Development

How to use this repositorie for local development.

Quick Start

    git clone https://github.com/daspanel/alpine-base-edge
    git remote rm origin
    # hack on source/Dockerfile
    make clean clean-image clean-image-dangling build

Overview

If you want to use some app with this docker project, starting putting the interesting code under src/ dir. The project and corresponding build pipeline will "just work".

Building pipeline

You can create a 'docker-compose.override.template' that adapts it properly to your development environment. The Makefile when then generate a 'docker-compose.override.yml' file from the template.

If you want to adapt it to your demo and/or production environemnts, create a file something like docker-compose..yml and use 'make build- run-'

Testing

You can test in several ways

Run a container using this image and getting an interactive shell:
```
docker-compose run alpine-base-edge /bin/sh
```
All content inside the src dir will be avaiable on the /app dir of the container and you can work
Execute scripts inside a running container:
1. Put some script that do tests when the container run unde src/
2. Excute the script:
```
docker-compose exec alpine-base-edge /app/yourscript
```
This only work when your docker image is not stopped, i.e., when the image have a long running processes like a MySql server. See docker-compose docs and the exec command for more info.

Customization

Modify 'docker-compose.yml' to launch your project correctly.

Add make rules, recipes and dependencies to 'recipes.mk' to add extra build steps or dependencies. Modify Makefile as a last resort (and let me know what you had to modify so I can look into supporting that customization).

Use environment specific overrides to run in different environments.
