Introduction

Running the reformat-all script requires multiple dependencies. To overcome this problem, instead of trying to install all the necessary dependencies on your own, you can easily build a Docker image and run the script inside a Docker container based on this image.

Do you want to run the reformat-all script easily and without any hassle? You've come to the right place.

This is a step-by-step guide. Just follow the steps and you are good to go!

• Docker for Linux containers has to be preinstalled. Please refer to https://docs.docker.com/install/ if you haven't installed it yet. Your host OS should better be Linux, because we are going to use your current Linux user ID for building the image.
• Basic knowledge of Docker (not mandatory)

Now you are going to build your own Docker image based on Debian.

From the source root directory run the following command:

docker build -t buildelektra-sid \
        --build-arg JENKINS_USERID=$(id -u) \
        --build-arg JENKINS_GROUPID=$(id -g) \
        -f scripts/docker/debian/sid/Dockerfile \
        scripts/docker/debian/sid/

The build process depends on your Internet connection speed and the overall performance of your hardware. Most likely, it will take at least 5 minutes. Please be patient. Once you have built the image, you can reuse it multiple times.

The image tag buildelektra-sid we suggested can be replaced by a name of your own choosing. Note that currently our sid image is the only one with all the necessary tools installed.

After you built the image, you can execute a container like this:

docker run -it --rm \
        -v "$PWD:/home/jenkins/workspace" \
        -w /home/jenkins/workspace \
        buildelektra-sid

Again, if you changed the image tag buildelektra-sid, please change it above as well.

After starting the container, you should be automatically inside it in the working directory /home/jenkins/workspace.

Now run the script:

scripts/reformat-all

All your files should be reformatted afterwards.
