⚠️ Julia now builds and distributes official binaries for musl libc, and thus there are now Alpine-based images in the official docker repo. This repository is therefore archived.:warning:

julia-alpine

Building docker images and binaries of JuliaLang/julia using Alpine Linux.

Output tarballs with the Julia binary can be downloaded from GitHub releases and the docker images can be found on Docker Hub.

Build instructions

To build the image run

make image VERSION=$(JULIA_TAG)

where JULIA_TAG is the git tag to build. If VERSION is not specified Julia's master branch will be built. To push the tag to Docker Hub, run:

make push-image VERSION=$(JULIA_TAG)

To build the tarball with the Julia binary, run

make binary-dist VERSION=$(JULIA_TAG)

which will build and extract the binary to a build/ directory, together with a sha256sum file. To push the tarball to GitHub releases, run:

make push-tarball VERSION=$(JULIA_TAG) BUILD_NUMBER=$(BUILD_NUMBER) GHR_ARGS=$(...)

Status for Julia on musl libc

Julia's test-suite does not fully pass when built with musl libc. In particular the LibGit2 test suite segfaults for some tests, see this issue.
