Hi-
I'm distributing pre-built Node binaries for Rumprun. Initially I've made
v4.2.4 and v5.3.0 available for x86_64/hw_generic.
Nice!
The binaries are distributed using dtuf (https://github.com/davedoesdev/dtuf
),
which in turn uses The Update Framework (TUF) and a Docker registry to do
the
heavy lifting. You don't need the Docker client installed on your computer.
For the less educated here, can you expand on what that means? Does
that mean it uses some Docker tools without using the Docker
infrastructure? (or am I grasping at the completely wrong straws?)
How does it handle updates?
Any comments/opinions/feedback gratefully received!
Can you document the steps in the package README? (or the wiki, though
follow the other thread to know when packages-wiki is in action ... any
day now).
# Run it
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 160 -kernel node -append '{"cmdline":
"node"}'
So I guess you can't really configure the guest in the current state of
things, e.g. give it a network interface, at least not without using
"rumprun -D" and some other kludges.
I used the same approach of skip-rumprun-and-just-use-qemu for
rumprun-nethack, and I liked it. However, I had the advantage of
nethack always being nethack, so you don't need a flexible
configuration. I at least assume that you can do things beyond
helloworld with node ;)
I'll try to try this out in a day or two.
