Image variants

freeradius/freeradius-server:<version>

The de-facto image which should be used unless you know you need
another image. It is based on Ubuntu Linux Docker images.

freeradius/freeradius-server:<version>-alpine

Image based on the Alpine Linux Docker images, which are much smaller
than most Linux distributions. To keep the basic size as small as
possible, this image does not include libraries for all modules that
have been built (especially the languages such as Perl or Python).
Therefore these extra libraries will need to be installed with apk add
in your own Dockerfile if you intend on using modules that require
them.

Building Docker images

The FreeRADIUS source contains Dockerfiles for several Linux
distributions. They are in freeradius-server/scripts/docker/<os_name>.

Build an image with

$ cd scripts/docker/<os_name>
$ docker build . -t freeradius-<os_name>

This will download the OS base image, install/build any dependencies
as necessary, perform a shallow clone of the FreeRADIUS source and
build the server.
