Hi, I want to build the docker images for airbyte from source, can anyone here help me with the docker build steps for airbyte docker images?

Sure, I can help you with that. Here are the steps to build Docker images for Airbyte: 1. Build the Docker Image for Airbyte: You can run Airbyte on your local machine as a separate Docker Compose project. Follow these [instructions](https://docs.airbyte.io/quickstart/deploy-airbyte) to get it up and running. 2. Build a Docker Image for a Connector: If you are building a new connector, you need to build a Docker container for it. For example, if you are building a Webflow source connector, you can build a new Docker container by running the following command in the Webflow source connector directory:
Copy code
bash docker build . -t airbyte/source-blog-webflow:dev
You can verify that the new image has been created by running
docker images
. 3. Build the Platform with Gradle: To compile and build the platform, run the following command in your local
airbyte-platform
repository:
Copy code
bash SUB_BUILD=PLATFORM ./gradlew build
This will build all the code and run all the unit tests. It creates all the necessary artifacts (Webapp, Jars and Docker images) so that you can run Airbyte locally. 4. Build Docker Images with Gradle: The gradle task
generate-docker
allows you to build all the Docker images. 5. Adding a New Docker Build: If you have a
Dockerfile
, you can generate the Docker image by creating a
gradle.properties
file in the subproject with the
dockerImageName
property set to the Docker image name. Then, you can define your own task to copy the necessary files and configure the build Docker task to depend on this custom copy task in the subproject's
build.gradle
. 6. Rebuilding a Docker Image: If you need to rebuild a Docker image, for example, the
airbyte-proxy
image, you can do so by running
docker build . -t airbyte-proxy:{VERSION YOU DECIDED}
in the
airbyte-proxy
directory. Then, change this in your Docker Compose file. Note that if you run
docker-compose up
, it will pull from Dockerhub and won't rebuild the containers. Please refer to the [Airbyte documentation](https://docs.airbyte.io) and [tutorials](https://airbyte.io/tutorials) for more detailed instructions.
