[GRASS-dev] GRASS GIS on an Alpine Linux docker

GRASS GRASS developer
1

Dear all,

Recently I’ve started looking for a docker image with GRASS, I’m looking for a minimal image that is as small as possible.
From my test the other images available where always above 1GB of size, the current version once built have a size of ~220 MB.
Another difference respect to others dockers available that I found is that it is possible to select which version use when building the image:

sudo docker build --build-arg GRASS_VERSION=7.7 \
--build-arg PYTHON_VERSION=3 \
--build-arg PROJ_VERSION=5.2.0 \
--build-arg PROJ_DATUMGRID_VERSION=1.8 \

--volume \

zarch/alpine-grass-gis

You can find the repository here:

https://github.com/zarch/docker-alpine-grass-gis

Do you have any feedback?
Any hint to improve the Dockerfile or the README.md are welcome. :slight_smile:

Thank you for the support.
Best regards

Pietro

great, probably we should start collecting all GRASS-related dockers
on GRASS wiki?

I also made an Alpine based docker some time ago, see GitHub. Lately it didn’t build any more but I didn’t have time to fix it.

Yes. At time they are collected here

https://grass.osgeo.org/download/software/docker-images/

I think that the wiki might be better.

It looks much better now than my old attempts - thank you :slight_smile:

Any hint to improve the `Dockerfile` or the `README.md` are welcome. :slight_smile:

I'll give it a try as will report back.
