Fedora & Containers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Will anybody be able to explain to me the current state of the
containers & containerization in Fedora, please?

I have some questions, but the more I searched for whom & where to
ask, the more confused I became.

--

1) There ́s an IRC on freenode, '#fedora-containers' channel.
The TOPIC set contains the following message:
"The place for container runtimes and application containers.
Forums @ https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/c/containers,
visit the site @ https://containers.fedoraproject.org
(website operational at some point in August)."
However no link mentioned are accessible.

2) There is 'Fedora Container & Tools Documentation' [1]
It is only half-filled with information, some part missing entirely.
Even parts as 'Container Guidelines' [2].
Btw the wiki gladly redirects there ^ [3].
Btw there are some scratch notes about the guidelines from damn 2017
[4], which google offers me rather than the actual guidelines (because
they don't exist)

3) So ... who is in charge of it? Whom to contact? How? Where?
Does Fedora count with Containers or does it already thrown it overboard?

4) The container I am maintainer of (in pagure in 'container'
namespace) is not branched automatically. The last branch is 'f30',
but now I want to update it and add the missing branches. I have no
idea how should I do it though, since (1) (2) are such a mess.
I can try 'git push', but anyway, it won't solve the issue, it's not
branched automatically.

5) The Dockerfile (are we still using this name? shouldn't it be
'containerfile' now, with podman?)
starts with line like:
" FROM registry.fedoraproject.org/f30/....."
How can I substitute the Fedora release version with a variable, so I
can share the same content amongst branches for different Fedora
releases?
