Building an Image#

Creating a Dockerfile#

FROM fedora:27
LABEL maintainer="Dogtag PKI Team <pki-devel@redhat.com>"
ENV container=docker LANG=en_US.utf8 LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8 LC_ALL=en_US.utf8

Building an image locally#

To build an image from a Dockerfile:

$ docker build -t <image> <folder that contains Dockerfile>

Pushing an image to DockerHub#

$ docker login --username=<username>
$ docker tag <image> <repo>/<username>/<image>:<tag>
$ docker push <repo><username>/<image>:<tag>

Building an image on DockerHub#

Link DockerHub to GitHub: https://hub.docker.com/account/authorized-services/
Create automated build: https://hub.docker.com/add/automated-build/USER/
Select pki-ci repository on GitHub.
Configure the builds: https://hub.docker.com/r/USER/pki-ci/~/settings/automated-builds/
- Type: Branch
- Name: master
- Dockerfile location: /docker/f27
- Docker Tag Name: latest
Check build status: https://hub.docker.com/r/USER/pki-ci/builds/

VPN Issue#

If /etc/resolv.conf is configured to use 127.0.0.1 (e.g. due to VPN), Docker build may not work.

nameserver 127.0.0.1

To fix the problem, find the actual DNS server:

$ nmcli dev show | grep IP4.DNS
IP4.DNS[1]:                             <DNS server>

Then edit /etc/sysconfig/docker-network and specify the following:

DOCKER_NETWORK_OPTIONS="--dns <DNS server>"

Then restart Docker:

$ systemctl restart docker
