Docker: publish and document a Docker image for Infer #1717

Closed dsmiley closed 1 year ago

dsmiley commented 1 year ago

Infer is not trivial to build/install. Even if it were (very subjective), it has become popular for some build tools to be available as a Docker image to make it easy for consumers to obtain and run software. It standardizes it as well -- "docker run ...". Here, I ask that a Docker image be officially published and referenced & documented from the website.

Note that the "homebrew" option is currently a non-option, as of this writing, thus motivating me to file this issue.

I didn't notice this: https://github.com/facebook/infer/tree/main/docker but now I do. I found it linked from the bottom of https://fbinfer.com/docs/getting-started/ Too bad an existing image isn't publicized... I still have to go check out and build my own images.
