govpp is a go binding for the vpp api
This repo provides the go binding for a version of vpp (currently vpp 20.09)
import "github.com/edwarnicke/govpp/binapi"
This repo also provides minimal docker containers for running vpp:
If you want a version of VPP, you can fork this repo and add it yourself. Because things are very heavily patterned and generated, its really quite easy:
- Change default value for ARG VPP_VERSION in Dockerfile to the vpp tag or commit id you want to build.
go generate ./...
- Add a GHCR_TOKEN secret to your fork containing a PAT allowing you to push to your Github Container Registry
- Push a PR to your fork and merge it. This will push the vpp and vpp-dbg images to your repo.
If you want to add patches to vpp simply add them to the patch/ directory.
Change the version of govpp in the go.mod file
