The low level topic references information from the base
topic. In this case the name of the previously built image.
I think we should provide information on each low level
topic which references information from a base topic.
* Separate the high-level (building) from the low-level part (dumping)
* Introduce a subsection ("Working with Images"); not sure, if this is
useful under "Building Images"
* Enhance with some (general) advise about booting from USB
* Add abstract (use `.. sidebar`, not sure if we should use it)
* Collect all concept oriented text in the beginning
* Introduce procedure and create steps
* Remove lonely subsection and combine it with the procedure
TODO:
* Review
* Decide, if `.. sidebar` is ok (or should we better use `.. topic`?)
* Add additional, related information?
The current design of the documentation does not allow for
continous improvement and development. It's missing a basic
structure and concept for documenting step-by-step workflows
and generic explanations.
This commit makes sure the filesystem is parsed from the
UNIONFS_CONFIG configuration variable when the PXE image is
loaded to a block device.
This commit fixes#316
The following reference to a derived container:
obsrepositories:/container#latest
Will be translated into the following buildservice
local path:
/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/containers/_obsrepositories/container#latest
The following reference to a derived container:
obs:/project/repo/container#tag
Will be translated into the following buildservice
local path:
/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/containers/project/repo/container#tag
The source location postfix can contain several different
formats e.g :/, or :// or even just :, python's urlparse
is able to cope with all that which allows to work with
the url scheme base name and thus makes handling this
code more robust
This commit includes #310 patch for OCI images.
It also corrects the end of line format for kiwi/container/docker.py
and test/unit/container_image_docker_test.py, so flake tests are all
green.
This commit adds the possibility of clearing asny subcommand or
entrypoint. This is relevant for docker derived images, as they
inherit the configuration and it might lead to some bad behavior.
This commit includes the --delete flag in order to synchronize the
docker images. This is relevant for derived images where the new
layer might not only add files, but also remove something from the
base image.
Fixes#309
This commit adds support for OCI images. Most of the docker related
code is reused for OCI classes and Docker classes have been refactored
so now they are a splecialization of the OCI classes. It is done this
way since KIWI internally only uses OCI format to operate with
containers, therefore docker images just differ from OCI images by
the way they are packaged or unpackaged.
There are no good reasons to be purging the repo directories, especially
when it is common for some distributions (Red Hat/CentOS/Fedora, for example)
to ship repository configuration as packages. Deleting them puts the package
manager in the system into a weird state, so we want to avoid this.
In order to ensure that the defined repositories in the KIWI configuration
are set to the correct places for installing into the image, the
sources-dir and preferences-dir need to be redefined to point to the
in-image location, as it is done for the other package managers.
Add support to enable/disable installation of recommended packages
for dnf package manager. With this commit 'plusRecommended'
patternType triggers on installation of recommended packages, which
is turned off by default.
