Building in Docker
This folder contains a script for building Anki inside a Docker container.
It works by creating an image with the required dependencies, and then runs the
build with the source folder mounted into the image. This will cause files to be
written into bazel-\*
and node_modules
in the source folder as the build proceeds.
The advantage of doing it this way is that most of the efficiency of building
outside Docker is retained - you can make minor changes and run the build again,
and only the changed parts need to be rebuilt.
If you're looking for a fully isolated build, this other approach in the docs folder may suit you better. As it also includes runtime dependencies, it may be a useful reference for libraries you'll need to install before running Anki.
Usage
Ensure Docker is installed on your machine, and your user has permission to connect to Docker. Then run the following command from the root folder of this source repo:
$ scripts/docker/build.sh amd64
The resulting wheels will be written into bazel-dist. See Development for information on how to install them.
If you're on an ARM Linux machine, replace amd64 with arm64.
