATH/bin unless $GOBIN is set. It must be in your $PATH for the protocol compiler, protoc, to find it.
additional steps for building
If when calling protoc you get "File not found" errors on resolving imports
go get github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf
Will download the source for protobuf and it should resolve the problems
Running gen_proto.sh
Note: make sure you use GOOS="linux" when you get the protoc-gen-go tool, otherwise the Windows version will be downloaded and it will be incompatible with our gen scripts.
chmod +x ./gen_proto.sh
./gen_proto.sh
You should now see some *.pb.go files in the directory
