Scaffolding for Gramine

Quick start (build from source)

Steps common to all distros

First, you need to install latest release of Gramine (at least 1.6) from upstream package repositories. In this example, codename is e.g., bookworm for Debian 12, but for Ubuntu this might be written as $(lsb_release -sc) substitution in the Gramine’s instructions.

For example, when installing on Debian 12, add repositories like this:

sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/gramine-keyring.gpg https://packages.gramineproject.io/gramine-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gramine-keyring.gpg] https://packages.gramineproject.io/ bookworm main" \
| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gramine.list

sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/intel-sgx-deb.asc https://download.01.org/intel-sgx/sgx_repo/ubuntu/intel-sgx-deb.key
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/intel-sgx-deb.asc] https://download.01.org/intel-sgx/sgx_repo/ubuntu jammy main" \
| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/intel-sgx.list

Then you install Gramine as usual:

apt-get update
apt-get install gramine

Debian 12, Ubuntu 23.04

# sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install devscripts # if you didn't already
sudo apt-get build-dep .
debuild
sudo apt-get install ../gramine-scaffolding_*.deb
# gramine-sgx-gen-private-key # if you didn't already
scag-quickstart

Debian 11

# sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install devscripts # if you didn't already
sudo apt-get build-dep . -t bullseye-backports
debuild
sudo apt-get install ../gramine-scaffolding_*.deb
# gramine-sgx-gen-private-key # if you didn't already
scag-quickstart

Install into venv (for other distros, esp. for Ubuntu older than 23.04)

Unlike previous instructions, which build and install Scaffolding for all users in the system, this stanza installs the project into python’s virtual environment. Those work only for single user, and either:

each time you restart your shell, you need to source the activate script again; or
call the binaries by their full path (e.g., .venv/bin/scag-build); or
add venv’s bin/ directory to $PATH environment variable.

First, install gramine as described in https://gramine.rtfd.io/en/stable/installation.html#install-gramine-packages . If you haven’t generated an SGX signing key, you may want to consider executing the following command

gramine-sgx-gen-private-key

Then:

sudo apt-get install docker.io python3-pip mmdebstrap
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install .
scag-quickstart

Development (editable install into virtualenv)

sudo apt-get install gramine docker.io python3-venv
python3 -m venv --system-site-packages .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install --editable .
