buildx VS arkitect

This is great! I’ve been waiting a long time for this and it seems like more debug features are in the pipeline too: https://github.com/docker/buildx/issues/1104

Docs: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/buildx_...

Container engine: Docker v23.0.4 | Buildx v0.10.4

ARCH=amd64 # change to 'arm64' for M1 VERSION=v0.10.4 curl -LO https://github.com/docker/buildx/releases/download/${VERSION}/buildx-${VERSION}.darwin-${ARCH} mkdir -p ~/.docker/cli-plugins mv buildx-${VERSION}.darwin-${ARCH} ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-buildx chmod +x ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-buildx docker buildx version # verify installation

wget -O /tmp/docker/cli-plugins/docker-buildx https://github.com/docker/buildx/releases/tag/v0.10.4/buildx-v0.10.4.linux-amd64

Your particular one looks somewhat like https://github.com/docker/buildx/issues/1595.

Now, we have examples of the actual definitions for a single application’s docker container. Notice that we set the contexts key here which references the dependency targets we just defined. You can basically think of this like the depends_on block if you’ve used Terraform before. The args key let’s us populate the ARG variables in the Dockerfile. This is what is ultimately different between each of the containers. In the future, the buildx team might support using for_each loops like in Terraform but for now each block will have a bit of duplication.

Now as bonus we i will add how to use this techniques to build a multi arch build container. Maybe you have the same application but you need to run it in arm or riscv architecture. For this we can use the buildx plugin from docker https://github.com/docker/buildx.

Third step is docker/setup-buildx-action configures buildx, which is a Docker CLI plugin that provides enhanced build capabilities.

PHPArkitect

PHPArkitect: Put your architectural rules under test!

I don't like the yaml config so we use https://github.com/phparkitect/arkitect

wget [https://github.com/phparkitect/arkitect/releases/latest/download/phparkitect.phar](https://github.com/phparkitect/arkitect/releases/latest/download/phparkitect.phar) chmod +x phparkitect.phar ./phparkitect.phar check

So for this reason, in one open-source project Arkitect where I’m contributing nowadays, we have a Dockerfile that needs to be published every time there is a push on master, or a new release comes out.
