OWAS Container Build

The OWAS container provides a reproducible build environment for the OWAS project.

We manage the dependencies using the Spack Package Manager, with the notable exceptions of LibreLane and ghdl:

• for ghdl, we convert the ghdl/ghdl:bookworm-mcode OCI image to SIF and embed it into this container
• for LibreLane, we use the official nix-based build flow to build and embed a SIF image into this container

Building

An apptainer installation guide is available here: https://apptainer.org/docs/admin/latest/installation.html

apptainer build owas.img owas-container.def

Please check the collection of common problems in case you encounter any issue during the build.
