alpine-x86_64

This repository contains a dockerfile to create a most trustworthy base image for further containers. The distribution Alpine Linux is used inside.

Note that alpine linux uses the musl libc, which is faster and far smaller than the typically used glibc, but also far less supported by vendors shipping closed source programms as pre compiled binaries.

Usage

To build this container as a base for other images get sure wget, gnupg and podman/libpod are installed and set up. Then run the setup script

./prepare-and-build.sh

which will generate a container named alpine-${ARCH}:${VERSION}, e.g. alpine-x86_64 (with default parameters). Note that you can overwrite the params directly when calling the script, e.g. as

ARCH="x86" prepare-and-build.sh

for a 32bit installation.
