The Raspberry Pi installation you get at Resin.io uses Docker on ARM and it works great! We also cross-compile containers in the cloud. Docker for ARM standalone is now available in several Linux Distro repos, Arch Linux is one I am aware of.
What other parts would you like to see?
- dmritard96 12y agohave used the resin.io docker images on arch on my pi. What I would love is a raspbian version as its just a super popular distro on raspi. I know its a bit of gridlock right now. It seems that its going into the jesse version of debian but the raspbian release of jesse isn't out the last time a checked (a couple weeks ago). I did try out lessbian - awesome name - on raspi and I am not recalling specifically why it didn't work out for me. I had some issue with the filesystem dependencies not being there and getting them was a pretty large undertaking (so much so that it would have been just as easy to do it on raspbian). Would love to contrib myself but right now i'm swamped and don't really have much expertise in either docker or arm. At least my experience should bring some clarity/insight into what I encountered.
- alexandros 12y agoHey there. When we did Docker-on-ARM, we asked people to push their rpi-compatible containers to the Docker index with the rpi- prefix. Since then there have been many containers published, including several flavours of rpi-raspbian. There's nothing to stop you from packaging up your favourite distro and posting it on the Docker index. https://registry.hub.docker.com/search?q=rpi- https://registry.hub.docker.com/search?q=rpi-
- dmritard96 12y agototally, I think the painful part is prepping the underlying os with the filesystem dependencies as it requires modding the kernel? I could be way off though
