Development Report for May 15, 2017
Daily Meeting
A daily meeting is hosted on slack every business day at 9am PST on the channel #moby-project.
During this meeting, we are talking about the tasks needed to be done for splitting moby and docker.
Topics discussed last week
The CLI split
Work is in progress to move the "opts" package to the docker/cli repository. The package, was merged into the docker/cli repository through docker/cli#82, preserving Git history, and parts that are not used in Moby have been removed through moby/moby#33198.
Find a good and non-confusing home for the remaining monolith
Discussion on this topic is still ongoing, and possible approaches are looked into. The active discussion has moved from GitHub to https://forums.mobyproject.org/
Find a place for /pkg
Concerns were raised about moving packages to separate repositories, and it was decided to put some extra effort into breaking up / removing existing packages that likely are not good candidates to become a standalone project.
Update integration-cli tests
With the removal of the CLI from the moby repository, new pull requests will have to be tested using API tests instead
of using the CLI. Discussion took place whether or not these tests should use the API client package, or be completely
independend, and make raw HTTP calls.
A topic was created on the forum to discuss options: evolution of testing
Proposal: split & containerize hack/validate
@AkihiroSuda is proposing to split and containerize the hack/validate script and
started a topic on the forum. An initial
proposal to add validation functionality to vndr (the vendoring tool in use) was rejected upstream, so alternative
approaches were discussed.
Special Interest Groups
A "SIG" category was created on the forums to provide a home for Special Interest Groups. The first SIG, LinuxKit Security was started (thanks @riyazdf).
