# Basic Arch Linux ARM Docker images [](https://travis-ci.org/agners/archlinuxarm-docker)
|
|
|
|
Docker images for Arch Linux ARM on AArch32 (ARMv7-A) and AArch64 (ARMv8-A). Built using native pacman and Docker multi-stage builds. Builds weekly by Travis CI on publicly visible infrastructure using Qemu emulation.
|
|
|
|
## Running the images
|
|
|
|
The images are on [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/u/agners/). Use the convenient `docker run`:
|
|
|
|
docker run --rm -ti agners/archlinuxarm
|
|
|
|
Instead of using the multi-arch container above, you can also get the architecture specific image directly:
|
|
|
|
docker run --rm -ti agners/archlinuxarm-arm32v7
|
|

### Layer structure
|
|
|
|
The image is generated from a freshly built pacman rootfs. Pacman has configured
|
|
to delete man pages and clean the package cache after installation to keep
|
|
images small.

## Common hurdles
|
|
|
|
### Setting the timezone
|
|
|
|
Simply add the `TZ` environment-variable and define it with a valid timezone-value.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker run -e TZ=Europe/Berlin agners/archlinuxarm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Building it yourself
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Docker with experimental mode on (required for squash)
|
|
- sudo or root is neccessary to setup binfmt for Qemu user mode emulation
|
|
|
|
### Building
|
|
|
|
- Prepare binfmt use with Qemu user mode using `sudo ./prepare-qemu`
|
|
- Run `BUILD_ARCH=<arch> ./build` to build
|
|
- Use `BUILD_ARCH=arm32v7` for ARMv7 Aarch32
|
|
- Use `BUILD_ARCH=arm64v8` for ARMv8 Aarch64
|
|
|
|
If you want to push the images, run `./push`. *But be aware you have no push access to the repos! Edit the scripts to push to custom Docker Hub locations!*
|
|
|
|
### Building from scratch
|
|
|
|
Since the image depends on itself, the question which arise is how this all
|
|
started. The initial containers have been created using the tarballs provided by
|
|
the Arch Linux ARM project. I used the following steps to bootstrap for each
|
|
architecture:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo tar xvzf ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest.tar.gz -C tmp-arch
|
|
sudo tar cf ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest.tar -C tmp-arch/ .
|
|
docker import ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest.tar agners/armv7-archlinux:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Credits
|
|
|
|
Ideas have been taken from already existing Docker files for Arch Linux.
|
|
However, this repository takes a slightly different approach to create images.
|
|
|
|
- https://github.com/archlinux/archlinux-docker
|
|
- Focus on Arch Linux for x86
|
|
- Uses docker run in priviledged mode to build images
|
|
- https://github.com/lopsided98/archlinux
|
|
- Uses prebuilt tarballs which contain packages not required in containers
