Docker proxy config not working for ADD in Dockerfile - docker

I try to write a Dockerfile that adds a file to the image like this:
ADD https://repository.internal/file.zip /tmp/
The repository.internal host is only reachable through a proxy. I provide the proxy configuraton with the --config option but the ADD command seems not to use the proxy and fails.
I know the proxy configuration is correct because I added the line
RUN curl https://repository.internal/file.zip
which is working fine.
Is there any possibility to run the ADD command also with the proxy config?

As per my comments above, I believe this to be something to do with the internal way the Docker build process handles the ADD and RUN commands... I cant find documentation to back this up - so someone with greater internal knowledge may confirm or deny, but makes sense as a RUN command is done in a layer TO the image being built, where as the ADD command is performed and the results of it are baked into the image.
Whichever way this is being handled, you can achieve what you need by moving to the RUN method as follows:
FROM <your base image>
RUN curl https://repository.internal/file.zip >> /tmp/file.zip \
&& cd /tmp \
&& unzip file.zip \
&& rm file.zip
And you will have the files unzipped.
You may need to check if the rm at the end is required - cant remember off the top of my head if the unzip command removes the original zip file.
As you mentioned, this would rely on the curl and unzip packages being available on the image... however you could potentially avoid having these within your final application image by using Docker Multi Stage Builds
Your Dockerfile would then look something like:
FROM <some useful base image> as collector
RUN apt-get install -y curl unzip
RUN mkdir /tmp/files && \
&& curl https://repository.internal/file.zip >> /tmp/files/file.zip \
&& cd /tmp/files \
&& unzip file.zip \
&& rm file.zip
FROM <your final desired base image>
COPY --from=collector /tmp/files /tmp
This would then utilise an image to have curl and unzip in to collect and deal with the extraction of your files without having to install them on your final application image.

How can I prevent docker compile a library every time I deploy to bitbucket? Is there any bitbucket pipeline cache?

We have our Flask API in a docker image, we push this docker to a bitbucket repository, then a bitbucket pipeline start deploying.
Everything works as expected, but the compilation of OpenCV is taking in average 15 min.
I would like to know if is there any way to avoid this compilation every time we push to bitbucket. Something like caching.
I have read about cache on bitbucket pipelines but it did not work as I expected.
This is part of my Dockerfile I would like to improve:
RUN mkdir /opt && cd /opt && \
wget -q https://github.com/opencv/opencv/archive/${OPENCV_VERSION}.zip && \
unzip ${OPENCV_VERSION}.zip && \
rm -rf ${OPENCV_VERSION}.zip && \
mkdir -p /opt/opencv-${OPENCV_VERSION}/build && \
cd /opt/opencv-${OPENCV_VERSION}/build && \

rm -rf /opt/opencv-${OPENCV_VERSION}
I expect some solution like just pointing a pre-compiled version of the OpenCV Api.
I have recently faced this problem and agree that cache doesn't seem to work as expected. However without looking at your entire Dockerfile, it's hard to say. ADD's and COPY's will invalidate the cache so i'd suggest you move this section up to the top if you can before adding any files.
A better solution (if there is no pre-compiled version), is to use the concept of a base image which is what I have done to cut my build time down in half. Basically you build a base image flask-api-base which will install all your packages and compile OpenCV and then your actual final image will pull FROM flask-api-base:latest and build your application specific code. Just remember if the base image changes, you may need to wipe your Bitbucket cache.
I'm unfamiliar with OpenCV but assume that, if there is a binary that you can use, that would be the ideal option.
I'm curious as to why this layer (RUN ...) isn't being cached between builds. It appears that you're cleanly separating the make of OpenCV from other statements in your Dockerfile and so, this RUN should generate a distinct layer that's stable and thus reused across builds.
Does this statement occur after earlier e.g. RUN statements that do change? If so, you may want to reorder this statement and place it earlier in the Dockerfile so that this layer becomes constant. See best practices for the Dockerfile statements that generate layers.
Alternatively, you could make a separate image containing OpenCV and then FROM this image in your code builds. You may do this either using distinct Dockerfiles or multi-stage builds. This way, this image containing the OpenCV build would only be built on (your) demand and reused across subsequent builds.
The solution I used was to create my own image, upload it to Docker hub, and create a new one based on that.
So the first docker image should contain all the basic libraries my system uses.
The second has the environmental variables and the api itself.

configured a downloaded package with ./configure, how to remove it completely from centos

did following in setup.sh and creating a docker image
wget -qO-
https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/libpng/zlib/1.2.8/zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz | tar zvx
rm zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz
cd zlib-1.2.8
./configure
make
make install
at the end of docker file want to remove all binaries of this package to reduce the size of docker, How to do that
You probably want to run make uninstall after you have done what you want with this library + remove zlib-1.2.8 folder. Your Dockerfile should look like :
FROM centos:7
RUN ./setup.sh \
&& ./do_stuff_with_zlib.sh \
&& ./uninstall_zlib.sh
The uninstall_zlib.sh script should contain :
#!/usr/bin/env sh
(cd zlib-1.2.8; make uninstall) # uninstall binaries
rm zlib-1.2.8 # also remove folder to gain some space
Note that ./setup.sh and ./uninstall_zlib.sh should be run in the same layer (same RUN directive), otherwise resulting image size will not be reduced (unless you squash it afterwards).

