A simple imgadm compatible image server for SmartOS.

This is a very dusty piece of code, having not been used for a long time. I also can't exactly guarantee that it's still protocol compliant - I know, for instance, that Joyent's client has fallen far behind docker's repo and I can't guarantee the same hasn't happened here.

But! If you're looking to distribute SmartOS images, you're probably in the right place :)

howto

Run the Python in a directory. You can seed the directory with the zfs.bz2 and json files created as part of the image production process.

To use it with a SmartOS client:

  • Do imgadm sources -e to get to editing the image sources
  • Append a line with your imagesource i.e. http://my-image-server.20ft.nz:someport imgapi
  • imgadm avail will now mix your images in with (eg) the Joyent ones
  • To push an image it's just imgadm publish -m <manifest> -f <file> http://my-image-server.20ft.nz:someport

Dead easy. Enjoy!
