[Suggestion] Official docker image on docker hub about docker HOT 5 OPEN

I'm down with this idea. We can use the same image for our own CI/CD.

The one we are currently using for vCurrent CI/CD can be found here

FROM circleci/node:8.11.3-browsers

RUN sudo chown -R circleci /usr/local

RUN npm i -g npm istanbul http-server codecov protractor gulp jspm && \
    webdriver-manager update

RUN sudo apt-get update && \
    sudo apt-get install -y wget

RUN wget -O ~/ChromeSetup.deb "https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb" && \
    sudo dpkg -i ~/ChromeSetup.deb; sudo apt-get -fy install && \
    rm ~/ChromeSetup.deb

Of what would you like to have different versions installed, though? The cli?

How about different versions of node, webpack and whatnot? I'm a bit worried about a potential explosion of combinations of versions here. We do need a solid, justified decision on this that makes an acceptable trade-off between flexibility and maintainability.

Please correct me if I am wrong 🙏

I couldn't agree more with what you are worried about, and think there is a misunderstanding of my statement. I did not mean to have a docker file per webpack versions or any other dependencies.

Exactly, what I meant is to have a docker image in which we have what you just have here + Aurelia-CLI, no more no less.

The only thing by my suggestion is that we could have a docker image with different tags, based on the version of aurelia-cli, for instance, aurelia/cli:1.0.1 and if later we deliver a newer version of the CLI then aurelia/cli:2.0.0. And instead of putting that docker file/image in a repository where everyone should make a copy/paste, we just deliver it on docker hub for better accessibility. (Everybody who even wants to start with docker knows to check docker hub first for an image, rather than a repository in GitHub)

I think this brings better support for dockerizing aurelia apps and does not bring that much of maintainability.

Alright, understood. What do you think about this existing docker image that we already have for CircleCI? We could add aurelia-cli to that, do some automated tagging magic to get a version per aurelia-cli version and we would essentially be done, right?

from docker.

Yes, It looks to be fine, just need the aurelia-cli and tagging; however,
may I have some time to use it with different approaches and configurations that are existed in the cli?
And as far as my knowledge allows me I'll try to come up with a PR if required.

from docker.

Absolutely! So for any viewers: we just discussed this on discord and it turns out there's a little bit more to it (mostly from an automation point of view). We agreed that @shahabganji will open a PR and take things from there.
I'm very excited about this and am looking forward to working together on this one as well: aurelia/cli#1127
Let's make a beautiful docker integration story :)
