Lite XL Build Box

This is a Docker image of the setup used to build Lite XL. It is based on Ubuntu 18.04 with some workarounds to ensure libdecor support.

Notes

Before installing anything, you will need to uninstall libdecor-0-dev and libdecor-0 to prevent any broken dependencies error during installation.

Installed packages

• ccache
• sudo
• build-essential
• python3
• python3-pip
• git
• cmake
• meson
• ninja
• libfuse2
• wayland-protocols
• libsdl2-dev
• libdecor-0 (package yanked from Ubuntu 20.04)
• libdecor-0-dev (package yanked from Ubuntu 20.04)

Step Entrypoint

When using this container image (v2.2.0 and above) in a step (with docker://), you can pass a script directly, similar to run by specifying entrypoint: /entrypoint.sh. For example:

- name: Build AppImages
  uses: docker://ghcr.io/lite-xl/lite-xl-build-box:v2.2.0
  with:
    entrypoint: /entrypoint.sh
    args: |
      bash scripts/appimage.sh --debug --static --version ${INSTALL_REF} --release
      bash scripts/appimage.sh --debug --nobuild --addons --version ${INSTALL_REF}

If you don't use the entrypoint, GitHub Actions will concatenate all the lines into a single line.
