Compiling graylog from master fails with yarn error

I try to start development of a new Graylog plugin for OpenID Connect authentication/authorization but fail to get my development environment running properly.

Building Graylog from the current master (commit e8ee0fb1b08d3c26f637c021e27cc0206246e20c) fails:

I use graylog-project-cli exec "mvn compile -B" to compile the graylog sources. I’m on Debian GNU/Linux 10 if that matters.

Do I do something wrong or are the npm/yarn dependencies in a broken state currently?

Hello,

Here is a link that explains the steps to compile graylog:

@merouaneagar thanks for the link. I came to similar conclusions how to get a build environment before but tried to get it running from scratch, just to avoid own mistakes.

I followed the guide and got the same compilation errors mentioned above when running the Initial Build step of the README file. I continued and my freshly created plugin failed to build because of missing dependencies that have not been built from the graylog2-server tree in the initial build step:

unfortunatelly the Travis CI builds for Graylog2-server (master branch) and the graylog-plugin-auth-sso are failing too, so I assume this is not just a problem for me.

Hey @jandd,

I would love to help you getting your dev setup up and running. First thing, I think it would be a better idea to develop against the 3.1.2 tag of the server repo instead of master. Things are changing constantly on master and might break your build.

This alone would probably solve the issue you are seeing already, as the 3.1.2 artefacts are on sonatype. If you really want to develop against master, you have to run maven in the graylog-project directory, so it is able to resolve the snapshot dependencies from its module tree instead of looking them up on sonatype.

I hope this helps!

P.S.: We know that we really need to update our docs when it comes to the scripts/bootstrap-plugin script that we removed. Sorry for that!

Hi dennis,

how do you recover version 3.1.2
because I do not arrive with the following command:

…/graylog-project.linux bootstrap https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog-project.git --manifest=“manifests/3.1.2.json”
git clone https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog-project.git graylog-project
Cloning into ‘graylog-project’…
git checkout master
Already on ‘master’
Your branch is up to date with ‘origin/master’.
Unable to read manifest: open /home/agar/Documents/projects/graylog/3.1.2/graylog-project/manifests/3.1.2.json: no such file or directory

Merouane AGAR

Right now you would need to create a manifest on your own. For 3.1.2, it would look like this:

{
  "modules": [
    {
      "repository": "git@github.com:Graylog2/graylog2-server.git",
      "revision": "3.1.2",
      "server": true,
      "submodules": [
        {
          "path": "graylog2-server"
        },
        {
          "path": "graylog2-web-interface"
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "repository": "git@github.com:Graylog2/graylog-plugin-collector.git",
      "revision": "3.1.2",
      "assemblies": ["graylog"]
    },
    {
      "repository": "git@github.com:Graylog2/graylog-plugin-aws.git",
      "revision": "3.1.2",
      "assemblies": ["graylog"]
    },
    {
      "repository": "git@github.com:Graylog2/graylog-plugin-threatintel.git",
      "revision": "3.1.2",
      "assemblies": ["graylog"]
    }
  ]
}

thanks, it works now

Hello Dennis,

I encounter an error message in the web interface, can you tell me that I missed ?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Merouane AGAR

I can only guess, but I assume it is a CORS error. Can you try connecting to http://localhost:8080 (vs. http://127.0.0.1:8080) in your browser? it is a fine difference that only matters to CORS checks in your browser.

Hi Dennis,

Thanks for your help

I have practically the same result

Regards,
Merouane

Do you see anything in your browser’s JS console?

Yes ,

Hi Dennis,

I solved my problem, I forgot to run the server from the IDE
Thanks for your help

Hi @dennis,

I just found time to test your advice. Compiling from the 3.1.2 tag worked fine. I will continue my plugin development based on this graylog version.
