--------------------------------------
Summary: Add ability to build docker images for a different Linux
distribution
Key: IMPALA-10264
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10264
Project: IMPALA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Infrastructure
Affects Versions: Impala 4.0
Reporter: Joe McDonnell
Currently, the build for Impala's docker images builds on the local host OS and
then makes the binaries available in the docker build context. The docker image
thus needs to run the same Linux distribution and version as the host. Ubuntu
16 docker images should be built on an Ubuntu 16 host. Centos 7 docker images
should be built on a Centos 7 host.
It would be useful to be able to build docker containers for a different Linux
distribution. Developers often develop on Ubuntu 16, but it would be useful to
be able to build Centos 7 docker images to use in other contexts.
To do this, we could build the binaries inside a docker container of a matching
version as the docker image we want to produce. This would construct the docker
build context, and the binaries would always match. An Ubuntu 16 machine could
produce Centos 7 docker containers. Hypothetically, this could also use QEMU to
build ARM docker containers on an x86 host.
