Janus Debian Package

Use CircleCI to build an ARMv7 Debian package for the Janus WebRTC server.

Overview

We use Docker as a build context for creating an ARMv7 (armhf) Debian package, with precompiled Janus binaries (see the Dockerfile for the complete build procedure). The resulting artifact is emitted to the build/ folder. For example:

build/janus_1.0.1-20220513_armhf.deb
