This repository holds source for Debian packages that prepare a host to boot Cuttlefish, an Android device that is designed to run on Google Compute Engine.
This package can be built directly with dpkg-buildpackage, but it is designed to be built with:
device/google/cuttlefish/tools/create_base_image.go
Check out the AOSP tree to obtain the script.
The Debian packages can be also built with the docker container whose Dockerfile and build scripts are included in this repository.
./build.sh --build_debs_only --rebuild_debs_verbose
The command will build the container, if needed, that builds the Debian packages,
and builds the Debian packages with the container. The resultant packages will be
located under the ./out directory.
This repository also contains a Dockerfile that can be used to construct an image for a privileged Docker container, which in turn can boot the cuttlefish device. Such a image allows one to develop for Cuttlefish without having to install a number of packages directly on their host machine. For more details, read the BUILDING.md file.