How to access root folder inside a Docker container

I am new to docker, and am attempting to build an image that involves performing an npm install. Some of our the dependencies are coming from private repos we have, and I am hitting an SSH related issue:
I realised I was not supplying any form of SSH details to my file, and came across various posts online about how to do this using args into the docker build command.
So taken from here, I have added the following to my dockerfile before the npm install command gets run:
ARG ssh_prv_key
ARG ssh_pub_key
RUN apt-get update && \
apt-get install -y \
git \
openssh-server \
libmysqlclient-dev
# Authorize SSH Host
RUN mkdir -p /root/.ssh && \
chmod 0700 /root/.ssh && \
ssh-keyscan github.com > /root/.ssh/known_hosts
# Add the keys and set permissions
RUN echo "$ssh_prv_key" > /root/.ssh/id_rsa && \
echo "$ssh_pub_key" > /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub && \
chmod 600 /root/.ssh/id_rsa && \
chmod 600 /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
So running the docker build command again with the correct args supplied, I do see further activity in the console that suggests my SSH key is being utilised:
But as you can see I am getting no hostkey alg messages and
I still getting the same 'Host key verification failed' error. I was wondering if I could view the log file it references in the error:
Do I need to get the image running in order to be able to connect to it and browse the 'root' folder?
I hope I have made sense, please be gentle I am a docker noob!
Thanks
The lines that start with —-> in the docker build output are valid Docker image IDs. You can pick any of these and docker run them:
docker run --rm -it 59c45dac474a sh
If a step is actually failing, one useful debugging trick is to launch the image built in the step before it and run the command by hand.
Remember that anyone who has your image can do this; the way you’ve built it, if you ever push your image to any repository, your ssh private key is there for the taking, and you should probably consider it compromised. That’s doubly true since it will also be there in plain text in docker history output.

Using ccache in automated builds on Docker cloud

I am using automated builds on Docker cloud to compile a C++ app and provide it in an image.
Compilation is quite long (range 2-3 hours) and commits on github are frequent (~10 to 30 per day).
Is there a way to keep the building cache (using ccache) somehow?
As far as I understand it, docker caching is useless since the compilation layer producing the ccache will not be used due to the source code changes.
Or can we tweak to bring some data back to first layer?
Any other solution? Pushing it somewhere?
Here is the Dockerfile:
# CACHE_TAG is provided by Docker cloud
# see https://docs.docker.com/docker-cloud/builds/advanced/
# using ARG in FROM requires min v17.05.0-ce
ARG CACHE_TAG=latest
FROM qgis/qgis3-build-deps:${CACHE_TAG}

You should try saving and restoring your cache data from a third party service:
- an online object storage like Amazon S3
- a simple FTP server
- an Internet available machine with ssh to make a scp
I'm assuming that your cache data is stored inside the ´~/.ccache´ directory
Using Docker multistage build
From some time, Docker supports Multi-stage builds and you can try using it to implement the solution with a single Dockerfile:
Warning: I've not tested it

# STAGE 2
FROM alpine:latest
# YOUR CUSTOM LOGIC TO CREATE THE FINAL IMAGE WITH ONLY REQUIRED BINARIES
# USE THE FROM IMAGE YOU NEED, this is only an example
# E.g.:
# COPY --from=builder /usr/src/QGIS/build/YOUR_EXECUTABLE /usr/bin
# ...
In the stage 2 you will build the final image that will be pushed to your repository.
 Using Docker cloud hooks
Another, but less clear, approach could be using a Docker Cloud pre_build hook file to download cache data:
#!/bin/bash
echo "=> Downloading build cache data"
curl -o ccache.tar.bz2 http://my-object-storage/ccache.tar.bz2 # e.g. Amazon S3 like service
cd /
tar -xjvf ccache.tar.bz2
Obviously you can use dedicate docker images to run curl or tar mounting the local directory as a volume in this script.
Then, copy the .ccache extracted folder inside your container during the build, using a COPY command before your cmake call:
WORKDIR /usr/src/QGIS/build
COPY /.ccache ~/.ccache
RUN cmake ...
In order to make this you should find a way to upload your cache data after the build and you could make this easily using a post_build hook file:
#!/bin/bash
echo "=> Uploading build cache data"
tar -cvjSf ccache.tar.bz2 ~/.ccache
curl -T ccache.tar.bz2 -X PUT http://my-object-storage/ccache.tar.bz2
But your compilation data aren't available from the outside, because they live inside the container. So you should upload the cache after the cmake command inside your main Dockerfile:
RUN cmake...
&& tar ...
&& curl ...
&& ninja ...
&& rm ...
If curl or tar aren't available, just add them to your container using the package manager (qgis/qgis3-build-deps is based on Ubuntu 16.04, so they should be available).

