Hi all,
I would like to get feedbacks on the following proposal. Use OSBS to build the fedora container base image, indeed OSBS has the capability to build a base container image using a kickstart file. To do this OSBS needs a Dockerfile, a kickstart file and an image-build.conf file stored in dist-git, then OSBS will trigger an ImageFactory task in Koji in order to build to base image and then it will build the base container based on the artifacts built in Koji.
Here a the few advantages I see in moving forward with this proposal :
- Use of a single dist-git repo for the base image, allowing use of fedora-ci. - Using OSBS will allow us to make use of bodhi updates to release new versions of the image - OSBS deals with multi-arches (we currently use a custom script in releng to build manifest list) - Does not requires releng to run a script to release the images
Before I start looking at the implementation details, I would appreciate feedbacks.
Thanks Clément

Is anyone actively maintaining ImageFactory? Because it's still Python 2 only and I haven't seen anyone really working on fixing that, much less supporting more images easily...
There has been some progress as Tomas Kopecek added py3 patches to Oz last year... https://github.com/clalancette/oz/pull/263
Not sure how much effort is needed to add py3 support to ImageFactory itself. Copying Tomas as Brendan. Neither of them maintain IF, but they have contributed to it in the past and may be able to help.

Forwarding info I got from Tomas off-line...
""" oz should be py3-ready according to clancellete (not tested by me). I've started some work on ImageFactory, but didn't get too far as there were other priorities. It seemed to be doable (waited on oz in that time), so if we want to give it some resources (very rough estimation ~1month/man to get both things running together)
About ImageFactory maintaining - I don't think there is anybody actively maintaining it, nearest shot is Brendan. Both mailing lists are dead from 2014/2015.
btw, for OSBS it should be no difference while koji builders are still python2. ImageFactory is running there and needs to be same python version as kojid (it is used as library, not separate process). """

The PRs for Koji to move to Python 3 are waiting for their review to be completed to be merged:
* https://pagure.io/koji/pull-request/1117 * https://pagure.io/koji/pull-request/921 * https://pagure.io/koji/pull-request/891
Basically, as soon as someone gives a crap about it, these can be finished up, merged, and we can have Koji switched to Python 3.

+1 to the change proposal.
Someone still need to submit updates in bodhi and rel-eng would be happy to own that task and it is much simpler than what we have today.
