A Docker image with the V language compiler for building within Docker and packages with V for various architectures inlcuding RISC-V.

The GitHub workflow produces images ghcr.io/prantlf/vlang and prantlf/vlang (on hub.docker.com) from the latest release of V for the following platforms: linux-x86, linux-x64, linux-arm64, linux-riscv64. They are compiled with gcc and with the bundled libgc library.

It is scheduled to run at least every week to follow weekly releases of V. The image will be tagged by the V release name, latest and the image produced the last time will be tagged by previous. For example, how to access the image by name and the latest one:

ghcr.io/prantlf/vlang:weekly.2024.34
ghcr.io/prantlf/vlang:latest

prantlf/vlang:weekly.2024.34
prantlf/vlang:latest

Additionally, archives with the V compiler for the same platforms are available for download from GitHub Releases.

FROM prantlf/vlang as builder

COPY . .
RUN v install && v .

FROM busybox:stable

COPY --from=builder /src/tool /

WORKDIR /
ENTRYPOINT ["/tool"]

The default working directory is /src. The V compiler is /opt/vlang/v and /opt/vlang is in PATH.

The image busybox:stable is a little bigger than scratch, but it's convenient, when the image hes to be entered for some investigation. If your program links to other libraries than glibc, you'll ned to add them the target image. Or use a Debian image as the base image, if the image size isn't critical:

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Lint and test your code.
