Support offline creation of machine instance #1422

afbjorklund · 2023-03-17T16:21:32Z

Description

Currently the baseimage and the nerdctl-full can be cached, so that they don't have to be downloaded.

But then there are still some packages missing, which means that the machine needs Internet access.

It would be nice if there was a way to cache also these files, perhaps using something like repro-get ?

So that one could start up an instance without external network, after making sure everything is cached.

These are cached:

Maybe these could be integrated into the ~/.lima/cache ? And then mounted and used.

I want to be able to create a cache using a template, and then re-use (only) that offline.

An alternative would be to just mount the lists and archives, but that is a bigger download.

/var/lib/apt/lists
/var/cache/apt/archives

It seems like repro-get would be able to handle it, provided with an input file and a cache ?

Importing the required commands as a library (to guestagent), might be less bloated....

        "github.com/reproducible-containers/repro-get/pkg/cache"
        "github.com/reproducible-containers/repro-get/pkg/distro"

        "github.com/reproducible-containers/repro-get/pkg/distro/arch"

        "github.com/reproducible-containers/repro-get/pkg/filespec"
        "github.com/reproducible-containers/repro-get/pkg/envutil"

Like generate-hash and install-packages, something like that. More for cache* and downloader.

* i.e. it needs some code to translate back and forth between the different cache formats

There was a surprisingly large number of packages installed for ubuntu, including a new kernel.

Somewhat related to non-packages, as well:

Allow further customization of Lima’s boot workflow #1093

Currently it only supports "nerdctl-full" archives.

Starting kubernetes (k3s/k8s) also requires images:

185M k3s-airgap-images-amd64.tar.gz

208M k8s-airgap-images-amd64.tar.gz
