Docker images for Swift.

You can find the Docker Hub repo here: https://hub.docker.com/_/swift/

Usage

Pull the Docker image from Docker Hub:
docker pull swift
Create a container from the image and run it:
docker run -it swift /bin/bash

If you want to run the Swift REPL you will need to run the container with additional privileges:

# If running Docker on Linux:
docker run --security-opt seccomp=unconfined -it swift

# If running Docker on macOS:
docker run --privileged -it swift

We also provide a "slim" image. Slim images are images designed just for running an already built Swift program. Consequently, they do not contain the Swift compiler.

The normal and slim images can be combined via a multi-stage Dockerfile to produce a lighter-weight image ready for deployment. For example:

FROM swift:latest as builder
WORKDIR /root
COPY . .
RUN swift build -c release

FROM swift:slim
WORKDIR /root
COPY --from=builder /root .
CMD [".build/release/docker-test"]
