Description : build and deliver software with containers
Building and delivering software is a complex task that can be made
easier with proper encapsulation: Containers. They are able to pack all
required dependencies (bitwise version controlled) so that you can
release code with the confidence that everything works the same way it
worked on the developers machine. Involucro makes invocation and
creation of images as painless as possible, enabling reproducible
software builds.
Involucro is a custom client for the Docker engine. It is used to manage
containers orchestrated by a workflow script, for example to build
software
from source using containerized compilers.
The software is used by some projects already, and more are ready to
pick it up. But for that to happen it needs to get visibility.
I'm going to maintain this by myself. Since I'm the original author
myself, there is no time lost in communication. Of course, I'm always
happy to receive contributions, both in packaging and in upstream code.
