This is a docker image containing the distributed compiler "distcc" meant to speed up the compilation of programs.
After building, execute:
docker run \
-it \
--restart=always \
-p 3632:3632 \
-p 3633:3633 \
wizardrysteamworks/distcc
where:
3632 is the distcc port,3633 is the distcc stats portHere is the corresponding Docker compose file:
version: "3.7"
services:

ports:
- "35001-35002:3632" # distcc

Typically the image will be distributed to a Docker swarm and ran for as many nodes available to compile programs. Then, when compiling, the hosts will be specified using the DISTCC_HOSTS environment variable. For example:
export DISTCC_HOSTS="docker1:35001 docker2:35002" CC=distcc CXX=distcc
where docker1 and docker2 represent hosts on which distcc will be running and 35001, respectively 35002 will be the corresponding ports.
The environment variables CC and CXX remap the C, respectively C++ compiler to distcc. Internally, the container is built to have clang as the compiler.
