Kaniko

Kaniko is “a tool to build container images from a Dockerfile, inside a container or Kubernetes cluster”.

In 2018 when I started using Jenkins X to power our CI/CD pipelines on Kubernetes, I quickly identified Kaniko to build our container images.

Unfortunately, as explained in the Dailymotion’s journey from Jenkins to Jenkins X blog post I wrote, I found a few bugs which I fixed in Kaniko:

• Fix for multi-stage builds
• Fix to allow building multiple images using the same container

I also added a few new features:

• Support for multiple registry mirrors with fallback
• Warmer now supports all registry-related flags
