debian-sysroot-image-creator/README.md

A set of scripts for creating linux sysroot images, copied from Chromium.

This fork adds some necessary dependencies for Electron, and upload the images to Electron's S3 bucket.

How it works

debian-sysroot-image-creator automatically builds and uploads images, the workflow is:

1. Push some commits to debian-sysroot-image-creator
2. CircleCI builds and uploads the image, and then generates the sysroots.json file
3. Download the sysroots.json file from the Artifacts tab of the CI job, and copy it to Electron

To verify if the scripts are working, run ./build/linux/sysroot_scripts/build_and_upload.py locally (on Linux)
