Resolving Docker Build Problems (COPY FILES) for Linux and Introducing Android Builds
Budget: €750 – €1,500 EUR
https://github.com/state-of-the-art/qt6-docker?tab=readme-ov-file
i want to fix the build i had working once that builds my c++ project via a docker container for linux.
i want to run the thing like this:
PS G:\demo_cmake> python ..\scripts\build\Linux.py Framework
and build then there the folder name "Framework" that has an cmakelist file..
it kind of breaks idk.
after fixing the linux.py i want to do the same using an other container to compile for android.
Fix the Dockerfile for Linux Build:
Correct Path Issues:
Ensure that all COPY and ADD commands reference paths correctly. The paths should be relative to the build context to avoid file not found errors.
Align Build Context:
Make sure the build context passed to Docker aligns with the Dockerfile location and the necessary files are included within this context.
Resolve Missing Files:
Verify that all required files (e.g., ci_cd, GTest, get_linuxdeploy_appimage.sh) are present in the correct locations and accessible during the build.
Verbose Output:
Modify the build command to use --progress=plain to get detailed output for debugging during the build process.
Disable Caching:
Ensure the build process runs without using cached layers by adding the appropriate flags, so all steps are executed freshly.
Create Separate Build Support for Android:
New Build Script:
After fixing the Linux build, create a new script named android.py to handle the Android build process. This script will be specifically tailored for the Android environment and should leverage a Docker container set up for Android cross-compilation.
Dockerfile for Android:
Ensure the Dockerfile (or a new one if needed) is configured to include Android toolchains and dependencies for building the project on Android.
Ensure Build Consistency:
Separate Scripts for Separate Platforms:
The linux.py script should remain focused on building the project for Linux. The new android.py script will exclusively handle the Android build, ensuring a clear separation of concerns.
By following these steps, the project will have robust support for building in both Linux and Android environments, using distinct scripts and properly configured Docker containers.
