Build for Raspberry Pi / ARM

[luca-vercelli]

Hello,
I would like to know what is (if any) the roadmap to build wkhtmltox for Raspbian (Raspberry Pi, ARM processor).

See e.g.
wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf#1868
and odoo/odoo#1093

I cannot find any "official" documentation.

My use case is for Odoo on Raspbian.

Regards.

Sorry, I didn't realize the package already exists:

https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/releases/download/0.12.5/wkhtmltox_0.12.5-1.raspbian.stretch_armhf.deb

I close the issue.

@luca-vercelli: there's no buster image -- do you need one? Also, I see that the docker repo has changed to https://hub.docker.com/r/balenalib/rpi-raspbian -- would you be willing to test new builds, both for stretch and buster?

[luca-vercelli]

At the moment I don't need that. I'm trying to use the stretch package.

@luca-vercelli: let me know if it works, I may ask you try another build with the new docker image linked above sometime next week 😁

[luca-vercelli]

Yes, it works great!
Let me know if and how I could test the new build (I am using Raspbian GNU/Linux 10)

[ashkulz]

@luca-vercelli: would you be able to basic testing once I implement #50?

[luca-vercelli]

@ashkulz what do you need exactly? If you can generate a new package, I could install it and try it.

[ashkulz]

That's what I need, basically! Will try to produce it in a day or two 👍

[luca-vercelli]

@ashkulz any news about the Buster package?

[ashkulz]

@luca-vercelli: I haven't had time to debug it, unfortunately. There is some difference in the distributions which causes it to skip building WebKit even though it's configured on buster.

[luca-vercelli]

There's anything I can do? Any log file to read?

[ashkulz]

I've triggered a build on the PR, let's see if it works now 🤷‍♂
