jarlefosen/itch repository overview

⁠ITCH

⁠The itch you don't need to scratch

Itch is a prebuilt docker image built FROM SCRATCH that contains ca-certificates from alpine and a user nobody.

Inspired by The Go 1.11 web service Dockerfile⁠

⁠How to use this
# Do your stuff, build a static binary
FROM golang:alpine as builder
WORKDIR /go/src/app
COPY . .

RUN CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -o /app main.go

# Copy binary from builder to itch
FROM jarlefosen/itch
COPY --from=builder /app /app
ENTRYPOINT ["/app"]

See the example above in action

  • examples/helloworld/ says Hello World and tells which user is running.
  • examples/httpget/ Shows how ITCH differs from SCRATCH when requesting data over HTTPS.
  • examples/timezone/ Shows how ITCH differs from SCRATCH when loading location zones.

Test each of the examples with

$ make build # builds individual scratch and itch images
$ make run   # executes SCRATCH and ITCH versions to compare behaviour
$ make clean # attempts to remove docker images

# This produces dangling Docker images. Clean all with
$ alias dcleanup='([ -z "$(docker images -q -f dangling=true)" ] && echo "No dangling images") || (echo "Removing dangling images" && docker rmi $(docker images -q -f dangling=true))'
$ dcleanup
