# Using Docker

Camoufox can be built through Docker on all platforms.

  1. Create the Docker image containing Firefox's source code:
docker build -t camoufox-builder .
  1. Build Camoufox patches to a target platform and architecture:
docker run -v "$(pwd)/dist:/app/dist" camoufox-builder --target <os> --arch <arch>
How can I use my local ~/.mozbuild directory?

If you want to use the host's .mozbuild directory, you can use the following command instead to run the docker:

docker run \
  -v "$HOME/.mozbuild":/root/.mozbuild:rw,z \
  -v "$(pwd)/dist:/app/dist" \
  camoufox-builder \
  --target <os> \
  --arch <arch>

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --target {linux,windows,macos} [{linux,windows,macos} ...]
                        Target platforms to build
  --arch {x86_64,arm64,i686} [{x86_64,arm64,i686} ...]
                        Target architectures to build for each platform
  --bootstrap           Bootstrap the build system
  --clean               Clean the build directory before starting

Example:
$ docker run -v "$(pwd)/dist:/app/dist" camoufox-builder --target windows macos linux --arch x86_64 arm64 i686

Build artifacts will now appear written under the dist/ folder.
