Note: cAdvisor only builds on Linux since it uses Linux-only APIs.
cAdvisor is written in the Go programming language. If you haven't set up a Go development environment, please follow these instructions to install go tool and set up GOPATH. Note that the version of Go in package repositories of some operating systems is outdated, so please download the latest version.
Note: cAdvisor requires Go 1.6 to build.
After setting up Go, you should be able to go get cAdvisor as expected (we use -d to only download):
$ go get -d github.com/Brain-Gamer/cadvisor
At this point you can build cAdvisor from the source folder:
$GOPATH/src/github.com/Brain-Gamer/cadvisor $ make build
