Description

GIT and Docker can be used together to manage and automate the building and updating of Docker containers.

I will walk through the setup and creation of a simple git project to create and maintain a docker container.

I will use Arch linux as the host for both the git project development and the docker run host.

OpenElec systemd-nspawn Container

Description

OpenELEC runs Kodi, an award-winning free and open source (GPL) software media player and entertainment hub for digital media. For more info see http://kodi.tv . The base system has been designed and built from the ground up to be as efficient as possible – consuming only tiny disk and memory footprints and providing cutting edge hardware support to deliver a set-top box experience.

In order to run software above the base OpenELEC distribution with minimal impact to the OpenELEC base, one alternative is to use a container.

I have chosen to use systemd-nspawn instead of chroot. There are really no downsides as long as you can configure the required kernel config options and have a basic working knowledge of systemd.
