# What this is
Scripts and dockerfiles to build docker images based on Gentoo, but only with
what is needed at runtime, i.e., without the build time dependencies.
I use some non-standard profiles that strip what is not needed.
# How to use it
First copy the portage trunk in repo/gentoo/ and the ceamac trunk - miniroot
branch in repo/ceamac/.
Then run src/bootstrap.sh -h and see what it says.
## Build locally (to test what goes in)
For example:
`src/bootstrap.sh -us -r repos/gentoo -r repos/ceamac output -a`
- -u to build unstable.
- -s to add support for steve.
- -r repo-name-or-path to add whatever repos you need. gentoo is added by
default, even if not specified.
- output - this can be any name, it is the name of the output directory where
the --root will be.
- optional extra arguments to emerge, added after output. For example use -a
to see what would be merged before merging.
Other useful options:
- -p profile to specify a profile (if not used, it will be asked)
- -m make.conf to specify an alternate make.conf to be copied in $ROOT
- -c yes to clear the output directory and rebuild all. Without -c, the build
will continue and reuse the last selected profile.
- -e used together with -c to simply clean all and not build anything.
After finishing, if all goes well, you should have a ready to use $ROOT in
output as well as some useful scripts in bin, like bin/output-emerge to emerge
more packages in output, bin/output-eselect to run eselect in $ROOT and
bin/output-bwrap to start a bubblewrap shell inside $ROOT and test stuff.
This bootstrap script will create only a base root (@system set, without
anything else).
To continue run scripts from src or manually emerge stuff.
For example `src/setup-gitea.sh output [-a]` to install gitea inside output.
Important note: host portage should have the same trunk as $ROOT, because
that's where BDEPENDs go. In case of mismatches things can go wrong.
## Build with docker
Edit the dockerfiles and run docker build. I did not add arguments.
Unfortunately docker build does not support steve.
For example:
Build the base image with
`docker buildx build -t gentoo-base-gnu -f Dockerfile.base.gnu .`
The build the gitea image with
`docker buildx build -t gentoo-gitea -f Dockerfile.gitea .`
It uses the base image. And the dockerfile copies the repos from repos/.
