Docker microservice for LineageOS Continuous Integration and Continous Deployment

Because I always believe that even advanced technologies should be available to everyone. This is a tentative to offer everyone the possibility to build its own images of LineageOS, when it wants, how it wants. You don't have to wait anymore for build bots. No more scene drama. Just build and enjoy your favourite Android ROM.

Because I'm a big fan of isolating everything if possible. I don't want to reinstall my OS or triage with dirty packages, just because today I need somethng, and tomorrow I'll need something else.

• At least Dual Core CPU ( Higher is better )
• At least 6GB RAM ( Higher is better )
• At least 200GB HDD Space ( Higher is better )

By default when you build Android from scratch you need to pull the Binaries of your interested device via ADB. Although via Docker this is not possible to do so ( would imply having all the devices connected to that machine and ideally know how to switch from one to the other before pulling ).

In order to enable the CICD pipeline to work, I highly suggest to make use of this manifest (https://github.com/TheMuppets/manifests) and save it inside your mapped /srv/local_manifests folder, by doing for example:

$ curl -o https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TheMuppets/manifests/cm-14.1/muppets.xml /srv/local_manifests/muppets.xml

This docker will autobuild any device list given for a specified branch every midnight at 02:00 UTC. In the end, any built ZIP will be moved to the relative volume mapped directory to /srv/zips.

IMPORTANT: Remember to use VOLUME mapping. By default Docker creates containers with max 10GB of Space. If you will not map volumes, the container will just break during Source syncronization!

You can configure the Docker by passing custom environment variables to it. See the Dockerfile for more details.

build cm14.1 LineageOS for hammerhead with default settings

docker run \
    --restart=always \
    -d \
    -e "USER_NAME=John Doe" \
    -e "[email protected]" \
    -e "DEVICE_LIST=hammerhead" \
    -v "/home/user/ccache:/srv/ccache" \
    -v "/home/user/source:/srv/src" \
    -v "/home/user/zips:/srv/zips" \

build cm-13.0 LineageOS for hammerhead and bullhead

docker run \
    --restart=always \
    -d \
    -e "USER_NAME=John Doe" \
    -e "[email protected]" \
    -e "BRANCH_NAME=cm-13.0" \
    -e "DEVICE_LIST=hammerhead,bullhead" \
    -v "/home/user/ccache:/srv/ccache" \
    -v "/home/user/source:/srv/src" \
    -v "/home/user/zips:/srv/zips" \

build cm-14.1 LineageOS for a device that doesn't exist inside the main project, but comes from a special manifest ( has to be created inside /home/user/local_manifests/ ). Finally provide a custom OTA URL for this ROM so users can update using built-in OTA Updater.

docker run \
    --restart=always \
    -d \
    -e "USER_NAME=John Doe" \
    -e "[email protected]" \
    -e "BRANCH_NAME=cm-14.1" \
    -e "DEVICE_LIST=n80xx" \
    -e "OTA_URL=http://cool.domain/api" \
    -v "/home/user/ccache:/srv/ccache" \
    -v "/home/user/source:/srv/src" \
    -v "/home/user/zips:/srv/zips" \
    -v "/home/user/local_manifests:/srv/local_manifests" \
    julianxhokaxhiu/docker-lineage-cicd

NOTE: /home/user/local_manifests/ may contain multiple XMLs, since all the files will be then copied inside .repo/local_manifests/
