This is the development branch for Caddy 2.
|
||||
This is the development branch for Caddy 2, the web server of the Go community.
|
||||
|
||||
**Caddy 2 is production-ready, but there may be breaking changes before the stable 2.0 release.** Please test it and deploy it as much as you are able, and submit your feedback!
|
||||
|
||||
**Caddy 2 is the web server of the Go community.** We are looking for maintainers to represent the community! Please become involved with issues, PRs, [our forum](https://caddy.community), sharing on social media, etc.

## Build from source
|
||||
|
||||
_**Note:** These steps [will not embed proper version information](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/29228). For that, please follow the instructions below for building with plugins (you do not have to add any plugins)._
|
||||
|
||||
Requirements:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Go 1.14 or newer](https://golang.org/dl/)
|
||||
- Do NOT disable [Go modules](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules) (`export GO111MODULE=auto`)
|
||||
|
||||
Download the `v2` source code:
|
||||
- Do NOT disable [Go modules](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules) (`export GO111MODULE=on`)
|
||||
|
||||
### For development
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ git clone -b v2 "https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy.git"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Build:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ cd caddy/cmd/caddy/
|
||||
$ go build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
That will put a `caddy(.exe)` binary into the current directory.
|
||||
_**Note:** Those steps [will not embed proper version information](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/29228). For that, please follow the instructions below._
|
||||
|
||||
If you encounter any Go-module-related errors, try clearing your Go module cache (`$GOPATH/pkg/mod`) or Go package cache (`$GOPATH/pkg`) and read [the Go wiki page about modules for help](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules). If you have issues with Go modules, please consult the Go community for help. But if there is an actual error in Caddy, please report it to us.
|
||||
|
||||
### Building with plugins and/or version information
|
||||
|
||||
Caddy is extensible with plugins. Plugins are added at compile-time, so all Caddy binaries are static (self-contained) and portable.
|
||||
|
||||
Instructions for doing this are also given in comments in [cmd/caddy/main.go](https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/blob/v2/cmd/caddy/main.go) which you can copy and use as a template.
|
||||
### With version information and/or plugins
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create a new folder: `mkdir caddy`
|
||||
2. Change into it: `cd caddy`
|
||||
3. Copy [Caddy's main.go](https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/blob/v2/cmd/caddy/main.go) into the empty folder. Add imports for any plugins you want to include.
|
||||
4. Run: `go mod init caddy`
|
||||
5. Run: `go get github.com/caddyserver/caddy/v2@TAG` replacing `TAG` with the latest v2 tag. (Won't be necessary after stable 2.0 release.)
|
||||
6. Run: `go build`
|
||||
|
||||
Congrats, you now have a custom Caddy build with proper version information!
|
||||
3. Copy [Caddy's main.go](https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/blob/v2/cmd/caddy/main.go) into the empty folder. Add imports for any custom plugins you want to add.
|
||||
4. Initialize a Go module: `go mod init caddy`
|
||||
5. Pin Caddy version: `go get github.com/caddyserver/caddy/v2@TAG` replacing `TAG` with a git tag or commit.
|
||||
6. Compile: `go build`
