Show HN: Depot – fast, remote Docker container builds

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on news.ycombinator.com

Our great sponsors
  • Appwrite - The Open Source Firebase alternative introduces iOS support
  • Sonar - Write Clean JavaScript Code. Always.
  • InfluxDB - Access the most powerful time series database as a service
  • airbyte

    Data integration platform for ELT pipelines from APIs, databases & files to warehouses & lakes.

    congrats on launching Kyle and Jacob (hi Kyle!)

    wondering what kinds of projects are/are not suitable for this. the only context i have is from working at open source devtool companies that provide docker builds for people to pull down. might speed up the release process slightly. i suspect my company https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/ could benefit. but is it also useful for internal usage?

  • dagger

    A programmable CI/CD engine that runs your pipelines in containers (by dagger)

    Dagger is Apache 2, no signup required: https://github.com/dagger/dagger#readme

    I struggle to think of what I would need a SaaS service to run BuildKit for me unless they're trying to take on GitHub Actions's compute side or whatever

  • Appwrite

    Appwrite - The Open Source Firebase alternative introduces iOS support . Appwrite is an open source backend server that helps you build native iOS applications much faster with realtime APIs for authentication, databases, files storage, cloud functions and much more!

  • trellis

    Write Dockerfiles and CI pipelines in TypeScript. (by charliermarsh)

    Another unusual alternative is to model your test running _as_ a Docker build. It's what I ended up doing in Trellis, which supports Depot as a runner (https://github.com/charliermarsh/trellis): running the linter check is modeled as "build the image, then add a `cargo clippy` RUN command as the last layer".

  • build-push-action

    GitHub Action to build and push Docker images with Depot (by depot)

    It should be just as as straightforward with Depot as well - we have a depot/build-push-action (https://github.com/depot/build-push-action) that accepts the same inputs as docker/build-push-action to make it easy (under the hood, both use BuildKit).

        steps:

  • buildkit

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

  • Sonar

    Write Clean JavaScript Code. Always.. Sonar helps you commit clean code every time. With over 300 unique rules to find JavaScript bugs, code smells & vulnerabilities, Sonar finds the issues while you focus on the work.
