    This one looks pretty well thought out: https://github.com/just-containers/s6-overlay

    There's a huge community https://www.linuxserver.io/ for people building "home server" containers that all use the s6-overlay. So they have a lot of tutorials and a very busy Discord, Reddit, etc with all levels of experience from container developers to people who don't program and are just getting into Docker.

    Learn S6-Overlay that allows to have one docker container for multiple processes... make immich docker compose not a two page 8 containers long? But just one clean container with healthcheck. Convince the devs to switch to it.

  • Alpine Linux is reducing dependencies on Busybox
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 3 Aug 2022
    Used s6-overlay[1] to start a lot daemons in a docker-image for demo purposes - postgres, tomcat, mysql, php-fpm, apache (don't ask why ;) - s6 worked really well and was reliable and stable - I enjoyed it very much. It was also possible to reliable pass SIGTERM to the daemons in the image for clean shutdown and it was easily possible to configure logging to stdout with a prefix. Modelling dependencies (waiting on database before starting app etc.pp) is possible via shell-scripts. It's super flexible but out of the box it's more like a collection of powerful tools not a complete package - but that's good. It's in the tradition of djb daemontools and is very unix - as in doesn't talk a lot and you better know how each part works but - and that's really cool - it's modular and simple and once you get a grip on it you can easily reason about it. systemd takes a completely different approach and also solves a kind of differnt problem - this is like small pieces of lego that compose well instead of one big chunk of glib/dbus/glibc only c-code.

  • Do Docker Containers go thru a Boot Process
    1 project | /r/docker | 20 Jul 2022
    Every container has some entrypoint, whether it launches a single binary, runs a "process supervisor" like s6, or does some pre-setup before running a service, like a database.
