  3. buildkit

    concurrent, cache-efficient, and Dockerfile-agnostic builder toolkit

    > We are uding docker-in-docker at the moment

    You can also run a "less privileged" container with all the features of Docker by using rootless buildkit in Kubernetes. Here are some examples:

    It's also possible to run dedicated buildkitd workers and connect to them remotely.

  4. jenkins-std-lib

    Bringing the Zen of Python to Jenkins.

  5. raw

    It’s possible to do the ‘uses’ trick but there’s a few extras needed admittedly (branch name and path to file)

        include: https://gitlab.com/awesome-project/raw/main/.before-script-template.yml

  6. air

    ☁️ Live reload for Go apps

    At a recent job, we had slightly different containers for local dev; our backend containers (for a Go app) had Air [1] installed for live reloading, plus Delve [2] running inside the container for VS Code's debugger to connect to. We also had a frontend container for local dev, which didn't get deployed as a container, just as static files.

  8. libaws

    just ship on aws

    cloud is so good now it’s hard to justify not doing something bespoke. ec2 spot is insanely cheaper than turnkey cicd, and better in almost every way.

    i’m delighted to pay 30% over infra cost for convenience, but not 500%. and it better actually be convenient, not just have a good landing page and sales team.

    this month i learned localzones have even better spot prices. losangeles-1 is half the spot price of us-west-2.

    for a runner, do something like this, but react to an http call instead of a s3 put[1].

    for a web ui do something like this[2].

    s3, lambda, and ec2 spot are a perfect fit for cicd and a lot more.
