Decide where Cypht's Docker images will live

[marclaporte]

Cypht's founder (Jason Munro) was publishing Docker images here: https://hub.docker.com/r/sailfrog/cypht-docker

More background info here: cypht-org/cypht-docker#31 but Jason's expertise is not Docker, and this part was not worked on that much. Despite this, we have over 100K+ pulls!

We have control of this account and Jason is not using for anything else.

Option 1:

• We deprecate https://hub.docker.com/r/sailfrog/cypht-docker and we point everyone to a URL that looks more official
• We need to do some research to see if there is a seamless redirect, or accept any negative impacts on the project (ex.: tons of users need to update their repos, loosing the pull stats, etc.

Option 2:

• We keep https://hub.docker.com/r/sailfrog/cypht-docker as the official source
• We convert it to an organization: https://docs.docker.com/admin/convert-account/
• We document clearly any changes following the major changes: Docker refresh #1001

We are a good candidate for "Docker-Sponsored Open Source program"
https://www.docker.com/community/open-source/application/

Can someone think of an option 3?

On a related note: while the project now lives at https://github.com/cypht-org/cypht instead of https://github.com/jasonmunro/cypht, we opted to not change the packages on Packagist.org. So we have less official-looking URLs:

• https://packagist.org/packages/jason-munro/cypht
• https://packagist.org/packages/henrique-borba/php-sieve-manager

Docker-Sponsored Open Source program is a great idea

@rodriguezny @kroky @fabiomontefuscolo please advise.

There is a while since I have played in Docker hub, but I feel you first need to create an Org on their website, and then, create the repo in the Org account. That would allow you to have a more meaningful URL and also add other people to manage the repo, without giving them your credentials. The same we did for Tiki (with Benoit).

I think it is still time to change URL, but well, if you can keep the old address hanging there for some weeks, people will have time to replace the URL in their CI systems or other automated routines.

@marclaporte does Tiki have a sponsored account? (I can't see from my account)

As always, thank you for the Cypht!! 😄 🤓

does Tiki have a sponsored account?

yes, managed by @rodriguezny

Option 2 sounds good.

[rodriguezny]

Option 1 would be good as it can allow to have a URL that looks more official. Instead of its cons, we should pick it. The main issue for me with option 1 is to loose the 100K+ pull stats. I would like to have a cypht-org account on dockerhub as we have on github. So, if there is nothing to do to remediate to the 100K+ lost, let's pick option 2 due to cons that has option 1.

Hello everyone, after re-analyzing of pros and cons of both of the 2 options, we(@marclaporte and I) decided to pick the option 1. Sure we will loose the 100K+ but we will a more official account like other projects on dockerhub . We will gain pull stats with time as cypht docker image is now more enhanced with the help of @jonocodes (thank you) and cypht app itself is being enhanced from day to day with the help of different contributors( thanks to everyone). We already created https://hub.docker.com/orgs/cypht, an organization account where cypht's docker images will live. We also decide to change the image name from cypht-docker to simply "cypht". So the image will be tagged like this when pushing cypht/cypht:tag_name
Thanks!

[marclaporte]

https://hub.docker.com/u/cypht will have something to pull soon!

Thank you @jonocodes for your leadership and expertise!
