# Docker images containing installer for Oracle JDK 8 and 11 on Windows
2+
3+
This folder contains Dockerfiles to build images that contain Oracle JDK 8 or 11 installer for Windows.
4+
We need such image because no [official Oracle JDK image](https://container-registry.oracle.com/ords/ocr/ba/java/jdk) for Windows architecture exists to this date.
5+
These image purpose is to help install Oracle JDK 8 and 11 on the GitHub Windows action runner.
6+
The runner will create the image containing the JDK installer and copy it locally for installation after which the started image is discarded.
7+
For example, the runner will do the following steps to retrieve JDK 8 installer:
8+
9+
```console
10+
$container_id=$(docker create "ghcr.io/scalar-labs/oracle/jdk:8-windows")
11+
docker cp "${container_id}:oracle-jdk.exe" .
12+
docker rm "$container_id"
13+
//Continue with the JDK installation
14+
```
15+
16+
The capability of the `mcr.microsoft.com/oss/kubernetes/windows-host-process-containers-base-image` base image is irrelevant since the container is never run.
17+
It was selected solely because its memory footprint is very light (7KB).
18+
19+
## How to build the images
20+
### Download the JDK installer
21+
22+
Download the `Windows x64 Installer` installer from [Oracle website](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/archive/#JavaSE) for JDK 8 and 11. An Oracle account (registration is free) is needed.
23+
24+
Then put the downloaded files in the corresponding directories with the Dockerfile
25+
26+
### Build the Docker images
27+
28+
These builds steps are directly taken from the base image `mcr.microsoft.com/oss/kubernetes/windows-host-process-containers-base-image` [GitHub repository](https://github.com/microsoft/windows-host-process-containers-base-image?tab=readme-ov-file#build-with-buildkit).
29+
30+
To be able to build a Windows image on a Linux machine, we need to create a specific build environment.
31+
32+
```console
33+
docker buildx create --name img-builder --use --platform windows/amd64
34+
```
35+
36+
Since the image requires a Windows architecture, it cannot be exported locally after being build,
37+
we need to push it to the registry right away.
38+
39+
The following commands will build then push the Windows image to the Scalar GitHub registry.
40+
41+
#### For JDK 8
42+
43+
```console
44+
docker buildx build --platform windows/amd64 --output=type=registry -t ghcr.io/scalar-labs/oracle/jdk:8-windows -t ghcr.io/scalar-labs/oracle/jdk:8u401-windows ./8
45+
```
46+
47+
#### For JDK 11
48+
49+
```console
50+
docker buildx build --platform windows/amd64 --output=type=registry -t ghcr.io/scalar-labs/oracle/jdk:11-windows -t ghcr.io/scalar-labs/oracle/jdk:11.0.22-windows ./11
51+
