# Readme

I created this Dockerfile to build latest git version of gstreamer and plugins for my raspberry pi.

In this case I am not using a real cross-compiler. I just run the entyre build inside

qemu-static-arm that runs in a raspbian chroot. 

This is way faster than full system emulation yet slower than real cross-compilation.

It took 1 - 2 hrs on my macbook pro.

*If you just want to download prebuilt binaries skip to [Installing](#installing)*

## Building

    docker build -t raspbian-chroot .

    docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd)/build:/sysroot/build:delegated raspbian-chroot

This will open a bash terminal.

This bash terminal lives inside the emulated raspberry chroot like this

    docker container -> chroot raspberry filesystem -> qemu-arm-static -> bash

`build` is mounted to `/sysroot/build` which you see as `/build` in the chrooted fs.

So you can do

    cd build

    bash build.sh

    # whatever

The build.sh script generates a new version of `build/usr_local.tar`.

# Installing

In order to install the prebuilt gstreamer you can transfer and decompress 

[build/usr_local.tar](https://github.com/davibe/docker-gstreamer-raspbian-build/raw/master/build/usr_local.tar)

to your raspberry and then

    scp build/usr_local.tar [email protected]:~

    ssh [email protected]

    sudo apt-get remove gstreamer-1.0 # remove raspbian version of gstreamer

    cd /

    tar -xvf /home/pi/usr_local.tar

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

    gst-inspect-1.0 --version # enjoy
