Cross Wails

Docker Image for Cross Compiling Wails Applications

Usage

You can use this image as a base image in your own Dockerfile:

FROM ghcr.io/abjrcode/cross-wails:v2.8.2 as base

# Use `wails build` to build your application

Check out the example directory for a complete example that demonstrates building a Wails applications for Linux ARM64, Linux AMD64 and Windows AMD64

Details

• Image can cross-compile Wails applications that depend on CGO
  • Supports cross compiling to Linux ARM64 & AMD64 and Windows AMD64
    • Can be extended to support more targets and architectures but then I would recommend using goreleaser-cross-toolchain
  • You can also use NSIS for creating Windows installers
• It doesn't support cross compiling to MacOS because Wails doesn't support it yet
• The image tag is the same as Wails version, e.g. v2.7.1
• The image is adopted from goreleaser-cross-toolchain but with stripped down dependencies to minimize the image size and build time
  • It is still a bit over 4GB though :(
