It is designed to have a small footprint and boot extremely quickly on VMware platforms. Photon OS is intended to invite collaboration around running containerized applications in a virtualized environment. + +Photon contains `tdnf`, a new, open-source, yum-compatible package manager that will help make the system as small as possible, but preserve the robust yum package management capabilities. + +See the [FAQ](http://vmware.github.io/photon/assets/files/photon_faqs.pdf) for more information. + +## How to use these images + +Photon OS images are intended for use in the **FROM** field of an application's `Dockerfile`. For example, to use VMware Photon 1.0RC as the base of an image, specify `FROM photon:1.0RC`. + +## Support + +Photon OS is released as open source software and comes with no commercial support. + +But since we want to ensure success and recognize that Photon OS™ consumers might fall into a range of roles - from developers that are steeped in the conventions of open-source to customers that are more accustomed to VMware commercial offerings, we offer several methods of engaging with the Photon OS team and community. + +For our developer community, feel free to join our Google groups at [vmware-photon-os-dev](https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21forum/vmware-photon-dev) + +For more general user questions, visit the Photon OS user forum in our [Photon OS VMware Community](http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/devops/project-photon). diff --git a/photon/license.md b/photon/license.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1c4b9222 --- /dev/null +++ b/photon/license.md @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +View [license information](https://github.com/vmware/photon/blob/master/LICENSE) for the software contained in this image. diff --git a/photon/logo.png b/photon/logo.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..be55bcd2 Binary files /dev/null and b/photon/logo.png differ diff --git a/update.sh b/update.sh index e4a0b5f8..c92d0582 100755 --- a/update.sh +++ b/update.sh @@ -59,6 +59,7 @@ declare -A otherRepos=( [opensuse]='https://github.com/openSUSE/docker-containers-build' [oraclelinux]='https://github.com/oracle/docker' [perl]='https://github.com/Perl/docker-perl' + [photon]='https://github.com/frapposelli/photon-docker-image' [r-base]='https://github.com/rocker-org/rocker' [rakudo]='https://github.com/perl6/docker' [registry]='https://github.com/docker/docker-registry'
