Docker Base Image #182

Open osrf-migration opened 7 years ago

osrf-migration commented 7 years ago

Original report (archived issue) by Rud Merriam (Bitbucket: rmerriam).

I've been working on the docker setup locally with some success, which is amazing.

Suggestion: The docker file "FROM" command uses an existing image as the base for a new image. The example fcomputer uses

#!c++

FROM ros:indigo-ros-base

to start the docker build. How about creating a base image, src_base, that contains the other ROS, OpenCV, IHMC, srcsim, etc software that is going to be used by all of us. This would greatly speed up the deployment to the field computer. Teams could still add more to their image on deployment. I know it works because I just did it locally.

Question: It worked locally but want to check that I having my actual executable in github and executing i, rather than building online, is feasible. Bluntly, I've not been using catkin to build my C++ code and would rather not spend the time retrofitting into the catkin system.

Or at least let us save an image after we have the thing built. That would save about 10 minutes of setup everytime you access cloudsim. Also, it means we could test with a stable build.
