# Apktool in Docker We provide an easy way to leverage `apktool`, along with common Android tools such as `zipalign` and `apksigner`, all from within Docker. ## Building the Docker image To build the image, use the included Dockerfile: ```bash docker build -t apktool:latest . ``` ## Using the Docker image The best way to use the image is to create aliases to run the internal commands: ```bash alias apktool="docker run --rm -ti --name=apktool -v \"${PWD}:${PWD}\" -w \"${PWD}\" apktool:latest apktool" alias zipalign="docker run --rm -ti --name=zipalign -v \"${PWD}:${PWD}\" -w \"${PWD}\" apktool:latest zipalign" alias apksigner="docker run --rm -ti --name=apksigner -v \"${PWD}:${PWD}\" -w \"${PWD}\" apktool:latest apksigner" ``` ## Running the commands You can then utilize these commands as you would if they were natively installed: ```bash apktool d My.apk -o MyFolder apktool b MyFolder -o MyNew.apk zipalign -p -f 4 MyNew.apk MyNewAligned.apk apksigner sign --ks My.keystore MyNewAligned.apk ```
