# 1. Build Strategy #
For all platforms, the strategy for building docker/podman images is the same:
* First we create a common shared image that contains:
- the latest source files (by using the `COPY` function)
- all the means to build an OAI RAN executable
* all packages, compilers, ...
* especially UHD is installed
* Then from this shared image (`ran-build`) we can build target images for:
- eNB
- gNB
- lte-UE
- nr-UE
* These target images will only contain:
- the generated executable (for example `lte-softmodem.Rel15`)
- the generated shared libraries (for example `liboai_usrpdevif.so.Rel15`)
- the needed libraries and packages to run these generated binaries
- Some configuration file templates
- Some tools (such as `ping`, `ifconfig`)
TO DO:
- Proper entrypoints
- Proper port exposure
- ...
# 2. File organization #
Dockerfiles are named with the following naming convention: `Dockerfile.${target}.${OS-version}.${cluster-version}`
Targets can be:
- `ran` for an image named `ran-build` (the shared image)
- `eNB` for an image named `oai-enb`
- `gNB` for an image named `oai-gnb`
- `lteUE` for an image named `oai-lte-ue`
- `nrUE` for an image named `oai-nr-ue`
The currently-supported OS are:
- `rhel8.2` for Red Hat Entreprise Linux
- `ubuntu18` for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
The currently-supported cluster version is:
- `rhel8.2.oc4-4`
We have also `rhel7.oc4-4` support but it will be discontinued soon.
For more details in build within a Openshift Cluster, see [OpenShift README](../openshift/README.md) for more details.
# 3. Building using `docker` under Ubuntu 18.04 #
## 3.1. Pre-requisites ##
* `git` installed
* `docker-ce` installed
* Pulling `ubuntu:bionic` from DockerHub
## 3.2. Building the shared image ##
This can be done starting `2020.w41` tag on the `develop` branch, or any branch that includes that tag.
```bash
git clone https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g.git
cd openairinterface5g
git checkout develop
```
In our Eurecom/OSA environment we need to pass a GIT proxy.
```bash
docker build --target ran-build --tag ran-build:latest --file docker/Dockerfile.ran.ubuntu18 --build-arg NEEDED_GIT_PROXY="http://proxy.eurecom.fr:8080" .
```
if you don't need it, do NOT pass any value:
```bash
docker build --target ran-build --tag ran-build:latest --file docker/Dockerfile.ran.ubuntu18 .
```
After a while:
```bash
docker image ls
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
ran-build latest ccb721bc0b57 1 minute ago 4.06GB
...
```
## 3.3. Building any target image ##
For example, the eNB:
```bash
docker build --target oai-enb --tag oai-enb:latest --file docker/Dockerfile.eNB.ubuntu18 .
```
After a while:
```
docker image ls
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
oai-enb latest 25ddbd8b7187 1 minute ago 516MB
<none> <none> 875ea3b05b60 8 minutes ago 8.18GB
ran-build latest ccb721bc0b57 1 hour ago 4.06GB
```
Do not forget to remove the temporary image:
```
docker image prune --force
```
