# Swift on Balena
Welcome to **Swift on Balena** – a set of Docker images for Swift on Raspberry Pi and other ARM devices. These images are based on [balena's IoT focused Docker images](https://www.balena.io/docs/reference/base-images/base-images/) and make it easy to build and run Swift apps on ARM.
## Getting Started
Use this [sample project](https://github.com/wlisac/balena-swift-hello-world) to get started with Swift and Docker on your Raspberry Pi.
## Latest Releases
### Device Based Images
Device based images are a great way to get started with Swift on a specific device type.
| Device | Architecture | Swift | Docker Image |
|---------------------------------------|--------------|-------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Raspberry Pi (v1 or Zero) | armv6 | 5.1 | [`wlisac/raspberry-pi-swift:5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/raspberry-pi-swift/tags) |
| Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W
(64-bit OS) | aarch64 | 5.5.1 | [`wlisac/raspberrypi0-2w-64-swift:5.5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/raspberrypi0-2w-64-swift/tags) |
| Raspberry Pi 2 | armv7hf | 5.1 | [`wlisac/raspberry-pi2-swift:5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/raspberry-pi2-swift/tags) |
| Raspberry Pi 3 | armv7hf | 5.1 | [`wlisac/raspberrypi3-swift:5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/raspberrypi3-swift/tags) |
| Raspberry Pi 3 (64-bit OS) | aarch64 | 5.5.1 | [`wlisac/raspberrypi3-64-swift:5.5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/raspberrypi3-64-swift/tags) |
| Raspberry Pi 4 (64-bit OS) | aarch64 | 5.5.1 | [`wlisac/raspberrypi4-64-swift:5.5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/raspberrypi4-64-swift/tags) |
| Generic ARMv7-a HF | armv7hf | 5.1 | [`wlisac/generic-armv7ahf-swift:5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/generic-armv7ahf-swift/tags) |
| Generic AARCH64 (ARMv8) | aarch64 | 5.5.1 | [`wlisac/generic-aarch64-swift:5.5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/generic-aarch64-swift/tags) |
### Architecture Based Images
Architecture based images are useful when building an image for multiple device types with a common architecture.
| Device | Architecture | Swift | Docker Image |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------|-------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Raspberry Pi (v1 or Zero) | armv6 | 5.1 | [`wlisac/rpi-swift:5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/rpi-swift/tags) |
| Raspberry Pi 2
Raspberry Pi 3
Generic ARMv7-a HF | armv7hf | 5.1 | [`wlisac/armv7hf-swift:5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/armv7hf-swift/tags) |
| Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W (64-bit OS)
Raspberry Pi 3 (64-bit OS)
Raspberry Pi 4 (64-bit OS)
Generic AARCH64 (ARMv8) | aarch64 | 5.5.1 | [`wlisac/aarch64-swift:5.5.1-build`](https://hub.docker.com/r/wlisac/aarch64-swift/tags) |
## Image Variants
There are several image variants available depending on hardware, Linux distribution, and Swift version.
- Devices
- Raspberry Pi (v1 or Zero)
- Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W (64-bit OS)
- Raspberry Pi 2
- Raspberry Pi 3
- Raspberry Pi 3 (64-bit OS)
- Raspberry Pi 4 (64-bit OS)
- Generic ARMv7-a HF
- Generic AARCH64 (ARMv8)
- Linux Distributions
- Debian: Stretch
- Ubuntu: Bionic and Xenial
- Swift Versions
- Swift 4 (`4.2.3`)
- Swift 5 (`5.5.1`, `5.1`, `5.0.1`, `5.0`)
- `build` and `run` image variants for [multi-stage builds](https://docs.docker.com/develop/develop-images/multistage-build/)
### Image Naming Scheme
The image naming scheme for Swift on Balena supports a subset of [balena's image naming scheme](https://www.balena.io/docs/reference/base-images/base-images/#how-the-image-naming-scheme-works) and follows the pattern below.
```plain
wlisac/--swift:--(build|run)
```
#### Image Names
- `` is either the device type or architecture and is required. See the [device list](Documentation/Device%20List.md) for available device names and architecture names.
- `` is the Linux distribution. This is optional and will usually default to Debian, but may fall-back to Ubuntu if a Debian variant is not available.
#### Image Tags
- `` is the version of Swift and is required.
- `` is the version of the Linux distribution and is required if a distribution is specified in the image name.
- `(build|run)` specifies either the `build` or `run` image variant and is required. The `build` variant includes the Swift compiler, Swift Package Manager, and other tools needed to build and run a Swift app from source. The `run` variant is much lighter-weight, does not include the Swift compiler, and is designed to run an already built Swift app. The `build` and `run` image variants can be used together in a [multi-stage Dockerfile](https://github.com/wlisac/balena-swift-hello-world/blob/b439fddbbda93019ed8747d249efc9fc8bb4c4c7/Dockerfile.raspberrypi3) to produce a smaller image that's ready for deployment.
#### Examples
`wlisac/raspberrypi3-swift:5.1-build`
- ``: raspberrypi3 – the Raspberry Pi 3 device type
- ``: omitted – defaulted to Debian
- ``: 5.1 – specifies Swift version 5.1
- ``: omitted – defaulted to Stretch
- `(build|run)`: build – specifies the `build` variant for building a Swift app from source
`wlisac/raspberrypi3-ubuntu-swift:4.2.3-bionic-run`
- ``: raspberrypi3 – the Raspberry Pi 3 device type
- ``: ubuntu
- ``: 4.2.3 – specifies Swift version 4.2.3
- ``: bionic – Ubuntu 18.04
- `(build|run)`: run – specifies the `run` variant for running an already built Swift app
`wlisac/armv7hf-swift:5.1-build`
- ``: armv7hf – the armv7hf architecture type
- ``: omitted – defaulted to Debian
- ``: 5.1 – specifies Swift version 5.1
- ``: omitted – defaulted to Stretch
- `(build|run)`: build – specifies the `build` variant for building a Swift app from source
