FFMpeg.framework
Build instructions
To build FFMpeg.framework a docker or podman installation is required.
It is recomended to enable BuildKit in docker.
Just run the following inside this directory:
$> docker build -o . .
or
$> podman build -o . .
After some time (it takes aroung 15min in Github CI) a directory named ffmpeg will show up with both a x86_64 and arm64 directory inside,
both will have a FFMpeg.framework for their respective architecture.
How does the build process work?
The FFMpeg.framework is built inside an Alpine Linux container that contains a copy of osxcross, which is a cross toolchain that enables building native macOS binaries on Linux. Most of the build process is similar to how you would do it in macOS. The main advantage of using osxcross is that it handles the configuration for both x86 and arm64 and all the required compiling tools without the need for Xcode and with a more direct and easier managment of macOS SDKs. Any required macOS dependencies are handled by a MacPorts-compatible package manager.
