Make build not working in golang:alpine container

[rafaveira3]

I would like to build enry via Makefile to get the command enry --version work properly. However, when building it inside a golang:alpine container, I keep having the following issues:

$ docker run -it golang:alpine
/go # apk update && apk upgrade
...

/go # apk add --no-cache alpine-sdk git make
...

/go # git clone https://github.com/src-d/enry.git code && cd code && make build

Can someone guide me on how to overcome this? 🙃

It looks like we have hard-coded /bin/bash in a some of the subdirectory Makefiles. Possibly we should try not to do that, but for now I would suggest you add apk add --no-cache bash to your setup.

Yup, @creachadair is absolutely right - adding that should allow for our CI makefile to stop failing due to bash command missing.

@rafaveira3 that is what I did locally and it seems to work:

$ docker run -it golang:alpine
$ apk add --no-cache git make bash
$ git clone https://github.com/src-d/enry.git
$ cd enry; make packages
$ ./build/enry_linux_amd64/enry

Going to close this issue if there is no further questions. But please feel free to re-open it in case something is still not working.

Thanks for the help, @bzz and @creachadair! It worked! 🙃
