Hi all, I've been wanting this for a long time and I think we're almost there - I'd like us to start offering docker images of 389 Directory Server as part of our upstream release process. I have discussed this with Mark already and we both think we are reasonably happy with the idea and the state we're in. -- The Technical Process and Details: As there is significant interest within SUSE for containerised 389, as well as open tooling as part of build.opensuse.org, the current proposed process is: Source Release -> OBS:network:ldap -> OBS:389-ds-container -> docker hub Because this pipeline is automated between source to the container, and this is already part of my responsibility as the SUSE package manager, it's a small amount of effort to then mirror the container to docker hub. I have already established an organisation on docker hub, and will be giving Mark access to be able to manage this as well. https://cloud.docker.com/u/389ds/repository/list Initially we'll name the image as: 389ds/dirsrv:1.4.rc Once we are happy with the process, and have received some community feedback we'll move to: 389ds/dirsrv:1.4.1 389ds/dirsrv:1.4.2 389ds/dirsrv:1.4 # points to latest 1.4.X 389ds/dirsrv:latest # points to newest version We would of course encourage people to use the "latest" tag. -- Support During the rc phase we would announce that the container support is "best effort" and we'll obviously work to resolve issues, but it's not suitable for production work loads. Once we are happy with this for a few releases, we'll move to the same support levels as our normal releases - best effort community, and patch backporting as we normally do. For official support, contact a vendor like SUSE or Red Hat. -- Future / Downstreams The design of the container integration is such that we should be able to easily swap the suse/fedora/rhel as the base image, so downstreams should be able to easily adopt the dscontainer tool and have customers pivot from the upstream image to their vendor image quite easily. A future container option is to supply a tools container that has a shell + ds* tools, so that you can have a work flow such as: docker run -v 389ds:/data 389ds/dirsrv:latest docker run -i -t -v 389ds:/data 389ds/tools:latest # shell inside of the tools container # dsconf .... -- Testing today: To test the image as it exists today: docker pull registry.opensuse.org/home/firstyear/containers/389-ds-container:latest Thoughts and feedback? If there are no objects, I'll push the rc to docker hub early next week (2nd or 3rd of Sep) -- Sincerely, William _______________________________________________ 389-devel mailing list -- 389-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to 389-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/389-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
