This is a Dockerfile for the build environment of AOSP and Android-x86. You can directly pull the docker image from docker hub via the image here. The Dockerfile is a modified version from AOSP Docker with a more up-to-date OS version and dependencies, as well as adaptations for Android-x86 building.
You can build the Dockerfile exactly the same as AOSP Docker using the following commands:
docker build --build-arg userid=$(id -u) --build-arg groupid=$(id -g) --build-arg username=$(id -un) -t aosp_build .
To run the docker, use
docker run -it --rm -v $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP:/src --net host --privileged -v /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb aosp_build
where $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP is the root directory of your AOSP/Android-x86 sources.
Then you can
cd /src
source build/envsetup.sh
lunch
to configure and build the AOSP/Android-x86 sources. The USB device mapping also allows you to use adb and fastboot to flash your mobile devices.
Android sources are managed via the repo too, which is already included in the docker.
Alternatively, follow the instructions in https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/+/HEAD/README.md to install it.
