Repository Overview (README excerpt)
Crawler viewdockerc - compile docker images to standalone portable binaries No more [ ][4] No more , no more , no more , just give your users executables they can run! Usage Install dockerc from the latest release. The output binary can then be called as you would with usual binaries. You can also specify , and in the same way you would when using . Networked services running inside the container can be accessed directly without having to specify . Skopeo is used for loading images, for other locations refer to [its documentation][1]. Build from source Please note that this project uses Git submodules. If you clone this repository, you may need to run the following commands to initialize and update the submodules: This will ensure that you download and update all relevant submodule contents. dockerc uses a patched version of the zig compiler than can be found on the [nils-dockerc-version branch][5] of the NilsIrl/zig repository. There is an [open PR][6] for the patch to be included in upstream zig.
