Docker-images: GraalVM 19.0.0 Docker image does not contain `native-image`

[aboullaite]

Hello,

I've recently tried to update from graalvm-ce:1.0.0-rc16 to graalvm-ce:19.0.0, but my Dockerfile fails with the error:

/bin/sh: native-image: command not found

I've looked into the generated image files and it does not contain the native-image command binary

The is the normal behavior!

https://www.graalvm.org/docs/release-notes/ Native Image was extracted from the base GraalVM distribution. Currently it is available as an early adopter plugin.

native-image is currently not included, you can install it with gu install native-image .

@mzachh when i do gu install native-image i am getting the error gu command not found..

sudo gu install native-image
sudo: gu: command not found .

@MeenakshiHakeem with the offical docker image it should just work, gu should be already in the path.

I assume you are using graalvm in an other way. gu is shipped with graalvm in the "bin" directory.

@mzachh got it thanks

I'm wondering whether you guys would consider providing an official Docker image that has native-image pre-installed.

At Micronaut we use oracle/graalvm-ce:$tag a lot, and have to always run gu install native-image. It'll save time for users if it would come pre-installed.
