+We love your input! We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:
+
+- Reporting a bug
+- Discussing the current state of the code
+- Submitting a fix
+- Proposing new features
+- Becoming a maintainer
+
+## We Develop with Github
+We use github to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.
+
+## Stay in touch
+
+Join us in [slack](https://luet.slack.com/join/shared_invite/enQtOTQxMjcyNDQ0MDUxLWQ5ODVlNTI1MTYzNDRkYzkyYmM1YWE5YjM0NTliNDEzNmQwMTkxNDRhNDIzM2Y5NDBlOTZjZTYxYWQyNDE4YzY#/) and hang out with the community! It will be much easier to get started and do your first steps in contributing to the project.
+
+## All Code Changes Happen Through Pull Requests
+Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase. We actively welcome your pull requests:
+
+1. Fork the repo you want to contribute to and create your branch from `develop`.
+2. If you've added code that should be tested, add tests.
+3. If you've changed APIs, update the [documentation](https://github.com/Luet-lab/docs).
+4. Ensure the test suite passes.
+5. Make sure your code lints.
+6. Issue that pull request!

+## Any contributions you make will be under the Software License of the repository
+In short, when you submit code changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same License that covers the project. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.
+
+## Report bugs using Github's [issues](https://github.com/mudler/luet/issues)
+We use GitHub issues to track public bugs. Report a bug by [opening a new issue](https://github.com/mudler/luet/issues/new); it's that easy!
+
+## Write bug reports with detail, background, and sample code
+Try to be as more descriptive as possible. When opening a new issue you will be prompted to choose between a bug or a feature request, with a small template to fill details with. Be specific!
+
+**Great Bug Reports** tend to have:
+
+- A quick summary and/or background
+- Steps to reproduce
+  - Be specific!
+  - Give sample code if you can. 
+- What you expected would happen
+- What actually happens
+- Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn't work)
+
+People *love* thorough bug reports.

 Luet is a multi-platform Package Manager based off from containers - it uses Docker (and others) to build packages. It has zero dependencies and it is well suitable for "from scratch" environments. It can also version entire rootfs and enables delivery of OTA-alike updates, making it a perfect fit for the Edge computing era and IoT embedded devices.

 It offers a simple [specfile format](https://luet-lab.github.io/docs/docs/concepts/packages/specfile/) in YAML notation to define both [packages](https://luet-lab.github.io/docs/docs/concepts/packages/) and [rootfs](https://luet-lab.github.io/docs/docs/concepts/packages/#package-layers). As it is based on containers, it can be also used to build stages for Linux From Scratch installations and it can build and track updates for those systems.

 It is written entirely in Golang and where used as package manager, it can run in from scratch environment, with zero dependencies.

 ## In a glance

 - Luet can reuse Gentoo's portage tree hierarchy, and it is heavily inspired from it.

Ettore Di Giacinto	33b1c63815	Allow to have shared templates across packages This changeset allows to have shared templates in a static folder "templates" present in each luet tree. If the directory is present, it gets scanned and templated accordingly on top of each package. This allows to use such folder to store custom blocks to share between packages. This is still experimental and subject to change, this is just a first pass version to provide the feature. It needs to be refined still as it would be more elegant to use the helm engine properly and map our structure to the engine instead of adapting it roughly. Fixes #224	2021-08-04 16:35:28 +02:00

Ettore Di Giacinto	2efb17a06c	Add specific field to resolve final images This commit starts deprecation of `join` keyword in favor of `requires_final_images` as boolean in the compilation spec. The change is driven by two reasons: syntax and guarantee unique hashes. - the hashtree when computing a hash it analizes the requires field of each spec, ignoring the join field - the join field doesn't add much value. Having it separate suggests that a spec can contain both `requires` and `join`, but that's not actually true. We just act differently on the same list.

Itxaka	1bd4d520a4	Add 2 new events for image unpacking (#226 ) * Reduce possibility of circular dependency Just by adding an import for bus to anything in the helper dir, we would run into a circular dependency due to how things are structured. That means that we cannot set any events for unpacking or docker helper pulling an image. This commit tries to work around this by doing several things. - Remove full imports of the helper module by segmentating some modules into their own submodule, like docker or match so just using a small match function doesnt bring the whole module - Removing a simple function to check if a dir exists from importing the full helper module and instead write the function (5 lines) - Using logrus in the bus module instead of logger, which avoids a circular dependency Signed-off-by: Itxaka <igarcia@suse.com> * Add two new events for unpacking an image Both pre and post unpacking an image Signed-off-by: Itxaka <igarcia@suse.com>	2021-06-01 16:43:31 +02:00

Ettore Di Giacinto	92ea69a2b9	Don't always generate artifact Distinguish rather if we should generate artifact of the deps of a package or not, and ensure that we just force artifact generation for targets when computing the join image. Fixes #217	2021-05-25 13:28:14 +02:00
Ettore Di Giacinto	838899aa83	Respect create-repo --force-push with metadata files Don't force push package metadata with docker repository. We were pushing regardless .metadata.yaml files even if packages were not, also when calling create-repo without --force-push.	2021-05-25 12:13:23 +02:00

Ettore Di Giacinto	c277ac0f94	Add join keyword to generate parent image from final artifacts A new keyword `join` is introduced to generate the parent image. It takes precedence over a `requires` or a `image` already defined in a spec. It will generate all the artifacts from the packages listed and join them in a single image which will be used as parent for the package build process. This is a change which invalidates priorly generated hashes. Fixes #173	2021-05-21 14:52:48 +02:00

Ettore Di Giacinto	7f047e4fc2	Multi-stage builds from hash images Implement multi-stage copy from images part of the build cache of a package. Note, this is not the final images where are we copying files from, but the underlying build container. Skipping the test on img backend because it fails when pulling external images during multi-stage build... Fixes #190	2021-05-18 12:16:35 +02:00
