altcoin-mxe

Docker image with MXE tools required to build altcoins (boost1.58, qt5, db5.3, miniupnpc-1.6, libqrencode-4.0.2, openssl-1.0)

What is inside?

Tools:

boost-dev v1.58
qt5
BerkeleyDB v5.3
openssl v1.0
miniupnpc v1.6
libqrencode v4.0.2

Env variables:

MXE_PATH
MXE_INCLUDE_PATH
MXE_LIB_PATH

How to use this image

Build it yourself:

$ docker build --tag altcoin-mxe --target build-mxe .

Or pull already built image from DockerHub:

$ docker pull sskender/altcoin-mxe:latest

Run container:

$ docker run -it sskender/altcoin-mxe:latest bash

Clone your shitcoin and build it:

$ git clone https://github.com/shitdev/shitcoin
$ cd shitcoin
$ i686-w64-mingw32.static-qmake-qt5 \
	RELEASE=1 \
	USE_UPNP=1 \
	USE_QRCODE=1 \
	USE_DBUS=1 \
	BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX=-mt \
	BOOST_THREAD_LIB_SUFFIX=_win32-mt \
	BOOST_INCLUDE_PATH=$MXE_INCLUDE_PATH/boost \
	BOOST_LIB_PATH=$MXE_LIB_PATH \
	OPENSSL_INCLUDE_PATH=$MXE_INCLUDE_PATH/openssl \
	OPENSSL_LIB_PATH=$MXE_LIB_PATH \
	BDB_INCLUDE_PATH=$MXE_INCLUDE_PATH \
	BDB_LIB_PATH=$MXE_LIB_PATH \
	MINIUPNPC_INCLUDE_PATH=$MXE_INCLUDE_PATH \
	MINIUPNPC_LIB_PATH=$MXE_LIB_PATH \
	QRENCODE_INCLUDE_PATH=$MXE_INCLUDE_PATH/qrencode \
	QRENCODE_LIB_PATH=$MXE_LIB_PATH \
	QMAKE_LRELEASE=/build/mxe/usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/qt/bin/lrelease shitcoin-qt.pro
$ make -f Makefile.Release

Use for building a headless daemon

Build or pull image:

$ docker build --tag altcoin-mxe:headless --target build-headless .
$ # OR
$ docker pull sskender/altcoin-mxe:headless

Run container:

$ docker run -it sskender/altcoin-mxe:headless bash

Clone your shitcoin and build it:

$ git clone https://github.com/shitdev/shitcoin
$ cd shitcoin/src
$ make -f makefile.unix

Use as base image

FROM sskender/altcoin-mxe:latest as mybuild

WORKDIR /build/shitcoin
COPY . .

RUN i686-w64-mingw32.static-qmake-qt5 ...

This will probably work. If not, have fun tweaking boost, miniupnpc, openssl versions, maybe use qt4 instead of qt5 for older altcoins or any other dependency.

Is there a better way to do this?

Probably.
