Topics

[edit]
  • Base images
    • 2 ways to go:
      • add nodejs and npm and build application inside container
      • Multistage idea: blubber, runs npm and creates artifacts that are copied to new container
    • proposal to keep current method, i.e. build deploy repo and use that as a form of artifact copy to new container
    • Multistage build needs several base images
      • minimum for production: one with npm one without that copies in artifacts
      • need another image to run tests/for development
    • need info about what is needed for npm install: build-essential, other stuff?
    • images will be simple since strace, etc. can be run from host not inside container
  • python base container
    • ores, servermon, eventbus? Something to think about
  • Creating a banner page for the docker registry needs to happen
    • we're all bad at design
  • meeting butts-up against a different meeting, move 5 mins later?
