We would like to provide a simple way to deploy and run Apache Bookkeeper with an official Docker image.

In order to create an official image, we should have a repository with all docker build files that we want to be built from docker hub and we have to obtain the DockerHub team approval. Here the 

Proposal

In order to 

We decided to not make a request to official docker images library in order to maintain implementation freedom and to not require a third party approval for every change to our dockerfiles. The choice is to create builds for Apache docker user, so we will have images named "apache/bookkeper:4.4.0" instead of "bookkeeper:4.4.0". 

Proposal

Current docker image proposal is hosted on https://github.com/caiok/bookkeeper-dockerThis image:

Below are shown 

Docker Image

The proposed image 

  • Is very similar to Zookeeper one (here the github sources)
  • Is based on Alpine Linux, a very appreciated distro for docker image (for lightweightness and security orientation)
    • (warning) Problem: Alpine uses a lightweight libc implementation that could lead to some compatibility issues with some system specific java libraries. The only problem I encountered so far is with Linux native epoll in Netty 4 (an issue for BK 4.5.0).
  • Follows nearly all dockerhub docker official image guidelines
    • Problem(warning) Problem: it currenty lacks only the key import in gpg signature verification. The best practice is:

      Code Block
      # gpg: key F73C700D: public key "Larry Hastings <larry@hastings.org>" imported
      RUN curl -fSL "https://www.python.org/ftp/python/$PYTHON_VERSION/Python-$PYTHON_VERSION.tar.xz" -o python.tar.xz \
          && curl -fSL "https://www.python.org/ftp/python/$PYTHON_VERSION/Python-$PYTHON_VERSION.tar.xz.asc" -o python.tar.xz.asc \
          && export GNUPGHOME="$(mktemp -d)" \
          && gpg --keyserver ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 97FC712E4C024BBEA48A61ED3A5CA953F73C700D \
          && gpg --batch --verify python.tar.xz.asc python.tar.xz \
          && rm -r "$GNUPGHOME" python.tar.xz.asc \
          # install

      In current docker build "gpg --keyserver" and "gpg --batch" are commented.

 

Directory Structure and Repository

  • We will include bookkeeper build files in the main repository, in a directory named "bookkeeper-docker".
  • We will We should provide a docker build file for each released version (starting from 4.4.0). Each build will be contained in a directory subdirectory named like the label we want to assign to it (i.e "4.4.0/" for image "apache/bookkeer:4.4.0").
    • The docker build file and all related files contained in these subdirectories will be used by dockerhub to create automated builds for every version.
    • (question)Question: could be useful provide a docker build "onbuild" for the last unreleased commit?
    The prop 
    • snapshot of the current development version?
  • Main directory will contain the Readme to be shown in dockerhub image page
