The process of creating an up to date docker container requires an initial build followed by the container creation. The initial build requires setting up a golang build environment.
This can be significantly improved by using docker multi-stage builds such that the initial stage uses the official golang container as the build environment to produce the rest-server binary, followed by a second stage that builds the rest-server container for publishing/use. In this second stage the rest-server binary is taken from the first stage without any of the build environment.
Did rest-server help you today? Did it make you happy in any way?
Somewhat :)
I ended up solving this because the container locally stopped working about a week ago and I've been meaning to put some time into updating the container anyway as the upstream published container has been out of date for a while.
Otherwise I've been very happy with restic and rest-server as a backup solution. Thank you for having created this and I'm pleased/honored to have the opportunity to contribute.
