Dagger: a new way to build CI/CD pipelines
I'm not touching anything Docker anymore.
Here's the scenario: you're the unfortunate soul who received the first M1 as a new employee, and nothing Docker-related works. Cue multi-arch builds; what a rotten mess. I spent more than a week figuring out the careful orchestration that any build involving `docker manifest` needs. If you aren't within the very fine line that buildx assumes, good luck pal. How long has `docker manifest` been "experimental?" It's abandonware.
Then I decided it would be smart to point out that we don't sign our images, and so I had to figure out how to combine the `docker manifest` mess with `docker trust`, another piece of abandonware. Eventually I figured out that the way to do it was with notary[1], another (poorly documented) piece of abandonware. The new shiny thing is notation[2], which does exactly the same thing, but is nowhere near complete.
At least Google clearly signals that they are killing something, Docker just lets projects go quiet.
How long before this project lands up like the rest of them? Coincidentally, we were talking about decoupling our CI from proprietary CI, seeing this was a rollercoaster of emotions.
