Zig Container

a basic alpine:latest based container image including zig By running anyzig.

Using this image, it is crucial to set the following environment variables to a path that will be cached, as anyzig will download the zig compiler on each run otherwise:

XDG_DATA_HOME: $CI_PROJECT_DIR/.zig-cache/appdata
ZIG_GLOBAL_CACHE_DIR: $CI_PROJECT_DIR/.zig-cache/global
ZIG_LOCAL_CACHE_DIR: $CI_PROJECT_DIR/.zig-cache/local

:$ docker run -it --rm registry.gitlab.com/dasimmet/zig-container:latest zig 0.14.1 zen
anyzig: appdata '/root/.local/share/anyzig'
anyzig: downloading 'https://ziglang.org/download/0.14.1/zig-x86_64-linux-0.14.1.tar.xz'...
anyzig: downloaded zig-0.14.1 to '/root/.cache/zig/p/N-V-__8AAHqaixIK5xkCeDRdXNzskekn9i1dos0md02qAkgD'
