Would an armhf / armv7 Docker container be possible

Hi there,

I'm really enjoying using DFW and I was wondering if it would be possible to have a armv7 build added to Docker hub?

Cheers,

Hi @azurefreecovid. Thank you very much for this suggestion, I'm very interested in it.

I'll try to look into this as soon as I find the time, although given that I have no prior experience in building Docker images for additional architectures, don't expect a result too quickly.

If you have any knowledge or even code you'd like to share, I'd appreciate it -- and a pull request is always welcome, too!

@pitkley Mind if I work on it?

Sorry for not getting back to you earlier, @opencloudengineer. Of course, please, go right ahead! I'm happy to review any contributions and will gladly help with any setup that might be required on the Docker Hub side, if there is any!

Thanks, but I have no experience with Rust so I will have to look into building binaries with cargo for different architectures. I'll ping you if I face any problem with that.

BTW, I have never used Docker Hub Registry, except for docker pull, but I don't think that'll be a problem.

Also I was wondering, how about using GHCR as registry along with docker hub, you know due to docker hub rate limits.
As GitHub Container Registry supersedes the existing Packages Docker registry that you are already using.

@azurefreecovid good news, this is now implemented. The Docker image is now built for amd64, arm64 and armv7 (specifically armhf). You can get it both from Docker Hub and GHCR:

The next release of DFW which will be pre-built for the mentioned architectures will be v1.3.0, which I expect I will release in about a week's time.
