⁠DiffOS Container Images

The DiffOS Container Images⁠ project build and publish DiffOS Container Images, for orchestration of containers using tools like docker or podman.

You may launch them locally like this:

⁠Docker Hub

The images may be downloaded from jas4711/diffos at Docker Hub⁠. The following tags are supported.

⁠Design

The general idea is to take one of the official Debian upstream container image⁠, such as debian:bookworm or debian:trixie-slim, and upgrade it into a DiffOS system, and store a copy of the upgraded container into our container registry.

See the script prepare.sh⁠ for the method, invoked from .gitlab-ci.yml⁠. The deploy stage automatically publish to Docker Hub including an updated README.

The containers are derived using Buildah⁠ from a Containerfile⁠. The file instruct Buildah to copy setup.sh⁠ into the container, and from within the container, execute it to finish image preparations.
