### Using godep
Here is a quick summary of `godep`. `godep` helps manage third party dependencies by copying known versions into Godeps/_workspace. You can use `godep` in three ways:
Here is a quick summary of `godep`. `godep` helps manage third party dependencies by copying known versions into Godeps/_workspace. Here is the recommended way to set up your system. There are other ways that may work, but this is the easiest one I know of.
1. Use `godep` to call your `go` commands. For example: `godep go test ./...`
2. Use `godep` to modify your `$GOPATH` so that other tools know where to find the dependencies. Specifically: `export GOPATH=$GOPATH:$(godep path)`
3. Use `godep` to copy the saved versions of packages into your `$GOPATH`. This is done with `godep restore`.
1. Devote a directory to this endeavor:
We recommend using options #1 or #2.
```
export KPATH=$HOME/code/kubernetes
mkdir -p $KPATH/src/github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes
cd $KPATH/src/github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes
git clone https://path/to/your/fork .
# Or copy your existing local repo here. IMPORTANT: making a symlink doesn't work.
```
2. Set up your GOPATH.
```
# Option A: this will let your builds see packages that exist elsewhere on your system.
export GOPATH=$KPATH:$GOPATH
# Option B: This will *not* let your local builds see packages that exist elsewhere on your system.
export GOPATH=$KPATH
# Option B is recommended if you're going to mess with the dependencies.
```
3. Populate your new $GOPATH.
```
cd $KPATH/src/github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes
godep restore
```
4. To add a dependency, you can do ```go get path/to/dependency``` as usual.
5. To package up a dependency, do
```
cd $KPATH/src/github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes
godep save ./...
# Sanity check that your Godeps.json file is ok by re-restoring:
godep restore
```
I (lavalamp) have sometimes found it expedient to manually fix the /Godeps/godeps.json file to minimize the changes.
Please send dependency updates in separate commits within your PR, for easier reviewing.
