By default, Skaffold automatically detects your target cluster's architecture and builds an image that matches your workstation's architecture, even if your target cluster's architecture is mixed (both x86 and Arm).
You also have the option to add an environment variable in your IDE or a parameter in your skaffold.yaml
file that specifies what platform to build for, which overrides Skaffold's automatic detection.
If you want to override Skaffold's automatic detection when building your image, you can specify the platform that you want to build images for in the following ways:
SKAFFOLD_PLATFORM
environment variable to your IDE's configurations.platforms
parameter to your skaffold.yaml
file.The following list shows the possible values for the SKAFFOLD_PLATFORM
environment variable in your IDE's Environment variables field. You can also use these values for the --platform
flag in your CLI, or the platforms
parameter in your skaffold.yaml
file:
amd64
aarch64
linux/amd64
linux/aarch64
Add environment variables to your IDE's configurations
To add environment variables to Cloud Code's configurations, follow these steps:
In your IDE, click Run > Edit Configurations.
In the Run tab, under the Advanced Settings snippet, enter your environment variable in the Environment variables field.
For example: SKAFFOLD_PLATFORM=linux/aarch64
This overrides Skaffold's automatic detection and builds the image type that you specified. Your skaffold.yaml
file remains unchanged.
To specify the platform you want to build your image for, add the platforms
parameter to your skaffold.yaml
file:
build:
platforms: ["linux/aarch64"]
artifacts:
- image: example
