Request for publishing Power (ppc64le) image on DockerHub

[seth-priya]

I am working on a use case which depends on the availability of phusion/baseimage for Power (ppc64le). The image builds successfully using the "docker build" command - no changes to the Dockerfile were required.

The following steps from the travis.yml succeed:

docker build -t ${NAME}:${VERSION} --rm image
env NAME=${NAME} VERSION=${VERSION} ./test/runner.sh

So, I believe, that all that will be needed from the perspective of building the image would be to enable support for Power in the travis,yml file by adding
linux-ppc64le in the os: section

Example:
https://github.com/fluent/fluentd-docker-image/blob/master/.travis.yml#L5

Would it be possible for the Power image to be then made available on DockerHub? Looking forward to suggestions, inputs and support on this .. thank you!!

Reference link to the "Power" Travis job
https://travis-ci.org/seth-priya/baseimage-docker/jobs/510820393

It is failing at the last step i.e. "docker login" similar to its Intel counterpart

Any thoughts?

I'm not sure we want to be in the business of building images for every architecture, as that would imply we're also capable of testing them... you are welcome to fork and configure travis this way.

Sorry for the delay in reply.

I am inclined to agree with that, the best OSS projects are forks of a core which have a specific goal in mind which deviates from the core mission of the original OSS project. (Kubuntu, MariaDB, etc)
