[Koha-devel] My dockerizing journey: sign off requests (please?)

[Mark Tompsett]

Greetings,

Thanks to everyone that pointed me at various things. It’s helped point me in a workable direction, I believe.

However, what would be even more useful are getting sign offs for some bugs:
Bug 14533<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14533> - koha-create --use-db option shouldn't create any db or db user
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14533
Bug 18564<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18564> - koha-common.cnf parsing is too restrictive
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18564
Bug 9409<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9409> - koha-create --request-db should be able to accept a dbhost option
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9409

These three bugs would let me set environment variables to build a temporary password file to then setup access to a pre-existing remote database.

Granted, there might still be problems:
Bug 16690<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16690> - Installing DB on remote server fails without *.* permissions
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16690

Which tangentially touches on:
Bug 17237<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17237> - Stop koha-create from creating MySQL users without host restriction
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17237
Though, there is nothing to sign off yet for this one.

I’d prefer to not custom roll a distribution, but rather seek community assistance in pushing these bugs through. However due to time constraints, I probably will roll one, even if it is probably not the best way to roll one (https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Building_Debian_Packages_-_The_Easy_Way).

GPML,
Mark Tompsett
