Docker container for arm64

[mibers]

Hi guys,

I wanna use labgrid dockerized on raspberry pi(s) but I only found amd64 based images on docker hub. So my questions:

• Is it planned to build images also arm65 based?
• How do the images on docker hub relate to the branches on GitHub, from which branches are they built?

For now I build them myself as described here:
https://github.com/labgrid-project/labgrid/tree/master/dockerfiles
and they work fine but just pulling most recent images from docker hub
might be more convenient.

Thx and best regards,
Martin I.

We don't use containers in our labs at Pengutronix and the existing ones are mainly a community effort. If you are interested in helping with maintenance or improvements, that would be great. :)

#1307 introduces arm64 docker images.

The images are built from master and pushed, see https://github.com/labgrid-project/labgrid/actions/workflows/docker.yml

Note that running an exporter in a container requires passing through the host's udev, see https://github.com/labgrid-project/labgrid/tree/master/dockerfiles#labgrid-exporter-usage
