The gnuradio Out-Of-Tree module gr-satnogs is packaged by gr-satnogs-package. The gitlab-CI automatically builds the package in docker containers as nightlies and on each release (git-tag), configured by the .gitlab-ci.yml.
To use a modified gr-satnogs module on a SatNOGS ground station, it's recommended to build it using the gr-satnogs-package scripts. Otherwise you can build gr-satnogs manually and adjust the installation paths to match the paths specified by gr-satnogs-package.
Building gr-satnogs with gr-satnogs-package can be automated via gitlab-CI, so that binary releases of your modified gr-satnogs module are available to download and install by the satnogs-client-ansible scripts (satnogs-setup).
