Building Milvus with Docker

Building Milvus is easy if you take advantage of the containerized build environment. This document will help guide you through understanding this build process.

  1. Docker, using one of the following configurations:
  • macOS Install Docker for Mac. See installation instructions here. Note: You will want to set the Docker VM to have at least 2 vCPU and 8GB of initial memory or building will likely fail.
  • Linux with local Docker Install Docker according to the instructions for your OS.
  • Windows with Docker Desktop WSL2 backend Install Docker according to the instructions. Be sure to store your sources in the local Linux file system, not the Windows remote mount at /mnt/c.
  1. Optional Google Cloud SDK

You must install and configure Google Cloud SDK if you want to upload your release to Google Cloud Storage and may safely omit this otherwise.

Overview

While it is possible to build Milvus using a local golang installation, we have a build process that runs in a Docker container. This simplifies initial set up and provides for a very consistent build and test environment.

Before You Begin

Before building Milvus, you must check the eligibility of your Docker, Docker Compose, and hardware in line with Milvus' requirements.

Check your Docker and Docker Compose version
  • Docker version 19.03 or higher is required.
  • Follow Get Docker to install Docker on your system.
  • Docker Compose version 1.25.1 or higher is required.
  • See Install Docker Compose for Docker Compose installation guide.
    Check whether your CPU supports SIMD extension instruction set

    Milvus' computing operations depend on CPUs support for SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) extension instruction set. Whether your CPU supports SIMD extension instruction set is crucial to index building and vector similarity search within Milvus. Ensure that your CPU supports at least one of the following SIMD instruction sets:

    • SSE4.2
    • AVX
    • AVX2
    • AVX512

    Run the lscpu command to check if your CPU supports the SIMD instruction sets mentioned above:

    $ lscpu | grep -e sse4_2 -e avx -e avx2 -e avx512
    

    Key scripts

    The following scripts are found in the build/ directory. Note that all scripts must be run from the Milvus root directory.

    • build/builder.sh: Run a command in a build docker container. Common invocations:
      • build/builder.sh make Build just linux binaries in the container. Pass options and packages as necessary.
      • build/builder.sh make verifiers: Run all pre-submission verification check
      • build/builder.sh make unittest: Run all unit tests
      • build/builder.sh make clean: Clean up all the generated files

    You can specify different OS for builder by setting OS_NAME which defaults to ubuntu18.04. Valid OS are ubuntu18.04, centos7.

    To specify centos7 builder, use these command:

    export OS_NAME=centos7
    build/builder.sh make
    

    Dev Containers

    Users can also get into the dev containers for development.

    Enter root path of Milvus project on your host machine, execute the following commands:

    $ ./scripts/devcontainer.sh up        # start Dev container
    
    Creating network "milvus-distributed_milvus" with the default driver
    Creating milvus_jaeger_1 ... done
    Creating milvus_minio_1  ... done
    Creating milvus_pulsar_1 ... done
    Creating milvus_etcd_1   ... done
    Creating milvus_ubuntu_1 ... done
    

    Check running state of Dev Container:

    $ docker-compose -f docker-compose-devcontainer.yml ps
    
          Name                    Command                  State                                      Ports
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    milvus_builder_1   /tini -- autouseradd --use ...   Up
    milvus_etcd_1      etcd -advertise-client-url ...   Up             2379/tcp, 2380/tcp
    milvus_jaeger_1    /go/bin/all-in-one-linux         Up             14250/tcp, 14268/tcp, 16686/tcp, 5775/udp, 5778/tcp, 6831/udp,
                                                                       6832/udp
    milvus_minio_1     /usr/bin/docker-entrypoint ...   Up (healthy)   9000/tcp
    milvus_pulsar_1    bin/pulsar standalone --no ...   Up
    

    milvus_builder_1 is the docker of milvus dev, other containers are used as unit test dependencies. you can run compilation and unit test inside the container, enter it:

    docker exec -ti milvus_builder_1 bash
    

    Compile the project and run unit test, see details at the DEVELOPMENT.md

    make all
    
    make unittest
    

    Stop Dev Container

    ./scripts/devcontainer.sh down        # close Dev container
    

    E2E Tests

    Milvus uses Python SDK to write test cases to verify the correctness of Milvus functions. Before run E2E tests, you need a running Milvus:

    $ cd deployments/docker/dev
    $ docker-compose up -d
    $ cd ../../../
    # Running Milvus
    $ build/builder.sh /bin/bash -c "export ROCKSMQ_PATH='/tmp/milvus/rdb_data' && ./scripts/start_standalone.sh && cat"
    
    # or
    
    $ build/builder.sh /bin/bash -c "./scripts/start_cluster.sh && cat"
    

    To run E2E tests, use these command:

    MILVUS_SERVICE_IP=$(docker inspect -f '{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' $(docker-compose ps -q builder))
    cd tests/docker
    docker-compose run --rm pytest /bin/bash -c "pytest --host ${MILVUS_SERVICE_IP}"
    

    Basic Flow

    The scripts directly under build/ are used to build and test. They will ensure that the builder Docker image is built (based on [build/docker/builder] ) and then execute the appropriate command in that container. These scripts will both ensure that the right data is cached from run to run for incremental builds and will copy the results back out of the container. You can specify a different registry/name for builder by setting IMAGE_REPO which defaults to milvusdb.

    The builder.sh is execute by first creating a “docker volume“ directory in .docker/. The .docker/ directory is used to cache the third-party package and compiler cache data. It speeds up recompilation by caching previous compilations and detecting when the same compilation is being done again.

    Debug on Host Machine

    Integrate vscode with docker

    The working principle is as follows: mount the local file system to the workspace inside the container, or copy it to the container. The extension of vs code is installed inside the container and runs in it, so that the vs Code of the host can fully access the tools, platforms and file systems inside the container. This means that you just need to connect to different containers to switch the entire development environment seamlessly.

    image

    Taking the Milvus project as an example, there is a file named .devcontainer.json in the root directory of the project. This file describes how vs code accesses (or creates) a development container environment, and defines the container environment, working directory, extension tool set, etc.

    • The steps to configure the development environment are as follows:

    Start VS Codein the command panel ( F1 ) input “Remote-Containers: Open Folder in Container” , then select the project folder which contains devcontainer.json file.

    or click right-bottom corner button > < , choose “Remote-Containers: Open Folder in Container”then select the project folder which contains devcontainer.json file.

    image

    VS Code begin load and construct Devcontainer, the progress bar display the construction state.

    image

    After Construction, VS Code automatically connects to the container. Now you can code and debug in VS Code, just like developing in your host machine.

    You can also use terminal of VS Code to enter the Dev container to do something. Choose Terminal >> New Terminal in the navigation bar, then you can enter the container:

    image

    Modify vscode go setups if necessary, the setting path is code -> preference -> settings

    "go.testFlags": ["-v"]  //if you want say detailed output when running unit test
    "go.coverOnSave": true  //if you want to show coverage
    "go.lintOnSave": true   //if you want to auto golint and check code style
    

    image

    Enable Code debug by remot debugging with dlv, you can enable debugging by run the following command inside your docker:

    cp /go/bin/dlv /go/bin/dlv-dap
    

    Integrate goland with docker
