A `Dockerfile` to build YugabyteDB from source.

Dockerfile

FROM ubuntu:latest

RUN apt update
RUN apt upgrade -y
RUN apt install -y autoconf build-essential ccache curl file g++ gcc gettext git golang libffi-dev locales maven ninja-build npm patchelf pkg-config python3 python3-dev python3-venv rsync

# Somehow, the repo contains files with names longer than 255 characters.
# I bypassed this locally with a virtual filesystem.
# The build problem is the same though, so I assume it's OK to just ignore those files for this Dockerfile-based test.
RUN git clone https://github.com/yugabyte/yugabyte-db && echo OK || echo "Long file names, but sigh, proceeding."

RUN (cd yugabyte-db; ./yb_build.sh release)
