The easiest way to get an environment with all the appropriate tools is by means of the provided Docker config. This requires a recent version of docker ( 1.4.1 and higher are known to work ).
By using the mounted volumes feature of Docker this image will wrap itself around the directory from which it is started. So the files within the docker environment are actually the same as outsite.
A very valid way of working is by having your favourite IDE that has the project open and a commandline into the docker that has the exact right tools to do the full build.
Install Docker and run this command:
$ ./start-build-env.sh
First make sure Homebrew has been installed ( http://brew.sh/ )
$ brew install docker boot2docker
$ boot2docker init -m 4096
$ boot2docker start
$ $(boot2docker shellinit)
$ ./start-build-env.sh
The prompt which is then presented is located at a mounted version of the source tree and all required tools for testing and building have been installed and configured.
Note that from within this docker environment you ONLY have access to the source tree from where you started.
On Mac with Boot2Docker the performance on the mounted directory is currently extremely slow. This is a known problem related to boot2docker on the Mac. boot2docker/boot2docker#593 This issue has been resolved as a duplicate, and they point to a new feature for utilizing NFS mounts as the proposed solution:
boot2docker/boot2docker#64 An alternative solution to this problem is when you install Linux native inside a virtual machine and run your IDE and Docker etc in side that VM.
