Set up and verify the SDK

The ACAP SDK image, available on Docker Hub, is based on Ubuntu and contains the environment needed for building an AXIS Camera Application Platform (ACAP) application. It includes all tools for building and packaging an ACAP 3 application as well as API components (header and library files) needed for accessing different parts of the camera firmware.

The SDK image can be used as a basis for custom built images to run your application, or as a developer environment inside the container.

To set up and verify the SDK, build, install and run the Hello World example on GitHub.
