In short, I am encouraging someone else to maintain a master image that is not under the apache/couchdb or couchdb namespace @ Docker Hub. I already have enough plates that I'm keeping spinning right now, I'm not going to volunteer to do this as well.
Adapting this file should be trivial for whomever wants to do so: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-docker/blob/master/dev/Dockerfile You can add `-n 1` to the `dev/run` command to ensure only a single node is started up. -Joan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joan Touzet" <woh...@apache.org> To: "Dale Harvey" <d...@arandomurl.com> Cc: "CouchDB Developers" <dev@couchdb.apache.org>, u...@couchdb.apache.org Sent: Wednesday, 20 September, 2017 4:20:51 AM Subject: Re: Docker images migrated to apache/couchdb We were explicitly instructed *not* to publish a master version by ASF staff when given access to the apache/couchdb name space. I don't know what more I can say here without Infra threatening to take away the apache/couchdb namespace from us. We were also told that the "official" namespace that Docker provides (just 'couchdb' which is being updated to the new apache/couchdb location) can only use official releases from upstream, see: https://github.com/docker-library/official-images/pull/1288#issuecomment-173365497 "...while bleeding edge betas/RCs/etc that have a unique git hash reference can be supported, building from master should be done in a non-official image." -Joan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dale Harvey" <d...@arandomurl.com> To: u...@couchdb.apache.org, "Joan Touzet" <woh...@apache.org> Cc: "CouchDB Developers" <dev@couchdb.apache.org> Sent: Wednesday, 20 September, 2017 3:56:08 AM Subject: Re: Docker images migrated to apache/couchdb Having a master version available does not seem to break those policies (advertising outside the development community seems purposefully vague), and if it did then those policies should be fixed. A master version of CouchDB available for testing with PouchDB would be hugely beneficial, I imagine for other projects that want to integrate with CouchDB would benefit too On 20 September 2017 at 08:15, Joan Touzet < woh...@apache.org > wrote: Hello everyone, The Docker images that used to live at klaemo/couchdb have now been semi-officially replaced by ones at apache/couchdb. Tags are present for 1.6.1, 1.6.1-couchperuser, 2.1.0, and latest (which is the same as 2.1.0). The 2.1.0 image can be used both as a single node, and in a cluster. ASF policy prevents us from publishing a "master" version, as notated here: http://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution.html#unreleased Sorry for the delay in getting these out the door. The next step is to deprecate the klaemo/couchdb image, and to have the "official" couchdb image replaced with a pointer to the apache/couchdb image. -Joan