How to add a file to an image in Dockerfile without using the ADD or COPY directive

I need the contents of a large *.zip file (5 gb) in my Docker container in order to compile a program. The *.zip file resides on my local machine. The strategy for this would be:
COPY program.zip /tmp/
RUN cd /tmp \
&& unzip program.zip \
&& make
After having done this I would like to remove the unzipped directory and the original *.zip file because they are not needed any more. The problem is that the COPY (and also the ADD directive) will add a layer to the image that will contain the file program.zip which is problematic as may image will be at least 5gb big. Is there a way to add a file to a container without using COPY or ADD directive? wget will not work as the mentioned *.zip file is on my local machine and curl file://localhost/home/user/program.zip -o /tmp/program.zip will not work either.
It is not straightforward but it can be done via wget or curl with a little support from python. (All three tools should usually be available on a *nix system.)
wget will not work when no url is given and
curl file://localhost/home/user/program.zip -o /tmp/
will not work from within a Dockerfile's RUN instruction. Hence, we will need a server which wget and curl can access and download program.zip from.
To do this we set up a little python server which serves our http requests. We will be using the http.server module from python for this. (You can use python or python 3. It will work with both.).
python -m http.server --bind 192.168.178.20 8000
The python server will serve all files in the directory it is started in. So you should make sure that you start your server either in the directory the file you want to download during your image build resides in or create a temporary directory which contains your program. For illustration purposes let's create the file foo.txt which we will later download via wget in our Dockerfile:
echo "foo bar" > foo.txt
When starting the http server, it is important, that we specify the IP address of our local machine on the LAN. Furthermore, we will open Port 8000. Having done this we should see the following output:
python3 -m http.server --bind 192.168.178.20 8000
Serving HTTP on 192.168.178.20 port 8000 ...
Now we build a Dockerfile to illustrate how this works. (We will assume that the file foo.txt should be downloaded into /tmp):
FROM debian:latest
RUN apt-get update -qq \
&& apt-get install -y wget
RUN cd /tmp \
&& wget http://192.168.178.20:8000/foo.txt
Now we start the build with
docker build -t test .
During the build you will see the following output on our python server:
172.17.0.21 - - [01/Nov/2014 23:32:37] "GET /foo.txt HTTP/1.1" 200 -
and the build output of our image will be:
Step 2 : RUN cd /tmp && wget http://192.168.178.20:8000/foo.txt
---> Running in 49c10e0057d5
--2014-11-01 22:56:15-- http://192.168.178.20:8000/foo.txt
Connecting to 192.168.178.20:8000... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
Length: 25872 (25K) [text/plain]

2014-11-01 22:56:15 (129 MB/s) - `foo.txt' saved [25872/25872]
---> 5228517c8641
Removing intermediate container 49c10e0057d5
Successfully built 5228517c8641
You can then check if it really worked by starting and entering a container from the image you just build:
docker run -i -t --rm test bash
You can then look in /tmp for foo.txt.
We can now add any file to our image without creating an new layer. Assuming you want to add a program of about 5 gb as mentioned in the question we could do:
FROM debian:latest
RUN apt-get update -qq \
&& apt-get install -y wget
RUN cd /tmp \
&& wget http://conventiont:8000/program.zip \
&& unzip program.zip \
&& cd program \
&& make \
&& make install \
&& cd /tmp \
&& rm -f program.zip \
&& rm -rf program
In this way we will not be left with 10 gb of cruft.
There's no way to do this. A feature request is here https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/3156.
Can you not map a local folder to the container when launched and then copy the files you need.
sudo docker run -d -P --name myContainerName -v /localpath/zip_extract:/container/path/ yourContainerID
https://docs.docker.com/userguide/dockervolumes/
I have posted a similar answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/37542913/909579
You can use docker-squash to squash newly created layers. That will essentially remove the archive from final image if you remove it in subsequent RUN instruction.
