Hello there. Checking if this task is still on releng's radar, and whether there is an ETA?

I recently had to do some maintenance on my custom gitlab runner and so was reminded of this.

Thanks!

Allow docker/dockerfile frontend

@xcollazo Thanks for the ping. I'll work on getting something going this week.

@xcollazo I've updated kokkuri to support Dockerfiles. Sample use:

include:
  - project: 'repos/releng/kokkuri'
    file: 'includes/images.yaml'

stages:
  - one

test:
  stage: one
  extends: .kokkuri:build-image
  variables:
    BUILD_CONFIG: Dockerfile
    BUILD_VARIANT: ""

Point BUILD_CONFIG at your dockerfile and set BUILD_VARIANT to the name of the build stage or to a blank string to indicate the default stage.

Lemme know how it goes.

Btw, the dockerfile frontend does not work right with .kokkuri:build-and-run-image because the run-image logic is only implemented by the blubber/buildkit frontend.

Awesome! Thanks @dancy, will test this in the near future!

For completeness, we did start utilizing this mechanism via @Antoine_Quhen's work on T318346 for our airflow-dags project. We also want to migrate conda-analytics to this mechanism in the future.

So, thanks @dancy !
