Gentoo Docker Images

A collection of Dockerfiles for generating Gentoo docker images.

These images are intended to be created automatically by a travis cron job and pushed to docker hub. This repository include basic stage3 images and an image usable as a /usr/portage volume

Building the containers

The containers are created using a multi-stage build, which requires docker-17.05.0 or later. The container being built is defined by the TARGET environment variable:

TARGET=stage3-amd64 ./build.sh

Using the portage container as a data volume

docker create -v /usr/portage --name myportagesnapshot gentoo/portage:latest /bin/true
docker run --volumes-from myportagesnapshot gentoo/stage3-amd64:latest /bin/bash
