Build

The project image is layered atop a base image. The project image contains the potentially changeable content of the testing tools and the project materials. If future content updates are necessary this produces a slim docker pull operation for students.

The base docker image contains the heavyweight, unchanging tools — gcc toolchain, Ruby, and our customized Qemu. All these are built from scratch or installed by package manager during image build. To limit the download size for students, this image should be squashed.

If the base image changes, it must be rebuilt first and then the project image must be rebuilt. If only the project image changes, only it must be rebuilt.

Base Docker Image

Because of the Docker --squash option, this image must be built locally, manually tagged, and pushed to Docker Hub. Automated Docker Hub builds do not support the --squash option.

  1. Update Dockerfile and/or assets.
  2. Build locally… ./build/base/run.sh
  3. Tag locally docker image tag throwtheswitch/drsurly-course2-base throwtheswitch/drsurly-course2-base:[tag]
  4. docker push throwtheswitch/drsurly-course2-base:[tag]

Project Docker Image

  1. Update Dockerfile and/or assets. If base image has changed, be sure to update the tagged version of the base image at the top of build/release/Dockerfile before building the project image.
  2. For a local build… ./build/release/run.sh. Local builds are optional or for development work. Ultimately, this build is automated at Docker Hub for tagging and release, triggered by Github commits.

Usage

docker run -it --rm -v <local project path>:/lab throwtheswitch/drsurly-course2[:tag]
