Java Arm Images

[rob-pomelo]

Hi! It seems arm images are built from python and a few other languages, but not for java. Is there any chance java arm images could be added? Thanks!

Pretty sure they are. What image are you using?

Running into the same for the :nonroot tag:

Pulling:

Noticed in other languages like Python there is tags like "nonroot-arm64":

docker pull gcr.io/distroless/python3:nonroot-arm64

Status: Downloaded newer image for gcr.io/distroless/python3:nonroot-arm64

However this no such images for java like:

docker pull gcr.io/distroless/java17:nonroot-arm64
Error response from daemon: manifest for gcr.io/distroless/java17:nonroot-arm64 not found: manifest unknown: Failed to fetch "nonroot-arm64" from request "/v2/distroless/java17/manifests/nonroot-arm64".

ah right, the "java17" image is not multi-arch. The "java17-debian11" image is though. So you can do docker pull gcr.io/distroless/java17-debian11:nonroot-arm64

[Daanoz]

Ah, so there are separate tags (/images) for other architectures. Are there any plans to support true multi architecture images with can be directly used with (docker buildx)[https://docs.docker.com/build/buildx/multiplatform-images/] so that the architecture is automatically resolved?

I currently worked around it with this, seems to work as long as your are in a Dockerfile:

FROM gcr.io/distroless/java17-debian11:nonroot-$TARGETARCH

Is this a duplicate of #606?
