Hi thomas, Buildbot bootstrap is based on Twisted's ".tac" files, which are expected to be started using twistd -y buildbot.tac. The "buildbot start" script is actually just a convenience wrapper around twistd. It actually just run twistd, and then watches for the logs to confirm buildbot successfully started. There is no value added beyond this log watching, so it is not strictly mandatory to start buildbot with buildbot start. You can just start it with twistd -y buildbot.tac.
As you pointed up the official docker image is starting buildbot with twistd -ny buildbot.tac If you look at the help of twistd, -y means the Twisted daemon will run a .tac file, and the -n means it wont daemonize. This is because docker is doing process watching by itself, and do not want its entrypoint to daemonize. The buildbot start command also has a --no-daemon option, which really only is 'exec'ing to twistd -ny. So for your dockerfile, you can as well us twistd -ny or buildbot start --no-daemon, this will work the same. Another Docker specific is that the buildbot.tac is different. It configured the twistd logs to output to stdout instead of outputing to twisted.log. This is because docker design expects logs to be in stdout so that you can configure any fancy cloud log forwarder independently from the application's tech.
