docker-base

This Debian Base Image is used for all of Invoca's Docker images. In order to keep things DRY, we start here with a series of packages that we assert will be in all subsequent images.

Usage

Using the base image as a starting point is simple

FROM invocaops/base:master
# rest of your Docker file
# here...

Versioning

We tag every successful build with its SHA. Additionally, if the build is on the master branch it'll be tagged latest.

• invocaops/base:SHA: Specific build
• invocaops/base:latest: Stable changes that have been merged to master after development
• invocaops/base:master: This is essentially our latest. Except latest is bad.

Testing

Our spec/ describes our minimum requirements of a Docker image. If an upstream image passes these tests it is acceptable for use in production. Otherwise we'll build our own!

The test wrapper can be used to (by default) integration test our base image or, an optional image name can be provided to test other upstream images.
