dockerTools.buildLayeredImage: init Create a many-layered Docker Image. Implements much less than buildImage: - Doesn't support specific uids/gids - Doesn't support runninng commands after building - Doesn't require qemu - Doesn't create mutable copies of the files in the path - Doesn't support parent images If you want those feature, I recommend using buildLayeredImage as an input to buildImage. Notably, it does support: - Caching low level, common paths based on a graph traversial algorithm, see referencesByPopularity in 0a80233487993256e811f566b1c80a40394c03d6 - Configurable number of layers. If you're not using AUFS or not extending the image, you can specify a larger number of layers at build time: pkgs.dockerTools.buildLayeredImage { name = "hello"; maxLayers = 128; config.Cmd = [ "${pkgs.gitFull}/bin/git" ]; }; - Parallelized creation of the layers, improving build speed. - The contents of the image includes the closure of the configuration, so you don't have to specify paths in contents and config. With buildImage, paths referred to by the config were not included automatically in the image. Thus, if you wanted to call Git, you had to specify it twice: pkgs.dockerTools.buildImage { name = "hello"; contents = [ pkgs.gitFull ]; config.Cmd = [ "${pkgs.gitFull}/bin/git" ]; }; buildLayeredImage on the other hand includes the runtime closure of the config when calculating the contents of the image: pkgs.dockerTools.buildImage { name = "hello"; config.Cmd = [ "${pkgs.gitFull}/bin/git" ]; }; Minor Problems - If any of the store paths change, every layer will be rebuilt in the nix-build. However, beacuse the layers are bit-for-bit reproducable, when these images are loaded in to Docker they will match existing layers and not be imported or uploaded twice. Common Questions - Aren't Docker layers ordered? No. People who have used a Dockerfile before assume Docker's Layers are inherently ordered. However, this is not true -- Docker layers are content-addressable and are not explicitly layered until they are composed in to an Image. - What happens if I have more than maxLayers of store paths? The first (maxLayers-2) most "popular" paths will have their own individual layers, then layer #(maxLayers-1) will contain all the remaining "unpopular" paths, and finally layer #(maxLayers) will contain the Image configuration.

mkdir -p nix/store
# Then we change into the /nix/store in order to
# avoid a similar "file changed as we read it" error
# as above. Namely, if we use the absolute path of
# /nix/store/123-pkg and something new is added to the nix
# store while tar is running, it will detect a change to
# /nix/store and fail. Instead, if we cd into the nix store
# and copy the relative nix store path, tar will ignore
# changes to /nix/store. In order to create the correct
# structure in the tar file, we transform the relative nix
# store path to the absolute store path.
