Re: [linuxtools-dev] regarding the dependency on spotify docker client

[Jeff Johnston <jjohnstn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Tony,

Our current plan is to use the last release of Spotify Docker Client as long as possible as we currently do not have the cycles to replace it.

We are certainly open to suggestions and patches.

We have started looking at Podman but this is not a viable replacement for non-linux systems.

We have in the past made patches to the upstream Spotify Docker Client and yes, we will need to create a fork for such future changes as needed but this will be

focussed only on Docker Tooling maintenance and not assuming general ownership of the project.

Regards,

-- Jeff J.

Hi linuxtools-dev.

 

Docker Tooling depends on Spotify Docker Client, which is no longer being maintained.

I had posted an issue asking if there is a well-supported fork but have not gotten any responses:

https://github.com/spotify/docker-client/issues/1166

 

What is the plan for addressing this?

The options I can think of are to either replace Spotify with an actively maintained Java client or transition to a fork which is maintained by the Docker Tooling Team.

 

Thanks for your attention!

Tony Homer
