This repo contains a version of the Ximera server.

Building a ximeraserver docker image

The Dockerfile adds the current folder to a baseserver image that is very old, and seems hard to rebuild/update.

Build of baseserver image

Following hack got a base server, on which the ximeraServer code con be deployed. Hopefully, at some point the baseserver will be properly (re-)build, or obsoleted alltogether.

The baseserver image was extracted from a KULeuven ximeraserver by a combination of

• docker export -o image.tar ximeraserver # extract full filesystem from
• tar -xvf image.tar # extract the tar-file in an empty folder
• remove some big files in usr/local/bin etc
• move node_modules into usr/var/server.base
• tar -cvf ../image.1.2.tar .
• docker import image.1.2.tar baseserver:v1.2
• docker run -it baseserver:v1.2 /bin/bash
• docker cp sources.list container/etc/apt/sources/list
• (inside container) apt install vim strace
• docker commit container baseserver:v1.3

The archive-sources for the baseserver:
