I need to put my notes together but basically I’ve been enabling the OS-default /bin/init, after which I can test packer->docker+systemd->ansible playbooks pipelines that install/configure system services. CentOS publishes theirs at https://hub.docker.com/_/centos/ under “Dockerfile for systemd base image”. Right now I’m trying to see if I can walk this strategy all the way back to amazonlinux:1 and enable upstart.

https://hub.docker.com/r/solita/ubuntu-systemd/ lays out many of the same ideas I had under their heading “But Why?”:

  • You want to test a provisioning or deployment script that configures and starts systemd services.

@tamsky I have never used systemd in docker that is interesting idea. So to go a little deeper into how we are layering out images it goes like this base -> application -> code each of those have it’s own repository so I can update and play around with making underlaying dependencies changes in the system level stuff under application and then we always layer code over that . Last step we have tests which I am mostly using goss currently but that takes the code repo image and installs testing framework over it and runs them then that last step “could” give the green light in a CI/CD pipeline

tamsky avatar

which CICD pipline do you use? I always wonder how folks arrange cascading dependencies between packer configs

I use Jenkins.
