support arm64 architecture

[longquan7]

I want to build this image on arm64 architecture, but I'm not sure this tar.gz file and zip packages can be support arm64

I'm afraid I don't have access to any arm64 hardware to test this on. Can you provide more details about what we would need to do to support this?

[longquan7]

@cap10morgan To be support other architecture you can look like this https://github.com/docker-library/official-images#architectures-other-than-amd64

[Quantisan]

would it be as simple as using https://hub.docker.com/r/arm64v8/alpine/ and then apply the same Dockerfile in our alpine folder? @longquan7, do you want to give it a try?

[longquan7]

@cap10morgan @Quantisan OK, I will try to build on arm64

For official images, we prefer to not have multiple architecture Dockerfiles, especially given that we anticipate fixing docker-library/official-images#2289 soon.

In the case of Alpine, multi-architecture support is waiting on gliderlabs/docker-alpine#304.

Given that the current Dockerfile is essentially just FROM openjdk, wget some-jar-file.jar, it should work as-is on many architectures in addition to arm64v8. I'm going to do some testing and send a PR for your approval to https://github.com/docker-library/official-images/blob/83445dba81738f34d37e13fa811b34841d1d6def/library/clojure if it works out. 👍
