feat: build docker images for arm arch

[DaleWebb]

What change does this PR introduce?

Builds the docker images for arm64 and amd64 architectures using buildkit emulation

Why was this change needed?

Closes #1316

Other information (Screenshots)

• Had to remove the base image: nikolaik/python-nodejs:python3.10-nodejs16-alpine as this couldn't be compiled for arm.
• Build times might increase significantly...

LGTM.
@Cliftonz @scopsy thoughts?

[scopsy]

@Cliftonz should we utilize depot in someway for this? Also, how this should affect the way we push to GHCR? Or no further action is needed from our side there

[underfisk]

@scopsy Any thoughts on this one? I've been loving the integration of Novu but for m1 mac's its being a blocker as sometimes the API crashes and needs manual reloading

[scopsy]

Would love to have @Cliftonz take a look at this to make sure we are not making the docker files larger and it's backwards compatible 🙏

[Cliftonz]

Taking a look at this now

[Cliftonz]

@DaleWebb Sorry this took so long, I need to look a little deeper at some of our internal tooling to see if this can be accomplished with the process we already have.

@scopsy Should be able to give me access sunday and I will be able to dig deeper monday.

@DaleWebb @scopsy Following up on this Depot is not currently building ARM containers otherwise it will block all of our builds. I have reached out to support to get this solved hopefully as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the local docker build does not seem like any issue other then needing to run docker buildx create --use before it would actually build multiple architectures.

[Cliftonz]

The issue was with depot waiting for context to be passed in on std in and not timing out.
This is getting with with depot right now.

@Cliftonz Can we close/merge this PR?

@Cliftonz Can we close/merge this PR?

@jainpawan21 Not yet, I will look over this monday

[Cliftonz]

@DaleWebb @underfisk I am going to have to delay working on this for the moment.
I have resiliency issues I need to attend to at this time.
My apologies

[underfisk]

Ah no worries, lately I've developed a tool with Playwright that automates the setup which was a thing that wasn't possible with Novu because the SDK always demands an API key, there are no "root/master" credentials which I hope there were.
My workaround now is a health check that does wget http:/.../v1/health-check to the novu-api because that often gets the following error:

assertion failed [result.value != EEXIST]: VmTracker attempted to allocate existing mapping

Let me know once there are some news regarding ARM support as it's starting to become somewhat important for our codebase

[Cliftonz]

Thanks for letting us know. I will see what I can do shortly.

[paulwer]

are there any updates regarding arm64 support? ❤️

[jainpawan21]

Thanks for letting us know. I will see what I can do shortly.

Hi @Cliftonz
What do you think? can we prioritize this somehow?

[Cliftonz]

Not at this current time, I really hate to do this but we have much higher priorities from the business and reliability side of things. This is definitely a great to have though we do not have the time currently to implement this in our pipeline.
