How to Build and Release your Docker Container

Install Docker

Please follow the Apollo Software Installation Guide.

Build Apollo

Start container

We provide a build image named dev-latest. The Container will mount your local apollo repo to /apollo.

bash docker/scripts/dev_start.sh

Get into the container

bash docker/scripts/dev_into.sh

Build modules

bash apollo.sh build

Note: If you do not have a GPU, you can use the following script instead

bash apollo.sh build_cpu

Note: If your computer is very slow, you can enter the following command to limit the CPU.

bash apollo.sh build --local_resources 2048,1.0,1.0

What's next

  1. If at this point, you do not have a vehicle setup or you want to confirm that Apollo has been built out correctly, please continue to How to Launch and Run Apollo
  2. If you do have a vehicle setup, please continue back to our Software Installation guide

Build in Visual Studio Code

Install VSCode

The easiest way to install for Debian/Ubuntu based distributions is to download from https://code.visualstudio.com and install the .deb package (64-bit) either through the graphical software center if it's available or through the command line with:

sudo dpkg -i <file>.deb
sudo apt-get install -f # Install dependencies

Start VSCode

Start VSCode with the following command:

code

Open the Apollo project in VSCode

Use the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+K Ctrl+O) to open the Apollo project.

Build the Apollo project in VSCode

Use the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+B) to build the Apollo project.

Run all unit tests for the Apollo project in VSCode

Select the "Tasks->Run Tasks..." menu command and click "run all unit tests for the apollo project" from a popup menu to check the code style for the Apollo project.

If you are currently developing on 16.04, you will get a build error. As seen in the image below, 2 perception tests. To avoid this build error, refer to the how to build Apollo using Ubuntu 16.

Build error

Run a code style check task for the Apollo project in VSCode

Select the "Tasks->Run Tasks..." menu command and click "code style check for the apollo project" from a popup menu to check the code style for the Apollo project.

Clean the Apollo project in VSCode

Select the "Tasks->Run Tasks..." menu command and click "clean the apollo project" from a popup menu to clean the Apollo project.

Change the building option

You can change the "build" option to another one such as "build_gpu" (refer to the "apollo.sh" file for details) in ".vscode/tasks.json"

Test

bash docker/scripts/release_start.sh [release tag]

The HMI will automatically start and you can control each apollo module through any web browser by inputting IP address and port number, such as localhost:8887. You can get into the release container if quick fix needed.

bash docker/scripts/release_into.sh
