docker-ca-certificates

This image is intended for programs that use a distroless FROM image (such as scratch) and use /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt as the trusted CA bundle.

Physically, it does not appear possible to copy a symlink to a scratch docker image. For that reason we do not provide all the files checked in https://golang.org/src/crypto/x509/root_linux.go as to not duplicate the CA bundle file.

The intent is to trust Alpine's ca-certificates package. This should be kept up-to-date inline with upstream trust from Mozilla. We can look at whether an alternate trust source such as Debian/GNU or Google is a better option (feel free to raise a GitHub issue for discussion).

Usage

Basic pattern for a scratch based image, assuming locally pre-built binary:

FROM scentregroup/ca-certificates as certs

FROM scratch
COPY --from=certs /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
COPY ./myclient /myclient
CMD ["/myclient"]

Testing

Integration testing:

make docker-test
