Docker Mbed Cli

Mbed Os now has an official docker image, see https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/pkgs/container/mbed-os-env

This is an un-official mbed-cli docker image. Currently it only supports GCC Arm as its default compiler.

Building

docker build -t "mbed_cli" --build-arg USER_ID=$(id -u)  --build-arg GROUP_ID=$(id -g) .

if you dont plan on using it with your default user(shared user permissions) you can edit this part out in the Dockerfile

#shared user permissions
ARG USER_ID
ARG GROUP_ID
RUN addgroup --gid $GROUP_ID user
RUN adduser --disabled-password --gecos '' --uid $USER_ID --gid $GROUP_ID user
USER user

then build using

docker build -t "mbed_cli" .

You can add an alias like mbed_docker to use it like mbed-cli

alias mbed_docker='docker run -it -v $(pwd):/home/projects:cached mbed_cli mbed-cli'
