Compiling the project requires generating protocol buffer files, generating some Go code for eBPF, and compiling Go code into a static binary.

We recommend using Docker to compile the project.

Run make celestial-make to build a container that has all the dependencies needed to compile the project.

You can use the pre-compiled gRPC/protocol buffer files or compile your own:

# compile all protofiles for python and go
docker run --platform linux/amd64 --rm -v $(pwd):/celestial celestial-make proto

Compile the host server with:

docker run --platfrom linux/amd64 --rm -v $(pwd):/celestial celestial-make celestial.bin

To manually compile and generate code, install the dependencies found in compile.Dockerfile. Then run make to compile.
