Ceph Development in Docker

Generate Docker images with customized versions of Ceph. The general procedure is the following:

1. Build the Ceph code base using any builder image.
2. Pack a new ceph-daemon image.
3. Deploy the image using the official ceph-ansible playbooks.

For information on using these Docker images, see our wiki.

Builders

Every builder image is in a builder-* folder. By convention, a builder image generates an install directory on the host that is later used to generate an ansible-deployable image (see below). For examples of this, see existing builders. Currently, we have builders for:

• vanilla Ceph
• Mantle
• zlog
