# 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](../../docs/docker/README.md) 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](../docs/development.md) for information on how to install them.
|
|
|
|
If you're on an ARM Linux machine, replace amd64 with arm64.
