[jira] [Commented] (CONNECTORS-1492) Add support for Docker

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1492?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17792393#comment-17792393 ] 

Piergiorgio Lucidi commented on CONNECTORS-1492:
------------------------------------------------

A first goal is accomplished because now developers can use the ManifoldCF SDK to extend the platform with new connectors and extensions.

Anyway I think that we should definitely distribute a Docker image without including the connectors that are not compliant with the Apache License.

I'm thinking of all the connectors requiring additional libraries in the connectors-lib-proprietary, in this case we could remove these JARs from the Docker distribution.

It would be interesting to understand what we could distribute inside a Docker image and I think that the effort for creating a Docker image it will be not so heavy.

> This is a project idea for [Google Summer of Code|https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/] (GSOC).
> To discuss this or other ideas with your potential mentor from the Apache ManifoldCF project, sign up and post to the dev@manifoldcf.apache.org list, including "[GSOC]" in the subject. You may also comment on this Jira issue if you have created an account. 
> We would like to adopt Docker to provide ready to use images with preconfigured architecture stack for ManifoldCF. This will include ManifoldCF itself but also the related database that can be MySQL, PostgreSQL and so on.
> This will help developers to work and put in production a complete ManifoldCF installation.
> You will be involved in the development of the following tasks, you will learn how to:
>  * Write Docker files
>  * Write Docker Compose files
>  * Implement unit tests
>  * Build all the integration tests
>  * Write the documentation for new component
> We have a complete documentation about ManifioldCF:
> [https://manifoldcf.apache.org/release/release-2.9.1/en_US/concepts.html]
> Take a look at our book to understand better the framework and how to extend it in different ways:
