# docker systemctl images

This project will use the docker-systemctl-replacement script

to build realistic images of common software into a systemd

controlled distribution.

See https://github.com/gdraheim/docker-systemctl-replacement

## History

Using a ansible and a dockerfile to build images of common

software did even exist before the testsuite.py of the

original docker-systemctl-replacement project was created.

Just a couple of Makefile lines were used start and stop

the necessary containers and images.

In version 1.0 of docker-systemctl-replacement these parts

were integrated into the testsuite.py where they were now

named test_6xxx (later test_7xxx) for the dockerfile based

tests and test_9xxxx for the ansible based test scenarios.

When moving to version 1.3 of docker-systemctl-replacement

these parts were cut out into a separate project on github

named docker-systemctl-images.

In the docker-systemctl-replacement project the resulting

images were just temporary while docker-systemctl-images

will keep the results. These may be used directly for

further usage in other projects. The tests on the images

are still performed and in general they run before the

output image is tagged on its 'savename'. As such the

script is not called testbuilds.py

## Overview

The main targets are webservers and databases as being

the basis of other projects. The big free distros like 

centos and ubuntu are generally the most common target

here.

The original author of docker-systemctl-replacement is

commonly using the systemctl.py script along with

ansible as the software deployments but allow to 

provision on a real machine or a docker container. The

first example here is a Jenkins setup.

## The author

Guido Draheim is working as a freelance consultant for

multiple big companies in Germany. This project is related 

to the current surge of DevOps topics which often use docker 

as a lightweight replacement for cloud containers or even 

virtual machines. It makes it easier to test deployments

in the standard build pipelines of development teams.
