Compiling

Compiling SkyWalking BanyanDB

Follow these steps to compile the project.

Step 1: Generate protobuf and mock code

Run make generate first. This regenerates .pb.go files from .proto definitions and mock files via mockgen.

This step is required whenever:

• Proto files (.proto) have been added or modified
• Go interfaces used by mockgen have changed

If generate fails, check:

• protoc and Go protobuf plugins are installed
• Proto file syntax is valid
• Interface signatures match mock expectations

Step 2: Build all binaries

Run make build to compile all project components: ui, banyand, bydbctl, mcp, fodc/agent, fodc/proxy.

Binaries are output to each component's build/bin/dev/ directory.
