It might also increase usage of the AutoBuilder if it was easier to setup/try. This container would be a blend of the poky-container [1,2] and the buildbot-master [3,4] container. Although it might be possible to be even simpler and not need the poky-container bits... Although it would be tempting to run Docker-in-Docker, this is ill advised [5] and instead the docker socket should be bind mounted: 'docker run -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock ...' Similarly, the persistent build directories should be bind mounted docker volumes (local driver). Specific to AB, we would need to point to yocto-autobuilder2 and yocto-autobuilder-helper git repos or local copies (with local configurations).

I think we will also need containers for the janitor, and also a hash equivalency server, correct? The latter should be pretty simple. 92952 3 tim.orling 2022-04-07 16:48:03 +0000 Nice idea, but not something I have time to work on. 96913 4 randy.macleod 2023-10-24 14:24:42 +0000 Bulk move from 4.99 or 0.00 to 5.99 106016 5 tim.orling 2026-06-25 15:21:41 +0000 Ideas here are probably still valid for future design considerations. Moving to future.
