sagu/mozilla repository overview

⁠Mozilla build environment in docker

⁠What's included

• all dependencies for building firefox
• MozPhab
• hg is configured (except with your username)
• you can even run firefox from docker

⁠Some instructions

To access bash (change '/home/user/mozilla-central' to your mozilla-central folder):

docker run -it --rm --volume="$HOME/.Xauthority:/root/.Xauthority:rw" --env="DISPLAY" --net=host -v /home/$USER/mozilla-central:/mozilla sagu/mozilla

or if you do not plan to use GUI:

docker run -it --rm -v /home/$USER/mozilla-central:/mozilla sagu/mozilla

To store data of phab and setups use:

docker run -it --rm --volume="$HOME/.Xauthority:/root/.Xauthority:rw" --env="DISPLAY" --net=host -v /home/$USER/mozilla-central:/mozilla -v /home/$USER/data:/home/wizard sagu/mozilla

first mach bootstrap could take long.

⁠First time

If you do not have mozilla-central folder yet, you make an empty directory:

mkdir -p /home/$USER/mozilla-central

and then run above Docker command. When you get to shell type:

hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/ .

and then you are ready to help firefox.

⁠Every time run when you enter container run:

./mach bootstrap

⁠Set up username in repo

nano ./hg/hgrc
