Usually run with the binary to be debugged mounted into the container. You could also copy the dlv binary (which is linked statically) out of the container into the to-be-debugged container, e.g. if you use this image in a K8s InitContainer.

There are two images built from this source: delve and delve-sumo. The former contains only dlv (in a alpine base image, ~25 MB), the latter also contains telepresence, kubectl and other random debugging utils (~950 MB).

IMPORTANT: You need to run the container with --security-opt seccomp:unconfined. Otherwise Delve will abort with could not launch process: fork/exec <binary>: operation not permitted.

Binaries need to be compiled with debugging symbols (-gcflags 'all=-N -l') for Delve to work with them.

Sample invocation, assuming the binary to be debugged is located at output/binary on the host:

docker run --security-opt seccomp:unconfined -v `pwd`/output:/output -p 2345:2345 oklischat/delve --listen=:2345 --headless=true --api-version=2 exec /output/binary -- <arguments>

You should now be able to connect any debugging client running on the host (e.g delve itself, or an IDE like Goland) to the debugged process at localhost:2345.

The images are multi-arch, currently linux/amd64 and linux/arm64. Docker will automatically choose the one matching the local system.
