Platform Engineering Toolkit
Platform Engineering Toolkit

We are the Slalom Build Platform Engineering capability, and these are our container images with the tools we use for building, maintaining and securing infrastructure as code.

There are two different flavors, depending on your needs; standard and full. Standard contains most of the tools required for IaC projects, while Full contains additional languages and tools, such as Node, Go and Python.

Images are updated weekly (at least), and more frequently when tooling updates occur.

Getting started

To use an image in your pipeline, pull from one of these URLs:

ghcr.io/slalombuild/pe-toolkit-standard-alpine:latest
ghcr.io/slalombuild/pe-toolkit-standard-ubuntu:latest
ghcr.io/slalombuild/pe-toolkit-full-alpine:latest
ghcr.io/slalombuild/pe-toolkit-full-ubuntu:latest

(All images are listed here)

Or to use an image locally (assuming you already have docker setup), run:

docker pull ghcr.io/slalombuild/pe-toolkit-standard-ubuntu:latest

FAQ

What tools do the Standard and Full images contain?

Standard Full
terraform terraform
atmos atmos
curl curl
bash bash
jq jq
yq yq
figlet figlet
unzip unzip
zip zip
git git
shellcheck shellcheck
nano nano
tflint tflint
tfsec tfsec

terraform-docs
node and npm
python and pip
go

I'd like the image(s) to include x, can I add it?

Sure, go ahead and submit a PR. Some considerations when adding a tool -

  • Should it be in Standard and/or Full?
  • Tools should be added to all versions of the base OS. I.e. if it's added to full-alpine, it should also be added to full-ubuntu.
  • If the tool significantly increases the image size, is it something we want in our toolkit, or something we'd run in a pipeline using an official image for the tool?
  • Standard is intended to be lightweight, mainly used in pipelines, and Full is intended for development environments

I've made some changes and they don't work, how do I debug the problem?

  1. Attempt to build the problematic image. Change to the relevant folder containing a Dockerfile under images and run
    docker build -t test:latest .   
  2. View the output for any errors.
  3. If the container image builds successfully, start a shell in the container using
    docker run --rm -it --entrypoint /bin/bash test
    and perform further debugging steps.

Which versions of binaries do we use?

We use the latest version of each tool at the time of building of the image.

Which base OS do we use?

We offer two options (currently); Alpine (latest) and Ubuntu (latest).

Which architectures do we support?

amd64 and arm64. If there's an architecture you'd like an image for, please submit a PR.

Contributions

If you'd like a tool added to the images, a different base OS, or a different architecture, please submit a PR. For bugs/security issues, please create a new issue and follow the instructions. Thanks.
