Originally created by @breakingflower on GitHub (Oct 22, 2020).

I wanted to build for ARMv7 using your Dockerfile, straight from docker-compose.

Usefull system info:

pi@naspi:~/rpi4_server $ cat /proc/device-tree/model
Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.1
pi@naspi:~/rpi4_server $ uname -a 
Linux naspi 5.4.51-v7l+ #1333 SMP Mon Aug 10 16:51:40 BST 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux
pi@naspi:~/rpi4_server $ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Raspbian
Description:    Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Release:        10
Codename:       buster
pi@naspi:~/rpi4_server $ docker --version
Docker version 19.03.13, build 4484c46
pi@naspi:~/rpi4_server $ docker-compose --version
docker-compose version 1.27.4, build unknown

The docker-compose build is unknown due to it being installed with pip3 (only way to get up to date docker-compose version).

I use the following compose file, copied largely from this

  planka:
    image: fremmen/planka:armv7
    build: https://github.com/plankanban/planka.git
    command: >
      bash -c
        "for i in `seq 1 30`; do
          ./start.sh &&
          s=$$? && break || s=$$?;
          echo \"Tried $$i times. Waiting 5 seconds...\";
          sleep 5;
        done; (exit $$s)"
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - ${CLOUD_ROOT}/planka/user-avatars:/app/public/user-avatars
      - ${CLOUD_ROOT}/planka/project-background-images:/app/public/project-background-images
      - ${CLOUD_ROOT}/planka/attachments:/app/public/attachments
    ports:
      - "${PLANKA_PORT}:1337"
    environment:
      - BASE_URL=XXXXXX
      - DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres@postgres/planka
      - SECRET_KEY=XXXXXXXX
    depends_on:
      - plankadb

Building the fremmen/planka:arm image is done using docker-compose build planka. The following errors occur:

The required dependencies for sharp show that there are no sharp prebuild libvips.

The following platforms have prebuilt libvips but not sharp:

    Linux ARMv6
    Linux ARMv7 (glibc >= 2.28)

Would be great to be able to build straight from GitHub for ARMv7!

@breakingflower commented on GitHub (Oct 22, 2020):

Upon further inspection, it can be observed that the generated download link for the sharp binaries is incorrect

info sharp Downloading https://github.com/lovell/sharp-libvips/releases/download/v8.10.0/libvips-8.10.0-linuxmusl-armv7.tar.br

I'm not sure why the linux version is translated into linuxmusl instead of just linux. Maybe this error is not planka related but sharp-libvips. The file https://github.com/lovell/sharp-libvips/releases/download/v8.10.2-alpha2/libvips-8.10.2-linux-armv7.tar.br does exist.

After a full day of trying, I was able to compile libvips from the source. Sharp is successfully installed after that. Checking how Planks works with that and will commit this.
