Hi,
I have devloped an application with NCS v2.0.0. I have succesfully built and flahsed the application to the nRF52833 DK. I now would like to use Docker to build the application. I am following the steps on this page. After pasting the below line into the terminal, it loads indefintely. I have attached a screenshot of what I see in the terminal. Any suggestions as to what I should do please?
docker build -t nrfconnect-sdk --build-arg sdk_nrf_revision=v2.1-branch
Regards,
Adam
Hei, can you share the project code (or a minimal sample) so that I can reproduce the issue? There is a daily test in the repo that ensures building the asset_tracker_v2 works, but I haven't added more samples.
Hi Markus,
Our application is a modified version of this Zephur sample: Peripheral HT. How do I go about building this with docker?
Thanks,
Adam
Hei, I followed the instructions for the full example:
# Launch Docker image with an interactive shell
docker run -it -v ${PWD}:/workdir/project nordicplayground/nrfconnect-sdk:main /bin/bash
# Init NCS
west init -m https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-nrf --mr v2.1-branch
# Update
west update --narrow -o=--depth=1
# Go to sample
zephyr/samples/bluetooth/peripheral_ht/
# Build
ZEPHYR_BASE=/root/test/zephyr west build -p always -b nrf52840dk_nrf52840

Hi Markus,
Thanks for the help.
I am still unable to build the application with Docker. I should point out that I am using windows - does the mkae a difference with regards to building the application? I also have a few more questions pelase:
1. Does it matter what repository you run Docker in? Also, does it matter which repository you are in when you clone a docker image? Should you be in the nrf application’s repository?
2. I ran the terminal code succesfully from line 1 to 7 above in the Docker interactive shell. However, in line 8, zephyr/samples/bluetooth/peripheral_ht/, the command does not work. My application repository is C:\ncs\myapps\atmo_temp. Insetad of running line 8 as you did, I insetad tried cd C:\ncs\myapps\atmo_temp; as expected, it says that this repository does not exist. What are you trying to do here?
3. Because of the issue with line 8, I could not run the code in line 10. Insetad I tried the following: west build C:\ncs\myapps\atmo_temp -p always -b nrf52833dk_nrf52833. After running this line, all I see in the terminal is: > and nothing happnes... What should I do here?
4. Instead of running in the Docker interactive shell, I also tried running the terminal commands from this page that you linked to. I first open a command prompt from the nrf toolchain. I could not copy lines 140-143 into the command prompt as it had an issue with the inverted commas used: '.Instead, I ran each line one at a time. I first run: docker run --rm -v "%cd%":/workdir/project nrfconnect-sdk /bin/bash and I think it runs succesfully as nothing happens... I just see C:\ncs\v2.0.0> in the terminal window. I then run west init and update succesfully. After that, I run the following west build command: west build C:\ncs\myapps\atmo_temp -p always -b nrf52833dk_nrf52833 and the application buids succesfully. How do I know if I am actually building with docker? I could run this command without Docker and it would still build as it is just a west build command.
Kind Regards,
Adam
