# ARM support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ARM support should be considered experimental. It will be extended step by step in the coming weeks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building a Docker Development Image works in the same fashion as for Intel platform (x86-64).
|
|
|
|
|
Currently we have initial support for 32bit ARMv7 devices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To work with the Docker Development Image you have to clone the Docker/Docker repo on a supported device.
|
|
|
|
|
It needs to have a Docker Engine installed to build the Docker Development Image.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From the root of the Docker/Docker repo one can use make to execute the following make targets:
|
|
|
|
|
- make validate
|
|
|
|
|
- make binary
|
|
|
|
|
- make build

|
|
|
- make deb

|
|
|
- make bundles
|
|
|
|
|
- make default
|
|
|
|
|
- make shell

|
|
|
- make test-unit
|
|
|
|
|
- make test-integration-cli
|

|
|
|
- make
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Makefile does include logic to determine on which OS and architecture the Docker Development Image is built.
|
|
|
|
|
Based on OS and architecture it chooses the correct Dockerfile.

|
|
|
For the ARM 32bit architecture it uses `Dockerfile.armhf`.

|
|
|
|
|
So for example in order to build a Docker binary one has to
|
|
|
|
|
1. clone the Docker/Docker repository on an ARM device `git clone git@github.com:docker/docker.git`
|
|
|
|
|
2. change into the checked out repository with `cd docker`
|
|
|
|
|
3. execute `make binary` to create a Docker Engine binary for ARM
