After running the command, the Image Creator binary will be located at ./toolkit/out/tools/imagecreator.

Run Image Creator specific tests

  1. Download the test RPM files and the tools tar file to create new image:

    ./toolkit/tools/internal/testutils/testrpms/download-test-utils.sh -t 3.0 -s true

  2. Run the tests:

    sudo go test -C ./toolkit/tools ./pkg/imagecreatorlib -args \
  --run-create-image-tests true

  3. To update go dependencies (direct and indirect) to minor or patch versions, run go get -u ./... then go mod tidy.
