The previous hledger-suite image was treated as a monolithic development
image that was never intended to be pulled from directly, at least
outside of the `dfi` build system.
hledger-suite has now been parsed out into separate build targets for
faster maintenance and development, with the final production image
being a massively slimmer "placeholder" image for the built binaries.
`hledger-suite:latest` can now be pulled from directly without pulling
the entire build system and related artifacts.
- Prevents system upgrades from using Arch's `root` package
* Currently, their package does not build with C++20 support
- Updates remote image package artifact location
* Remote image's build artifact moved from /home/builder to /root
- Uses wildcard for local `root` package version
* Reduces maintenance since any remote bump should rebuild this module
- This is possible now that `dfi`'s ROOT build supports C++20
- No internal `dfi` API or impl changes are necessary
* This includes any Botan signatures
`xsv` is no longer maintained and the author recommends `xan` instead.
Fortunately, `xan` is very suitable for our use-case; is very efficient,
and produces no differences in our expected output.
Also update build process for a successful build and better caching.
Despite recent releases, hledger-iadd's stack configuration is not
regularly maintained (very out of date). The install documentation is
also very out of date. The maintainer appears to be using cabal for
building.
As discussed in #216, hledger-flow breaks with the latest hledger
release (1.50).
Until hledger-flow has another release, current master tip appears to be
as stable as v0.15.0 and includes fixes that work with hledger 1.50.
This commit brings a complete overhaul of the build system:
- Creates a separation of concerns for 'local' and 'remote' building
* 'local' is built locally via the docker-finance `build` command
* 'remote' is built *outside* of the docker-finance `build` command
(pushed to a remote registry and then pulled by the 'local' build)
* Related refactoring
- Dockerfiles
- `lib_gen`
- Adds remote image 'hledger-suite'
* Provides the latest versions of all `hledger` related binaries
* No longer relies on package maintainers / out-dated packages
- Adds remote image 'docker-finance'
* Provides base image for 'finance' and 'dev-tools' images
- tags 'archlinux' | 'ubuntu' | 'dev-tools'
- Removes previous `hledger` related build modules
* Removes building any `hledger` related binaries locally
- Removes 'experimental' build
* End-user can use local custom Dockerfile and/or custom tag instead
- Updates the 'default' | 'slim' | 'tiny' | 'micro' build types
* Refactors build type requirements into separate build modules
- Adds 'fetch' module
- Adds 'track' module
- Adds 'user' module
* creates container user *after* base and all other modules
* allows for quick re-building across multiple local users
- Updates 'root' module
* `lib_docker`
- Updates usage help
- Adds build modules per build type
- Huge optimizations
* Vastly improves build times
- ~60% faster w/ a fresh build
- ~60%-90% faster rebuild (depending on image type)
* Vastly improves image sizes
- e.g., 'default' Arch Linux image size is ~50% smaller
Adding the finance user as late as possible within the base Dockerfile
will allow for faster build times when rebuilding with different users
(the base layers won't need to be rebuilt).
- Dockerfiles: separation of concerns for build types
- Dockerfiles: pull from respective hledger-based branches/tags
- Dockerfiles: move hledger-based test building into experimental
- docker-finance.yaml: add commented package 'unuran' (experimental)
