How to build testcontainers-java on ARM Mac?

[dawngerpony]

Based on my comment here, I am unable to run ./gradlew build or ./gradlew check on an M2 Mac without a failure from azure-cosmos-emulator. What's the best way for me to build testcontainers-java on an ARM Mac? I'm keen to contribute!

Hi, don't need to build the whole project. I wonder what's the reason. If interested in contributing, first, please discuss your idea with the team. Do yo want to try a specific module? Try ./gradlew :<module>:check. It could still be possible that some modules use image versions without arm support, in that case, check docker hub instead of reporting issues against those images.

I was only trying to build the entire project locally because I thought it would be good hygiene to get full green build before making a contribution. After working through additional similar issues with couchbase, cassandra, db2 etc I am starting to see that this project is not going to build fully without quite a lot of work, and potentially ignoring a bunch of tests on ARM architecture Macs. So I might give up and just raise my PR! Thanks 🙏
