F24 System Wide Change: Ruby 2.3
by Jan Kurik 09 Dec '15

09 Dec '15

= Proposed System Wide Change: Ruby 2.3 = https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Ruby_2.3 Change owner(s): * Vít Ondruch <vondruch AT redhat DOT com> Ruby 2.3 is the latest stable version of Ruby. Many new features and improvements are included for the increasingly diverse and expanding demands for Ruby. With this major update from Ruby 2.2 in Fedora 22 to Ruby 2.3 in Fedora 24, alongside JRuby, Fedora becomes the superior Ruby development platform. == Detailed Description == Ruby 2.3 is upstream's new major release of Ruby. Many new features and improvements are included. A Frozen String Literal Pragma is introduced. With Ruby 2.1, "str".freeze has been optimized to reduce object allocation. Ruby 2.3 introduces a new magic comment and command line option to freeze all string literals in the source files. Additionally for debugging, you can get where the object is created on "can't modify frozen String" error by --enable-frozen-string-literal-debug. A safe navigation operator, which already exists in C#, Groovy, and Swift, is introduced to ease nil handling as obj&.foo. Array#dig and Hash#dig are also added. The did_you_mean gem is bundled. The did_you_mean gem shows the candidates on the NameError and NoMethodError to ease debugging. Safe levels $SAFE=2 and $SAFE=3 are obsolete. == Scope == Proposal owners: * Finish packaging of Ruby 2.3. Current changes available in private-ruby-2.3 branch of ruby package in dist-git. * Rebuilding of Ruby packages providing native extensions (i.e. packages which depends on libruby). Other developers: * Rebuild of packages with binary extensions (i.e. packages which depends on libruby) will be handled automatically, but some packages might need fixes/updates to support Ruby 2.3 properly. Release engineering: * Separate Koji tag for package rebuild will be needed. Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) -- Jan Kuřík Platform & Fedora Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic

F24 System Wide Change: Layered Docker Image Build Service
by Jan Kurik 03 Dec '15

03 Dec '15

= Proposed System Wide Change: Layered Docker Image Build Service = https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Layered_Docker_Image_Build_Service Change owner(s): * Colin Walters <walters AT redhat DOT com> * Adam Miller <maxamillion AT gmail DOT com > * Tomas Tomecek <ttomecek AT redhat DOT com> * Tim Waugh <twaugh AT redhat DOT com> * Amanda Carter <acarter AT redhat DOT com> Fedora currently ships a Docker base image, but Docker supports a layering concept. There are some applications like Cockpit which we would like to ship as layered applications. This change will deploy the build service to support building and delivering a set of layered Docker images, and will enable Fedora contributors to create and maintain Dockerfiles from which those images will be generated. == Detailed Description == This change opens up an new type of official binary artifact produced by Fedora. Currently, we produce two main types of artifacts: RPMs, and images. The RPMs are created in Koji from specfiles in dist-git. The images come in different formats, but have in common creation in Koji from kickstart files — this includes the official Fedora Docker Base Image. This change introduces a new type of image, a Docker Layered Image, which is created from a Dockerfile and builds on top of that base image. The system has five major parts: A command-line client — already integrated into rpkg; needs only minor work to enable in fedpkg (there is discussion about either extending fedpkg or adding a new fedcontainer utility) * dist-git for Dockerfiles * A koji plugin, containerbuild * An OpenShift 3 backend * A distribution mechanism; a Docker Registry * Currently evaluating options for this * * Pulp Crane * * Docker Registry == Scope == For the Scope of this Change please check https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Layered_Docker_Image_Build_Service#S… -- Jan Kuřík Platform & Fedora Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic
