02/12/2024, 3:11 PMMy vote would be no to not preinstall anything that's not needed by atlantis itself

02/12/2024, 3:11 PM@PePe Amengual points out there are mechanisms for end users to add arbitrary packages
Luke Massa
02/12/2024, 3:11 PMOtherwise it's just one more thing that might be out of date we have to continue to patch

02/12/2024, 3:11 PMYes you can customize the container. Is that the mechanism?
RB
02/12/2024, 3:12 PMDoes atlantis require bash?

02/12/2024, 3:12 PMIf we want to keep it thin, we may want to remove some cruft too

02/12/2024, 3:13 PMyeah we could potentially trim it down, though it's always harder to remove things since we want to be careful about breaking workflows
Luke Massa
02/12/2024, 3:13 PMWhich IMO is another reason not to add arbitrary packages, since that means we have to support them indefinitely, or risk breaking people's setups

02/12/2024, 3:14 PMMy thinking was kind of along the lines of github actions where jq, coreutils, and bash are available out of the box
RB
02/12/2024, 3:14 PMBut i can understand if an additional package is too much to maintain albeit small in comparison to bash

02/12/2024, 3:34 PMyeah that's my preference, curious what others think. At the very least it'd be good to have a documented process (even if just a comment in the docker build) that says how we decide what to add and what not to add
