lewo | BTW, with nix2container, you could easily stream an image to Skopeo ;)
nix run github:nlewo/nix2container#examples.bash.copyTo SKOPEO-DEST-TRANSPORT

asymmetric | ./result | gzip --fast | skopeo inspect docker-archive:/dev/stdin | 16:47:09 |
asymmetric | this seems to work | 16:47:17 |
asymmetric | you could do $(nix build .#foo) | ... | 16:47:30 |
asymmetric | unless you're using fish 😠| 16:47:44 |
asymmetric | In reply to @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk you could do $(nix build .#foo) | ... no this does not work | 16:48:38 |
asymmetric | nix build --no-link --json .#container | $(jq -r .[0].outputs.out) | gzip --fast | skopeo inspect docker-archive:/dev/stdin | 16:49:16 |
asymmetric | ^ this does | 16:49:20 |

colemickens | (random drive by account but I did use virtiofsd to share a dir into qemu and it worked, not sure if virtiofsd+kata is a harder scenario for some reason) | 23:18:22 |

Mic92 (Old) | Does docker also support zstd compression instead of gzip? That should make nix2container even faster | 06:06:37 |
lewo | Mic92: yep, it does! | 08:00:35 |

lewo | Mic92: Regarding the CI, do you know if it would be possible to run Docker container from a github action? | 08:31:58 |
Mic92 (Old) | In reply to @lewo:matrix.org Mic92: Regarding the CI, do you know if it would be possible to run Docker container from a github action? Yes. this is a feature. | 08:32:16 |
Mic92 (Old) | I don't have a concrete example to point you to, but I have seen this | 08:32:34 |
lewo | I meant, building all example and running them from a Github action. | 08:32:46 |
lewo | * I meant, building all examples and running them from a Github action. | 08:32:52 |
Mic92 (Old) | I think there was a docker daemon running as well? | 08:33:10 |
lewo | I don't have any idea since i rarely use github actions | 08:33:43 |
Mic92 (Old) | You can also push containers to github's registry and than pull them in the next step | 08:33:46 |
Mic92 (Old) | zimbatm: might know this. | 08:34:02 |
lewo | Mic92: yep, that would actually be possible | 08:34:09 |
Mic92 (Old) | But maybe do some research. I think there are tons of example easily available. | 08:34:32 |
Mic92 (Old) | It's a quite common use case | 08:34:42 |
Mic92 (Old) | I recently also added podman as an unprivileged services in one ci system. | 08:36:10 |
Mic92 (Old) | I needed it for docker-compose | 08:36:17 |
Mic92 (Old) | There are also nix-shell envs available for this | 08:36:27 |
Mic92 (Old) | This would be nice for local testing as well | 08:36:34 |
