  • Dive: A tool for exploring a Docker image, layer contents and more
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 8 Jan 2024
    Eventually, once zstd support gets fully supported, and tiny gzip compression windows are not a limitation, then compressing a full layer would almost certainly have a better ratio over several smaller layers

  • Pushing container images to GitHub Container Registry with GitHub Actions
    3 projects | dev.to | 1 Dec 2022
    GitHub Container Registry stores container images within your organization or personal account, and allows you to associate an image with a repository. It currently supports both the Docker Image Manifest V2, Schema 2 and Open Container Initiative (OCI) specifications.
  • The cloud-agnostic-architecture illusion
    5 projects | dev.to | 19 Aug 2022
    We build all services as containerized workloads, i.e., OCI images - sometimes called Docker images. We deploy these to the Kubernetes product offered by the cloud vendor. Whenever we need some capability, containers are the answer. This insulates our applications from the vendor. In principle, we could switch providers as long as Kubernetes is available.
  • Containerd... Do I use Docker to build the container image? I miss the Docker Shim

    Build images with anything that makes OCI compliant images, push, and profit.

    it's funny that you mention this because it is actually the thing that is next on my agenda for the image, as you can probably see already I bake in OCI image annotations in our image, which is great for including some core pieces of meta data. In addition to this though I will soon be including custom labels for Base64 encoded YAMLs for Kubernetes deployments using this image. I will look at including helm configuration as well. Then it should be just as easy as: $ docker pull registry.gitlab.com/crafty-controller/crafty-4:latest $ docker image inspect registry.gitlab.com/crafty-controller/crafty-4:latest | jq -r ".[].Config.Labels.\"org.arcadiatech.crafty.k8s.deployment\"" | base64 -d | kubectl apply -f -

    They still don't do anything really of substance, they're just gateways to their vendor's world - booking systems, payment systems, etc. You learn those as you go along. Yes, as a potential employee, you need to be able to tick those boxes on your CV, but if you understand the underlying technology, it's mostly a matter of booking your own AWS or Azure server for $5-10 a month for a few weeks, and fooling around. (Docker is a bit different in the sense that they were the first to popularize today's de-facto container image standard, the "Docker container", which has since been accepted as a proper standard and renamed to "OCI image format"; but at the end of the day, at this point in time, Docker in itself is still just a company out for the money, and the multi-GB installation of their product can, for the essential functionality part, be replaced by a few hundred lines of Bash code. The cool boys today don't use Docker, they use [Podman(https://podman.io/), which is essentially a much more lightweight drop-in replacement ;-) )
  • `COPY –chmod` reduced the size of my container image by 35%
    7 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 25 Mar 2022
    I think the OP is confusing the runtime and image format a bit here. At runtime OverlayFS can use metadata-only copy up to describe changed files, but the container image is still defined as a sequence of layers where each layer is a tar file. There's no special handling for metadata-only changes of a file from a parent layer. As the OCI image spec puts it [1]:

    > Additions and Modifications are represented the same in the changeset tar archive.

  • Criticize My Dockerfile

    You don't have any LABELs. Consider the OCI spec: https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/main/annotations.md

    Great app. I'd really like to see it developed and improved. Docker image is quite properly done: multi-stage build and user (not root) running application. Just add LABELs according to OCI Image Format Specification and maybe a HEALTHCHECK, and it will be a perfect model.
