Secure & Daemonless Container Image Builds in Kubernetes
Unlock secure and efficient container image builds directly within Kubernetes, eliminating the need for a Docker daemon. This project provides a robust, daemonless solution for CI/CD pipelines and sensitive build environments.
Project Introduction
Summary
This project is a tool to build container images from a Dockerfile and push them to a registry. It's designed to be run as a container, typically within a Kubernetes cluster, and does not depend on a Docker daemon.
Problem Solved
Traditional container image building often relies on a privileged Docker daemon, presenting security risks and complexities, especially within containerized CI/CD pipelines running on platforms like Kubernetes. Managing the daemon's state and permissions within transient CI environments is challenging.
Core Features
Daemonless Container Builds
Build container images from a Dockerfile and context without requiring a Docker daemon.
Native Kubernetes Integration
Allows building images from within a Kubernetes cluster, integrating seamlessly with your orchestration.
Flexible Build Contexts and Destinations
Enables builds from various sources like GCS, S3, or local volumes, and pushes to multiple registries.
Tech Stack
Use Cases
The daemonless nature and Kubernetes native integration make this project ideal for various build scenarios:
CI/CD Pipeline Integration
Details
Integrate container image building directly into your Kubernetes-native CI/CD pipelines (e.g., using Tekton, GitLab CI on Kubernetes) without needing a sidecar Docker daemon.
User Value
Faster, more secure, and simplified CI/CD workflows.
Secure and Restricted Environments
Details
Build images in restricted or air-gapped environments where access to external Docker daemons is not feasible or permitted.
User Value
Enables container adoption in highly regulated or isolated networks.
Secure Registry Authentication
Details
Use Kubernetes service accounts for authentication to registries, avoiding the need to distribute sensitive credentials widely.
User Value
Improved credential management and reduced risk of exposure.
