Time Nick Message 00:13 tuxayo +1 , major OSes having still old releases supported doesn't mean programs still have to support that. Things are less strict. 00:13 dcook They're also "supported" in a way that I think isn't accessible to most users anyway. 00:14 dcook I think it comes with added fees so I don't know if people actually buy that extra support or just say it's supported because there's a future date published on the internet.. 00:15 dcook Docker is available from RHEL 7+ anyway, so hopefully koha-docker will mature and then it's less of an issue after that 00:16 dcook These days, if you're not running Debian/Ubuntu and want Koha, then I'd say the way to do it would be via Docker if you don't want to switch OSes 00:16 dcook Easier said than done at the moment, but I think Tomas and folk are working on it 00:17 tuxayo ""supported" in a way that I think isn't accessible to most users anyway. " 00:17 tuxayo Aren't libraries or any public institutions have some chance of being Red Hat customers for stuff like Extended Life-cycle Support (ELS) ? 00:17 tuxayo Still should be rare though. 00:20 tuxayo "Docker is available from RHEL 7+ anyway, so hopefully koha-docker will mature and then it's less of an issue after that" 00:20 tuxayo Indeed, it feel it would be easier to get sysadmins to manage a container of a recent OS than upgrade the OS running on the bare metal. 00:20 tuxayo Even though it's still an OS to manage, update look for security issue. So I'm not sure if objectively there is much difference. 00:22 tuxayo "if you're not running Debian/Ubuntu and want Koha, then I'd say the way to do it would be via Docker if you don't want to switch OSes" 00:22 tuxayo Ah I see, it's objectively simpler to use containers if your bare metal OS it already running other stuff. 00:24 tuxayo > Easier said than done at the moment, but I think Tomas and folk are working on it 00:24 tuxayo dcook doesn't it work well to spin a Debian or Ubuntu container and follow the install instructions? 00:24 tuxayo Unless it's about using docker like a packaging format instead of just light VMs 00:27 dcook tuxayo: You have to be careful with your volumes if you don't want things to disappear when it comes time to update your container image 00:28 dcook Managing containers comes with its own challenges I reckon. It's scarier to do updates since you're updating the whole thing instead of just a few files 00:32 tuxayo That lessens the potential of containers helping for old OS installs. And convincing to use containers instead of switching the OS. Still a net gain I think. 00:33 dcook Well if their sysadmins are doing the work. If someone experienced with Koha is doing it, I think it'll be fine (once the Koha community builds up its skills too) 00:33 dcook But I do wonder... 00:33 dcook It might be wise for Docker images to take over completely, so that everyone is deploying it the same way 00:34 dcook I think the images would still be using Debian or Ubuntu and we'd still end up with custom Deb packages on custom images 00:34 dcook But if that base infrastructure choice were shared across the board then it would be easier for everyone to support and collaborate... 00:48 tuxayo > It might be wise for Docker images to take over completely 00:48 tuxayo Hopefully there will be a viable fork if Microsoft does something predatory. In the vein of embrace, extend, and extinguish. 00:48 tuxayo If they are subtile enough it will never be problematic enough to create the incentive of a fork to try to keep monopoly. And do things boiling frog style. 00:49 tuxayo Hopefully there will never be a "business opportunity" to monetize docker and the sales at Azure will be enough as well as having devs not switching to Linux anymore due to having now most nice stuff on Windows. 00:50 dcook There are already business opportunities for monetizing Docker and so far so good I think 00:50 dcook Most of the core things should be open as well 00:51 dcook Funny enough Red Hat's Podman is a drop-in replacement for Docker 00:51 dcook I think Podman is actually supposed to be better than Docker. There have been times I've thought of trying it out 00:59 tuxayo > Most of the core things should be open as well 00:59 tuxayo There are non-core things that can become very prevalent and an obstacle if needing to migrate. Hopefully nothing like that get will prevalent in the industry. 00:59 tuxayo Given there didn't seems to be mass migration from mongoDB and elasticsearch when they effectively became non libre as a whole, that looks like a real risk. 00:59 tuxayo Good to know about Podman, thanks. 00:59 dcook That's true. That is a worry that I have too 01:00 dcook I think it's one reason why I haven't pushed to use Docker in prod beyond times where it's been the only choice 01:02 dcook I'd forgotten that Kubernetes stopped using Docker a while ago. It can use Docker images which are just OCI images I think.. 