A simple docker container that provides a build environment for Kivy
Note: We recommend using apt-cacher-ng to speed up package fetching -
you should configure the host for it in the provided 71-apt-cacher-ng file.
There are various ways to get the image onto your system:
The preferred way (but using most bandwidth for the initial image) is to get our docker trusted build like this:
docker pull kartoza/kivy
To build the image yourself without apt-cacher (also consumes more bandwidth since deb packages need to be refetched each time you build) do:
docker build -t kartoza/kivy git://github.com/kartoza/docker-kivy
To build with apt-cache (and minimised download requirements) do you need to clone this repo locally first and modify the contents of 71-apt-cacher-ng to match your cacher host. Then build using a local url instead of directly from github.
git clone git://github.com/kartoza/docker-kivy
Now edit 71-apt-cacher-ng then do:
docker build -t kartoza/kivy .
To create a running container do:
sudo docker run --name "kivy" --hostname="kivy" --rm -i -t kartoza/kivy --help
