If your interest in FlatPak is security, then a Jail is probably best. Linux doesn't have a standard approach to this so hence why FlatPak, Docker, Snaps and all that other crap exist.
If your interest in it is avoiding spraying cruft all over the filesystem, just use pkg_fetch(8) and extract...
...is the preferred/standard way of deploying an application to FreeBSD? I have a Go app, and on my local dev machine I run it and test it with Docker. I have also deployed it in the past using Docker to a VPS when doing a real world stress test. But AFAIK docker does not run on FreeBSD or...
...for Alpine and Ubuntu with userlands in /compat/alpine and /compat/ubuntu . For containers builds, I settled on just using Alpine and adjusted docker-compose.yml to pull Alpine based dependencies. They ran fine in Docker on Alpine Linux on real hardware and in Podman on FreeBSD with Alpine...
...micro-kernel eventually. Because of driver-hell....and security/stability.
FreeBSD will be for servers using bhyve virtualization, because Docker (or Podman run as root), combined with systemd linux containers will be deemed security risk. Jails will become Alcatraz or they will not survive...
...I confused Discourse with Discord.
Why FreeBSD does not use Discourse is probably because
a) it is based on Ruby on Rails and
b) you will get only szpport when nunning from a Docker container.
c) installing it ffrom scratch without docker is possible but s a PITA and updating it then a...
Indeed, probs for the best. I do tend to upset Docker kids when I introduce them to reality but they simply can't understand.
Yep. The handbook documents loads of 3rd party ports. Some good; some not so good. None of them are officially part of FreeBSD.
...perl 5.40.2 by adjusting the plist, removing the failed components of the make, and then rerunning make install.
I did note that Lyrion has a docker build available. My next step would have been to install it that way. I have an alpine bhyve instance running docker and could have stuck it...
...about ZFS, Bhyve and so on.
xibo - I agree with your points, but I will probably aim to get stuff running first, then work on better (non-docker) installation later. Your migration path looks good - I am retiring soon from paid work, so I can put some effort into it going forward. What ever...
...going to be able to overcome the host OS's shortcomings, either.
I might be religious here but IMO, if a software cannot be used outside of a Docker Container, then it shouldn't be used in the first place. Docker is supposed to be a containerization solution, not a software distribution...
...for the response! It's a good question, and my thoughts on how to proceed are based on me not understanding the possibilities of jails and docker in FreeBSD.
I agree that running a NAS in a VM is not worthwhile. Just because it can be done, doesn't mean it should!
I understand that Docker...
Whats the logic behind using Docker or NAS in a VM? That sort of defeats the purpose.
A simple setup would be running all of your applications in a Jail(s) on top a bunch of ZFS datasets. If you required an app that only runs on Linux, then you can throw in Bhyve. With ZFS + Jails you get an...
...means you can make a quick snapshot of the VM file for backups. Bhyve exposes the VM via VNC to you, if you want to.
FreeBSD does not have docker, but jails. Jails are the container solutions builtin to FreeBSD. Again there are some frontends around, I've been using ezjail-admin for ages...

A Debian install, with several small docker applications and Immich (also in Docker). I am running Asterisk on this as well to connect to HamsOverIP and HamshackHotline.

I use Gitea as my Docker image repository. I tested many other options but decided to stick with Gitea. The other options where mostly overkill. But, I also use Gitea for Git version control.
Without aim for completeness, to summarize my learnings. Context is having custom backend software already bundled as Docker (or OCI) images, so far running under Linux using docker-compose (or lately podman-compose). And now exploring a migration path to FreeBSD, with first step as migrating...
Hi,
While I have been trying to get rid of Docker & co I will need to host a simple container registry on my home network. Mainly to mirror images I use in case I loose network connectivity.
I was looking at my options on FreeBSD:
- Most straightforward seems to be to install Gitea (Gitea...
