[Koha-devel] Official Docker image

[David Cook]

Hi Tomas,

 

I’ve decided to try Docker for Windows, and to try out your koha-testing-docker using that.

 

I cloned the git repository from https://gitlab.com/koha-community/koha-testing-docker and I’m reading the README.md, but I stumble at “docker-compose build”. (Initially I didn’t read the README.md and just tried ‘docker build’ and that looked OK at a glance.) 

 

I see “Requirement: The SYNC_REPO variable needs to be defined and contain the full path for a Koha's git repository clone”, but the error messages I get are:

 

WARNING: The SYNC_REPO variable is not set. Defaulting to a blank string.

WARNING: The COVERAGE variable is not set. Defaulting to a blank string.

WARNING: The RUN_TESTS_AND_EXIT variable is not set. Defaulting to a blank string.

WARNING: The LOCAL_USER_ID variable is not set. Defaulting to a blank string.

db uses an image, skipping

es uses an image, skipping

memcached uses an image, skipping

selenium uses an image, skipping

koha uses an image, skipping

 

Is SYNC_REPO supposed to be a path to a http://git.koha-community.org/koha.git directory? 

 

I’ll have to try that after lunch…

Subject: [Koha-devel] Official Docker image

 

Hi everyone, on the CI front, I have recently introduced (successfully) the broad use of Docker images to run the full test suite. This project, named koha-testing-docker [1], evolved into a usable development environment too. Right now I'm trying to spend some time on porting kohadevbox things into it.

 

This Docker image is built and published automatically by our Jenkins server, and then used in the three nodes we have to run the tests.

 

We also have a Docker image for building koha-* packages wherever we need to (yes, we want to automate this, and properly test the generated packages using the CI infrastructure). [2]

 

With this knowledge, and the infrastructure part of it solved, I would like to start publishing an official Docker image of Koha. Once we have this, the koha-testing-docker tools would be rebuilt on top of it.

 

I raise the subject in light of recent discussions about supported OSs, Perl versions and dependencies.
