Add prebuilds for arm* architectures #190

Open Apollon77 opened 2 months ago

Apollon77 commented 2 months ago

A build on Raspi 4 takes 12 minutes, I did not tried Raspi 3 :-)

So yes adding the usual arm architectures (arm64, armv7, armv6) - maybe see relevant list from a noble repo at https://github.com/stoprocent/node-bluetooth-hci-socket/blob/main/.github/workflows/build.yml#L14 might be a good idea

Ohh I see that it was started with https://github.com/thegecko/webbluetooth/pull/133/files already

Yeah, I couldn't get prebuildify to work with cmake-js which would prebuild a lot more binaries and include them with the package. Feel free to continue my work.

The setup on node-usb may help

Apollon77 commented 2 months ago

Ok, I had a look ... so in fact for prebuildify it would be needed to use own docker images or to add cmake to the "prebuild" docker images. But this might not be enough because we might need also to allow adding custom package luke libudev-dev or such to the docker images dynamically ... thats then an even more interesting topic. I'm not deep in docker currently, so need to see if I jump on that topic ...

thegecko commented 2 months ago

I use custom docker images for node-usb, see: https://github.com/node-usb/docker-images.

Specifially: https://github.com/node-usb/docker-images/blob/main/linux-arm64/Dockerfile

Apollon77 commented 2 months ago

Would it make sense to add cmake there too to share those or do we need another repo for having cmake available? Then I could only provide them as "personal repo" unless you would like to add them here ...

thegecko commented 2 months ago

Hmm, we could add cmake there. If we need to split them in future, we can then worry about separate repos

Apollon77 commented 2 months ago

Do you want to do that or should I try to add a PR if I find time and get that tackled somehow? ;-) (my Docker knowledge is more limited :-)

thegecko commented 2 months ago

I have little time. Can you try to get a prebuild flow setup using those containers and we can add tools as needed.

Apollon77 commented 2 months ago

No promises currently. Also my time is limited and that task is far away from my comfort and knowledge zone tbh ... so I most likely will need a lot of time ... let's see
