Agenda

Review TODOs

• TODO: Greg to make the list of all in-flight things on the docker SIG wiki page
  • DONE: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Docker/SIG#Docker/Container-related_projects_currently_represented_in_the_SIG
• TODO: Some folks to look at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/releng/local-charts
  • Kosta had a peek, talked with Jeena on the Mac setup side
  • haven't used k8s before.
  • was slow on MacOS due to the fs mount issues
    • Jeena: a lot faster using minikube+sshfs. Has added some documentation that isn't yet merged :)
    • Adam: We have a slowness & macOS issue with mw-docker-dev too, that Krinkle recently submitted a patch for https://github.com/addshore/mediawiki-docker-dev/commit/f12a8f9fc162cbb8190bacf2cfecc7fcb5f48dd3 (not sure if this is useful for the local-charts stuff too)
      • ^ the above helps some. there's also an experimental approach used by https://github.com/lando/lando which copies directories you don't need to modify often/at all on your host (e.g. vendor, node_modules) and disables file sync for them. https://github.com/lando/lando/issues/1460 ( and docs http://pr-1500-v4h3hcq-iaimrn624qfk6.us.platform.sh/config/performance.html )
  • once xdebug is working would be happy to start using it/be an early adopter
• DONE: Brennen: Make an issue for followup on documentation stuff / coordinate a chat
  • https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T217614
  • https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Docker/SIG/Documentation
  • ...but we haven't gotten much further than that.
  • TODO: Eric and Brennen work on this next week, follow along on the task
