The single-nic IP migration path was fragile and caused connectivity
issues during setup. macvlan is now the only bridge strategy — always
creates spx-ext-{nic} on the WAN NIC. Removed --single-nic flag,
SingleNIC config/detection fields, and updated all docs.

## Overview
|
|
|
|
This guide builds Spinifex from source. For production deployments, the [binary installer](/docs/installing-spinifex) is recommended.
|
|
|
|
**Requirements:**
|
|
|
|
- Ubuntu 22.04+ / Debian 12+
|
|
- Go 1.26.1+
|
|
- GCC, make, pkg-config
|
|
- QEMU/KVM, OVN/Open vSwitch, AWS CLI v2
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
|
|
### Step 1. Install dependencies
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdir -p ~/Development/mulga && cd ~/Development/mulga
|
|
git clone https://github.com/mulgadc/spinifex.git
|
|
sudo make -C spinifex quickinstall
|
|
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 2. Clone and build
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd spinifex
|
|
./scripts/clone-deps.sh
|
|
./scripts/dev-setup.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Confirm `./bin/spx` exists.
|
|
|
|
### Step 3. Initialize
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./bin/spx admin init --region ap-southeast-2 --az ap-southeast-2a --node node1 --nodes 1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Save the admin credentials printed during init.
|
|
|
|
### Step 4. Trust the CA certificate
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo cp ~/spinifex/config/ca.pem /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/spinifex-ca.crt
|
|
sudo update-ca-certificates
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 5. Setup OVN
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./scripts/setup-ovn.sh --management --external-bridge --external-iface=enp0s3 --dhcp
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace `enp0s3` with your WAN interface.
|
|
|
|
### Step 6. Start services
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./scripts/start-dev.sh
|
|
export AWS_PROFILE=spinifex
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 7. Verify
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
aws ec2 describe-instance-types
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If this returns a list of available instance types, your installation is working.
|
|
|
|
**Congratulations! Spinifex is installed from source.**
|
|
|
|
Continue to [Setting Up Your Cluster](/docs/setting-up-your-cluster) to import an AMI, create a VPC, and launch your first instance.

## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Go not found in PATH
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### ./bin/spx missing after build
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./scripts/dev-setup.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### CA certificate not trusted
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo cp ~/spinifex/config/ca.pem /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/spinifex-ca.crt
|
|
sudo update-ca-certificates
|
|
```
