The files required to build and run Malcolm are available on its [GitHub page]({{ site.github.repository_url }}/tree/{{ site.github.build_revision }}). Malcolm’s source-code is released under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0 (see [LICENSE.txt]({{ site.github.repository_url }}/blob/{{ site.github.build_revision }}/LICENSE.txt) and [NOTICE.txt]({{ site.github.repository_url }}/blob/{{ site.github.build_revision }}/NOTICE.txt) for the terms of its release).
The build.sh script can build Malcolm’s Docker images from scratch. See Building from source for more information.
The scripts to control Malcolm require Python 3. The install.py script requires the dotenv, requests and PyYAML modules for Python 3, and will make use of the pythondialog module for user interaction (on Linux) if it is available.
You must run auth_setup prior to pulling Malcolm’s Docker images. You should also ensure your system configuration and Malcolm settings are tuned by running ./scripts/install.py and ./scripts/configure (see Malcolm Configuration).
Malcolm’s Docker images are periodically built and hosted on GitHub. If you already have Docker and Docker Compose, these prebuilt images can be pulled by navigating into the Malcolm directory (containing the docker-compose.yml file) and running docker compose --profile malcolm pull like this:
$ docker compose --profile malcolm pull
