Question on further patches I could send (x86 images) #5

Open depau opened 4 years ago

Since I'm going to need up-to-date Arch/ALARM images for other further work of my own, I actually forked your repo on my git server and performed some (quite minor) changes (other than the ones for which I already sent you pull requests).

Possibly interesting ones:

I additionally:

Let me know if you're interested in any of these and I'll send you the patches.

x86_64 image

I am all in adding a x8664 image, with that we have a true multi-arch image :-) I probably would not want to "compete" with the official one: https://hub.docker.com//archlinux/

What is your approach? Build it from scratch too or just use the official one and make it part of the multi-arch image?

Drone.io CI config

Actually I get some weird notifications every now and then from Travis CI, and also otherwise wansn't very happy how they handled the move to newer Ubuntu version. So I am all in trying drone.io instead.

Renamed all the Dockerfiles to archlinux CPU architecture names

Yeah not sure about that one. After all, we cannot create a multi-image with arbitrary architecture names, it must be what Docker specifies/offers...

Removed all the qemu and the other scripts since I build the images on their target architecture

Can this be done on drone.io?

I used the official image to build the first image, then used it to build the following ones. I don't think the point is to "compete" with the official image: I think your approach is better since you build using just Docker and no external tools.

In my case I just need it because I want it to be as up-to-date as possible since I'll be using it to build packages, that's why I added it.

It should also be quite easy to add an ArchLinux32 build.

Sure, I can send a PR my Drone config. I see that they have a hosted instance that is free for open-source projects: https://cloud.drone.io/

Yes, don't worry, it's just me :)

Can this be done on drone.io?

I'm using my own iron, so yes. I'm running the x86 builds on an x86 machine and the arm builds on a Rock64. Drone supports different architectures and OSs.

I actually set up a qemu-user-static-based runner too, however that cannot be used to build docker images since:

But again, the naming and script removal changes are just for my setup to clean up my repo, I mentioned them for the sake of completeness but don't worry about them :)
