How to pre-install more packages for CI/CD? #9

Closed 1kastner closed 5 years ago

1kastner commented 5 years ago

I'd like to have more pre-installed packages, not the lightweight solution. I started with texlive-full but locally as we use miktex I realized that there are small version differences so what locally works does not work on the server. Therefore, I wanted to harmonize the setting. Is there a commandline argument I could use for installing more tex packages? Like 

If you have just installed MiKTeX, then you have the option to upgrade your
installation to a standard TeX system. Just click the Upgrade button. 
Please be aware that this starts a ~200MB download.

but just from the commandline. For CI/CD later the already-prepared docker image would be pulled (from an internal repo) and then the runtime should be rather low and the need of network communication as well.

See the Dockerfile in #8.

Unfortunately the docker file is not available anymore. Do you still got a working example for a CI build? We have the problem that the image is not installing packages on the fly and neither are we able to usempm --install=packagelist because for almost all packages it says FATAL mpmcli - The requested package is unknown.

I am sorry but I don't have it anymore.
