Official Chiselled Ubuntu images support?
gdams opened this issue · comments
Is there a plan to support a distroless chiselled base image? It would be great to have one!

What do you mean by support for chiseled base imaged? A chiseled image cannot typically serve as a base image for other images since it does not have the tooling to add other software. Nor would a chiseled OS image be very useful to use as is. "Chiseling" an image is more of a process, a method for creating images, than a image in an of itself.
I guess what I'm trying to ask is would official images be able to create a distroless official image using the Ubuntu Chiselled tooling
For example, the .NET team publish a base image which they then base their runtime image from.
The current DOI build system supports Dockerfile and OCI artifacts as input. We do not currently have any plans to support alternative build mechanisms. You can peruse Docker's public roadmap if you wish to request features like this. Thanks for your interest in DOI!