01:02 tuxayo Maybe just using it as a light VM and for the propositioning using Ansible would make the thing pretty safe since it could be swapped with even LXD 01:03 tuxayo Ah great no need to even give up on Kubernetes 01:03 dcook Yeah lots of different tools for working with containers 01:04 tuxayo (Assuming LXD and podman comply with OCI) 01:04 dcook Can't speak to LXD but Podman does 01:05 dcook What we call Docker images are really OCI images, and they're widely supported 01:05 dcook So I think overall it'd be OK 01:06 dcook Looks like LXD doesn't though 01:06 dcook But I think if we need to jump ship then we do that when the time comes. Rolling with the punches... getting with the times... etc 01:09 tuxayo > and for the propositioning using Ansible would make the thing pretty safe 01:09 tuxayo Oh and that also avoids the issue of prebuild images. I'm not sure most production deployments of apps rebuild their images. It's another version of downloading and running binaries from the internet. Only without touching the host OS. 01:10 tuxayo > Looks like LXD doesn't though 01:10 tuxayo Oh :( 01:14 tuxayo > if we need to jump ship then we do that when the time comes 01:14 tuxayo It's not the same effort if having many hours of provisioning work coded in docker instead of Ansible. That's a choice for every project. 01:14 tuxayo And on a wider scale, Podman has to exist and Kubernetes to support it. There needed to be enough people using (and continuing to use) and making these alternatives so everyone has those lifeboats if needed. 01:16 dcook Yeah we got to keep our eyes and ears open 01:16 dcook The work involved in making things work with Docker is generally useful work anyway 01:17 tuxayo > we got to keep our eyes and ears open 01:17 tuxayo speaking of that, I found this: https://katacontainers.io/ 01:18 dcook Yeah the name is familiar but I can't remember why 01:20 dcook So I have this system that I run in a VM in prod, but locally I run it on Docker 01:20 dcook And I've developed services for it that locally I'll run in separate containers 01:20 dcook But they can easily run on the same VM too 01:21 tuxayo > The work involved in making things work with Docker is generally useful work anyway 01:21 tuxayo Indeed there is a lot. Though I wonder how hard it's to empty an existing dockerfile and to migrate the stuff to ansible, salt or something else. 01:21 dcook By architecting it to work in containers, I just made it easy to manage its config and dependencies 01:21 tuxayo nice :D 01:21 dcook Ideally your Dockerfile shouldn't be that big 01:21 dcook If it is, it should probably have more things put into scripts 01:22 tuxayo Isn't declarative syntax better for a fair share of cases compared to scripts? 01:23 dcook Depends on what you're trying/needing to do 01:23 dcook https://gitlab.com/koha-community/docker/koha-docker/-/blob/master/Dockerfile?ref_type=heads 01:23 tuxayo Wait, dockefile are more just like scripts than declarative stuff? 01:24 dcook Ansible and Docker aren't really trying to solve the same problems 01:25 tuxayo Right, it's more like scripts. I don't know why I had an idea closer to a declarative paradigm. Maybe because of the logic of destroying and building from scratch a clean thing that docker and ansible allow to do. 01:27 tuxayo dcook: QA question, should we prefer to have default values in the constructor rather than in the function? When possible, like seemingly here: 01:27 tuxayo https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=154680&action=diff 01:27 tuxayo vs part of the changes could be here: 01:27 tuxayo https://git.koha-community.org/Koha-community/Koha/src/commit/e26d7c783eb8c70d318e402e3a90930afcff44cd/C4/Patroncards/Patroncard.pm#L74 01:27 tuxayo I don't know enough about which Perl good practices we should try to care about beyond our mandatory guidelines. 01:29 dcook Yeah always a tough one eh 01:30 dcook In theory, defaults in the constructor, but then Perl lets you mess with things, so sometimes it feels safer doing it in the function where no one else could mess with it 01:31 tcohen[m] Constructor. And check+exceptions for bad ones 01:38 tuxayo > In theory, defaults in the constructor 01:38 tuxayo Good, same a other langs :) 01:38 tuxayo *as 01:39 tuxayo tcohen: hola :) 01:39 tuxayo > Constructor 01:39 tuxayo So in this case I should do a follow-up a continue the review. 01:39 tcohen[m] We need to short circuit early if possible. On such deeply nested code as Koha's, tracking down where things come from is challenging. 01:39 tuxayo "for bad ones" what do you mean? 01:40 tuxayo s/a/and/ 01:40 tcohen[m] I should be sleeping so lacking some context. But yeah. Default where it makes sense, explode where it makes sense, so devs have tools to understand what they need to do 01:40 * dcook thumbs up 01:40 dcook Why are you're you sleeping, tcohen[m]? 01:41 dcook aren't* 01:41 dcook "Why are you not sleeping"* 01:41 dcook Jeez maybe I should go back to bed... 01:41 tcohen[m] Hi both. Interested in reading the containers talk tomorrow morning 01:41 * dcook is always down to talk about containers 01:42 tcohen[m] Good night! 01:42 dcook night! 01:44 tuxayo tcohen good night, thanks for passing by :) 01:54 tuxayo dcook: thanks for the update on the world of containers ^^ And the QA advice. I'll make a follow-up for setting the default in the constructor. The rest of the changes seems to be using intermediate variables for calculations in various steps instead of a long one. + reuse of a value. So good stuff. 02:19 tuxayo see you another day all :) 06:25 marcelr hi #koha 06:54 magnuse \o/ 06:54 marcelr o/ 07:03 dcook hola hola 07:03 dcook and ciao ciao 07:08 * cait waves 07:17 magnuse ciao dcook 08:04 thomas63[m] hi there...
