How to Build IodeOs with Docker

Why Docker?

Using Docker ensures all required dependencies are pre-installed and properly configured.
You don’t need to install complex toolchains or modify your host system.

---

Requirements

Software

• Docker
  Install Docker using the official script:

  curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh
  

• Git Install Git

• Repo tool Install the Google repo tool:

  mkdir -p ~/bin
  curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
  chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
  export PATH=~/bin:$PATH
  

Hardware

• Disk: ~300 GB (source code and build artifacts). SSD recommended

• CPU: 64-bit processor (Intel i5/i7 or AMD Ryzen 5/7 and above recommended, 8 cores or more preferred)

• Memory:

  • Minimum: 16 GB RAM
  • Bare minimum: 8 GB RAM (with swap; builds will be very slow and unstable)

---

Usage

1. Clone this repo to your local machine and navigate into it:

   git clone https://git.os-source.co/IodeOs/build.git
   cd build
   

2. Initialize and sync the repo into the IodeOs/build checkout directory:

   repo init -u https://git.os-source.co/IodeOs/manifests_android -b v6-staging --git-lfs
   

3. Sync the repo (this may take a while):

   repo sync
   

   💡 Tip: You can speed up and stabilize the sync process with additional options:

   repo sync -c -j$(nproc --all) --force-sync --no-clone-bundle --no-tags -f
   

   • -c : Sync only the current manifest branch
   • -j$(nproc --all) : Use all available CPU cores for parallel sync
   • --force-sync : Discard local changes and ensure a clean state
   • --no-clone-bundle : Skip using potentially outdated pre-packaged bundles
   • --no-tags : Avoid downloading all Git tags (saves time/space)
   • -f : Continue syncing other projects even if one fails

4. Start the build with Docker:

   docker compose up -d
   

5. Check the build logs and wait:

   docker logs -f repo_build_iode
   

6. Once the "build completed successfully" message appears in the logs (this typically takes 90–240 minutes, depending on your hardware and the number of threads used), navigate to the "out/target/product/brax3" folder to find your OTA package or fastboot images.

   ls -la out/target/product/brax3 | grep lineage_brax3-ota.zip
   -rw-r--r--  1 root root 1424506068 Sep 30 18:34 lineage_brax3-ota.zip

Troubleshooting

Repo tool not found

If you see:

command not found: repo

Make sure ~/bin is in your PATH:

export PATH=~/bin:$PATH

Add it to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc to make the change permanent.

---

Repo sync is very slow or stalls

• Use more jobs with -j<number> (e.g. repo sync -j16) if you have a fast CPU and good network.

• If syncing fails, retry with:

  repo sync --force-sync --no-clone-bundle --no-tags
