Dockerfile that produces an image the contain all nessary prerequisites for working with Android in C++/Qt

Currently this docker file is non parametrized but there are plans to make it generic as much as possible Here is what the image contains

• Java 8
• SDK26 + tools, platform-tools, build-tools
• NDK 21
• Emulator and some basic device
• Qt installer
• noVNC

You can build image yourself via Dockerfile or pull the build image from dockerhub

docker pull hopar/android_prerequisites_sdk26_ndk21

To build image yourself

  docker built -t android_cppdev_prerequisites .

To run, simply do

  docker run -p 5903:5903 -p 5901:5901 --privileged android_cppdev_prerequisites

Container then can be accessed via vnc connection ( password:123456 )

• option1: via browser http://localhost:5901/vnc.html ( using noVNC )
• option2: any vncviewer on localhost:3

Its also possible to deploy c++ applications to real devices. There are rwo approaches

• running via shared USB

  docker run -p 5903:5903 -p 5901:5901 --privileged -v /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb <img> 

• running by running ADB on host ( requires same version platform-tools on host and starting adb on host first )

  docker run -p 5903:5903 -p 5901:5901 --privileged --network=host <img>
