# Gentoo Docker Images

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/gentoo/gentoo-docker-images.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/gentoo/gentoo-docker-images)

A collection of Dockerfiles for generating Gentoo docker images.

These images are intended to be created automatically by
a travis cron job and pushed to [docker hub](https://hub.docker.com/u/gentoo/).
This repository include basic stage3 images and an image usable as a `/usr/portage` volume

# DockerHub

https://hub.docker.com/u/gentoo/

## Inventory

* portage
* stage3
  * stage3-amd64
    * stage3-amd64-hardened
    * stage3-amd64-nomultilib
    * stage3-amd64-hardened-nomultilib
  * stage3-x86
    * stage3-x86-hardened

# Building the containers

The containers are created using a multi-stage build, which requires docker-17.05.0 or later.
The container being built is defined by the TARGET environment variable:

`` TARGET=stage3-amd64 ./build.sh ``

# Using the portage container as a data volume

```
docker create -v /usr/portage --name myportagesnapshot gentoo/portage:latest /bin/true
docker run --volumes-from myportagesnapshot gentoo/stage3-amd64:latest /bin/bash
```

# Using the portage container in a multi-stage build

docker-17.05.0 or later supports multi-stage builds, allowing the portage volume to be used when creating images based on a stage3 image.

Example _Dockerfile_

```
# name the portage image
FROM gentoo/portage:latest as portage

# image is based on stage3-amd64
FROM gentoo/stage3-amd64:latest

# copy the entire portage volume in
COPY --from=portage /var/db/repos/gentoo /var/db/repos/gentoo

# continue with image build ...
RUN emerge -qv www-servers/apache # or whichever packages you need
```
