  • dive

    A tool for exploring each layer in a docker image

  • I have a requirement to assure that the container image we build runs in UTC only. I'd like to avoid starting it up just to check the link on /etc/localtime. I thought maybe a tool like dive that evaluates the contents of the image would do the trick. Clearly dive has that info, but it is outside it's scope to provide it. I also looked at syft and grype, but it seems they focus on packages, not files.
