How to build a STM32CubeIDE project in a Docker image?

[JNoon.1]

Hi,

I am fairly new to the CI/CD processes. I am currently trying to use Bitbucket to run a pipeline to build my STM32CubeIDE project.

I have set up the project on Windows in the STM32CubeIDE, I have then setup a pipeline using the image circutor/stm32cubeide from DockerHub (https://hub.docker.com/r/circutor/stm32cubeide).

To first test this Docker image, I am using WSL to run the docker container and jump into it. Once in the container I am cloning my repo and running the command:

/opt/stm32cubeide/stm32cubeide -nosplash -application org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.core.headlessbuild -import . -build all

It looks to generate the makefiles in the Debug and Release folders, but it fails. The project is using a STM32WB15CCU. I get the following output:

Has anyone had any success in building a Windows based STM32CubeIDE project in a Docker image before?

I want to keep the project using the generated makefiles as I am developing on Windows and using the Docker image in the pipeline. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I worked out how to achieve this.

I created a docker image, which in the dockerfile I copied the STM32CubeIDE folder into /opt. This allowed me to have STM32CubeIDE inside of the docker image.

I also added a path to the stm32cubeide executable to the PATH variable in the dockerfile.

This allowed me to use the headless build options to generate makefiles and build my STM32 projects inside a ubuntu based docker image. I can now run:

"stm32cubeide -nosplash -application org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.core.headlessbuild -import . -build all".
