+# What is Dart?
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Dart is a client-optimized language for developing fast apps on any platform. Its goal is to offer the most productive programming language for multi-platform development, paired with a flexible execution runtime platform for app frameworks. For more details, see https://dart.dev.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+By utilizing Dart's support for ahead-of-time (AOT) [compilation to executables](https://dart.dev/tools/dart-compile#exe), you can create very small runtime images (~10 MB).

+## Using this image
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+We recommend creating small runtime images by leveraging Dart's support for ahead-of-time (AOT) [compilation to executables](https://dart.dev/tools/dart-compile#exe). This enables creating small runtime images (~10 MB).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The following `Dockerfile` performs two steps:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+1. Using the Dart SDK in the `dart:stable` image, compiles your server (`bin/server.dart`) to an executable (`server`).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+2. Assembles the runtime image by combining the compiled server with the Dart VM runtime and it's needed dependencies located in `/runtime/`.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+```Dockerfile
|
|
|
+# Specify the Dart SDK base image version using dart:<version> (ex: dart:2.12)
|
|
|
+FROM dart:stable AS build
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# Resolve app dependencies.
|
|
|
+WORKDIR /app
|
|
|
+COPY pubspec.* .
|
|
|
+RUN dart pub get
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# Copy app source code and AOT compile it.
|
|
|
+COPY . .
|
|
|
+RUN dart compile exe bin/server.dart -o /server
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# Build minimal serving image from AOT-compiled `/server` and required system
|
|
|
+# libraries and configuration files stored in `/runtime/` from the build stage.
|
|
|
+FROM scratch
|
|
|
+COPY --from=build /runtime/ /
|
|
|
+COPY --from=build /server /bin/
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# Start server.
|
|
|
+EXPOSE 8080
|
|
|
+CMD ["/bin/server"]
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If you have [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/get-started) installed, you can build and run on your machine with the `docker` command:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+```shell
|
|
|
+$ docker build -t dart-server .
|
|
|
+$ docker run -it --rm -p 8080:8080 --name myserver dart-server
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+When finished, you can stop the container using the name you provided:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+```shell
|
|
|
+$ docker kill myserver
|
|
|
+```
