Hello folks,
I have built an experimental, interactive CLI tool (extremely Alpha)
that makes it possible to share .deb packages between containers in a
hierarchical order.
What this means is that if you are running 10 Ubuntu containers (for
example), you can just update 1 container and share the updated .deb
packages across the other 9 (reducing bandwidth usage). You can do all
this from the host.
Alternative solutions include:
- apt-cacher-ng
- apt-clone
If anybody would like to test (ideally testing package-sharing for
LXC-containers within an LXC container), please let me know.
Also, please indicate how I can share the files. It is 2 Python files
and 1 example.json file (can I just attach them to the mailing list email?).
For any questions, suggestions, etc. feel free to discuss here.
Regards,
Moe
