Multiple Distro Support
=======================
This project builds images for Deckhand component only. Currently, it
supports building images for ubuntu and opensuse ( leap 15.0 as base image).
By default, Ubuntu images are built and are published to public registry
server. Recently support for publishing opensuse image has been added.
If you need to build opensuse images locally, the following parameters
can be passed to the *make* command in deckhand repository's root
directory with *images* as target::
DISTRO: opensuse_15
DISTRO_BASE_IMAGE: "opensuse/leap:15.0"
DOCKER_REGISTRY: { your_docker_registry }
IMAGE_TAG: latest
PUSH_IMAGE: false
Following is an example in command format to build and publish images locally.
Command is run in deckhand repository's root directory.
make images DISTRO=opensuse_15 DOCKER_REGISTRY={ your_docker_registry} \
IMAGE_TAG=latest PUSH_IMAGE=true
Following parameters need to be passed as environment/shell variable to make
command:
DISTRO
parameter to identify distro specific Dockerfile, ubuntu_xenial (Default)
DISTRO_BASE_IMAGE
parameter to use different base image other than what's
used in DISTRO specific Dockerfile (optional)
DOCKER_REGISTRY
parameter to specify local/internal docker registry if need
to publish image (optional), quay.io (Default)
IMAGE_TAG
tag to be used for image built, untagged (Default)
PUSH_IMAGE
flag to indicate if images needs to be pushed to a docker
registry, false (Default)
This work is done as per approved spec `multi_distro_support`_. Currently only image
building logic is enhanced to support multiple distro.
Adding New Distro Support
--------------------------
To add support for building images for a new distro, following steps can be
followed.
#. Distro specific deckhand image can be built and tested locally first.
#. Add distro specific Dockerfile which will have steps to include necessary
packages and run environment configuration. Use existing Dockerfile as sample
to identify needed packages and environment information.
#. New dockerfile can be named as Dockefile.{DISTRO} where DISTRO is expected to be
distro identifier which is passed to makefile.
#. Respective dockerfile needs to be placed in {deckahnd_repo}/images/deckhand/
#. Add check, gate, and post jobs for building, testing and publishing images. These
entries need to be added in {deckhand_repo}/.zuul.yaml file. You may refer to
existing zuul file to opensuse support to understand its usage pattern.
#. Add any relevant information to this document.
