Building KNULLI With Docker

It is recommended that you build KNULLI via Docker instead of using a direct build. By using Docker, you significantly reduce the number of differences between your system and the system that developers are building on which reduces issues where the system builds fine for one person while failing for another.

System requirements¶

Linux Operating System capable of running docker
More than 100 GB of available disk space

Retro Achievements and Screen Scraper¶

This build does not include the required keys for both Screen Scraper and RetroAchievements. The image will build succesfully without the key, but neither RetroAchievements or Screen Scraper will work without the keys.

RetroAchievements and Screen Scraper will work if you add your own keys prior to building.

Step 1: Install Docker¶

Docker Version	Instructions
Docker Engine Only (Does not include Docker Desktop)	https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/
Docker Desktop (Also includes Docker Engine)	https://docs.docker.com/desktop/setup/install/linux/

Step 2: Grab the latest source code¶

$ git clone https://github.com/knulli-cfw/distribution distribution
$ cd distribution
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update

Step 3: Setup the docker container¶

This is not required on every build. In fact, you can normally skip this step if you've done it already.

You may need to remove your existing docker container and re-do this step if you are switching between different builds or if your are building the mainline and breaking changes have been made (e.g., a new app or library is required).

$ make build-docker-image

Step 4: Building the target¶
