Description
Problem
The Dockerfile currently compiles Ruby 3.2.2 from source using ruby-build. This takes about 5 minutes and accounts for most of the Docker build time.
curl -L https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build/archive/refs/tags/v20231012.tar.gz | tar -zxvf - -C /tmp/ && \
cd /tmp/ruby-build-* && ./install.sh && cd / && \
ruby-build -v 3.2.2 /usr/local && rm -rfv /tmp/ruby-build-*Why we don't need to do this
Ruby is only used to run Licensee (the license detection tool). Licensee 9.16.1 requires Ruby >= 3.0.
Debian Trixie (our base image node:24-trixie) ships with Ruby 3.3, which satisfies this requirement.
Proposed change
Replace the ruby-build compilation with:
apt-get install -y ruby ruby-devBuild time comparison
| Build | Time |
|---|---|
| Before (compile from source) | 6m 28s |
| After (Debian package) | 4m 5s |
| Saved | 2m 23s (37%) |
The Ruby installation step specifically went from ~5 minutes to ~14 seconds.
