Docker Images for use in TaskCluster
This folder contains various docker images used in taskcluster as well as other misc docker images which may be useful for hacking on gecko.
Organization
Each folder describes a single docker image.
These images depend on one another, as described in the FROM
line at the top of the Dockerfile in each folder.
Each image has a version, given by its VERSION
file. This should be bumped when any changes are made that will be deployed into taskcluster.
Then, older tasks which were designed to run on an older version of the image can still be executed in taskcluster, while new tasks can use the new version.
Each image also has a REGISTRY
, defaulting to the REGISTRY
in this directory, and specifying the image registry to which the completed image should be uploaded.
Building images
Generally images can be pulled from the registry rather then build locally, but for developing new images its often helpful to hack on them locally.
To build an image, invoke build.sh
with the name of the folder (without a trailing slash):
./build.sh base
This is a tiny wrapper around building the docker images via docker build -t $REGISTRY/$FOLDER:$FOLDER_VERSION
On completion, build.sh
gives a command to upload the image to the registry, but this is not necessary until the image is ready for production usage.
Docker will successfully find the local, tagged image while you continue to hack on the image definitions.
Adding a new image
The docker image primitives are very basic building block for constructing an "image" but generally don't help much with tagging it for deployment so we have a wrapper (./build.sh) which adds some sugar to help with tagging/versioning... Each folder should look something like this:
- your_amazing_image/
- your_amazing_image/Dockerfile: Standard docker file syntax
- your_amazing_image/VERSION: The version of the docker file
(required* used during tagging)
- your_amazing_image/REGISTRY: Override default registry
(useful for secret registries)
Conventions
In some image folders you will see .env
files these can be used in
conjunction with the --env-file
flag in docker to provide a
environment with the given environment variables. These are primarily
for convenience when manually hacking on the images.
You will also see a system-setup.sh
script used to build the image.
Do not replicate this technique - prefer to include the commands and options directly in the Dockerfile.
