# Calico Networking for CNI

<blockquote>
Note that the documentation in this repo is targeted at Calico contributors.
<h1>Documentation for Calico users is here:<br><a href="http://docs.projectcalico.org">http://docs.projectcalico.org</a></h1>
</blockquote>

This repository contains the Project Calico network plugin for CNI.  This plugin allows you to use Calico networking for
any orchestrator which makes use of the [CNI networking specification][cni specification].

This repository includes a top-level CNI networking plugin, as well as a CNI IPAM plugin which makes use of Calico IPAM.

To learn more about CNI, visit the [containernetworking/cni][cni] repo.

## Building the plugins and running tests
To build the Calico Networking Plugin for CNI locally, clone this repository and run `make`.  This will build both CNI plugin binaries and run the tests. This requires a recent version of Docker.

- To just build the binaries, with no tests, run `make build`. This will produce `bin/$ARCH/calico` and `bin/$ARCH/calico-ipam`.
- To only run the tests, simply run `make test`.
- To run a non-containerized build (i.e. not inside a docker container) you need to have Go 1.7+ and glide installed.
