How to install the KCIDB package |
KCIDB requires Python v3.9 or later.
To install the package for the current user, run this command:
pip3 install --user <SOURCE>
Where <SOURCE> is the location of the package source, e.g. a git repo:
pip3 install --user git+https://github.com/kernelci/kcidb.git
or a directory path:
pip3 install --user .
In any case, make sure your PATH includes the ~/.local/bin directory, e.g.
with:
export PATH="$PATH":~/.local/bin
Before you execute any of the tools make sure you have the path to your Google
Cloud credentials stored in the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS variable.
E.g.:
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=~/.credentials.json
If you're representing a submitting CI system accessing the KCIDB service, you will get your credentials from us. Otherwise you will need to create a service account in your Google Cloud project, and download its key file to act as the credentials.
