Envbuilder full image caching
🗒️area-templates🔴closed
Hey! im trying to get envbuilder caching to work and im stuck.
First of all im confused, i can only enable pulling a fully cached image when all the layers are already built ? Why could i not just build them when they are not not then and pull it when it is ?
Doc Excerpt:
For now i worked around that by toggling the ENVBUILDER_GET_CACHED_IMAGE off first in the template to push the layers and then enabling it but my woes dont end there:
Envbuilder starts and compiles the image from my dockerfile inside the cluster, it pushes the layers all fine and i can even create a pod in the cluster with that image manually which works fine.
Envbuilder started with ENVBUILDER_GET_CACHED_IMAGE does a dry run, works because all the cached layers are fine and then even tells me that it found a cached image !
but instead of using that image now the pod completes and starts another envbuilder run

Doc Excerpt:
Probe Layer Cache
To check for the presence of a pre-built image, set ENVBUILDER_GET_CACHED_IMAGE=1. Instead of building the image, this will perform a "dry-run" build of the image, consulting ENVBUILDER_CACHE_REPO for each layer.
If any layer is found not to be present in the cache repo, envbuilder will exit with an error. Otherwise, the image will be emitted in the log output prefixed with the string ENVBUILDER_CACHED_IMAGE=....For now i worked around that by toggling the ENVBUILDER_GET_CACHED_IMAGE off first in the template to push the layers and then enabling it but my woes dont end there:
