Building the ROCK

The steps outlined below are based on the assumption that you are building the ROCK with the latest LTS of Ubuntu.
If you are using another version of Ubuntu or another operating system, the process may be different. To avoid any issue with other operating systems you can simply build the image with multipass:

sudo snap install multipass
multipass launch 22.04 -n rock-dev
multipass shell rock-dev

Clone Repository

git clone https://github.com/canonical/charmed-kafka-rock.git
cd charmed-kafka-rock

Installing Prerequisites

sudo snap install rockcraft --edge --classic
sudo snap install docker
sudo snap install lxd
sudo snap install skopeo --edge --devmode

Configuring Prerequisites

sudo usermod -aG docker $USER 
sudo lxd init --auto

NOTE: You will need to open a new shell for the group change to take effect (i.e. su - $USER)
