Missing arm64 arch in docker manifest causing docker build to error out

[tomrod10]

Problem

Tried setting up/running OL locally via docker and I get the following error when I run docker compose build from the root directory: failed to solve: openlibrary/olbase:latest: failed to resolve source metadata for docker.io/openlibrary/olbase:latest: no match for platform in manifest: not found

I'm running into this on my M3 MacBook Air. Additionally, I attempted this on my Linux (Intel chip/amd64 arch) machine and was able to get it up and running without a hitch.

Seems like the docker manifest is missing arm64/linux platform.

Note: I'm still newish to Docker so I have limited knowledge on this area. Regardless, I'm happy to learn more and tackle this if possible. Thanks!

Reproducing the bug

To check docker manifest

1. Open your terminal
2. Go to the root directory ~/openlibrary
3. run the following command docker manifest inspect openlibrary/olbase:latest
4. See the printed content on your terminal

To repro the issue

1. Have access to a computer/laptop with an arm64 architecture CPU
2. Install Docker referencing OL readme guide
3. cd into the root directory ~/openlibrary
4. run the following command docker compose build on the terminal
5. Wait and check build logs

• Expected behavior:

• Docker build to not error out and successfully build the image

• Actual behavior:

• Docker build runs into error and exits the build process

Context

• OS (Windows, Mac, etc): Mac (arm64 arch)
• Environment (prod, dev, local): dev

Can you use buildx to enable Docker emulation for ARM64?

docker buildx create --use
docker run --privileged --rm tonistiigi/binfmt --install all

Following because I also had this issue and ultimately built ol base from scratch. Would be nice if we published arm images but I know that's work.

@cdrini says this problem may go away once our nginx setup gets rid of openresty (as our docker container approaches can converge and won't need separate profiles)

docker buildx create --use
docker run --privileged --rm tonistiigi/binfmt --install all

Ran these and then attempted to run docker compose build and the same error came up.

I ended up doing this ^^^

For reference I did the following:

1. Built a local image of olbase with linux/arm64 as the platform:

• docker buildx build --platform linux/arm64 --file docker/Dockerfile.olbase . --tag olbase:latest

2. Edit Dockerfile.oldev to reference the local image of olbase

• FROM olbase:latest

3. Run docker compose build
4. Run docker compose up
5. Navigate to localhost:8080

• Open Library Dev version should load

Thank you @tomrod10 for struggling through! We'll see if we can improve this workflow moving forward, but for now, since we have two cases where we've gotten it to work, marking as resolved

We should add it to the setup docs if manual steps are going to be required for anyone on a M1 chip to run OL.
