docker社区的geodata/gdal镜像dockerfile分析

对应从事遥感与地理信息的同仁来说，gdal应该是所有工具中使用频度最高的库了，那么在docker中使用gdal时，面临的第一步就是构建gdal基础镜像，社区中引用最多的就是geodata提供的gdal基础镜像包，封装的gdal最新版本是2.3.0dev。

geodata/gdal的docker在github上的地址如下：

https://github.com/geo-data/gdal-docker

根据该库的提交记录，其生成gdal镜像的方法经历了多次更新：

1 最初按照gdal官网步骤自行编译；

2 基于makefile采用make系统编译；

3 基于gdal的travel ci 脚本进行编译。

dockerfile内容如下：

##
# geodata/gdal
#
# This creates an Ubuntu derived base image that installs the latest GDAL
# subversion checkout compiled with a broad range of drivers.  The build process
# is based on that defined in
# <https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/trunk/.travis.yml>
#
 
# Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahyr
FROM ubuntu:trusty
 
MAINTAINER Homme Zwaagstra <hrz@geodata.soton.ac.uk>
 
# Install the application.
ADD . /usr/local/src/gdal-docker/
RUN /usr/local/src/gdal-docker/build.sh
 
# Externally accessible data is by default put in /data
WORKDIR /data
VOLUME ["/data"]
 
# Output version and capabilities by default.
CMD gdalinfo --version && gdalinfo --formats && ogrinfo --formats

基于ubuntu:trusty基础镜像，复制镜像构建相关内容到镜像的/usr/local/src/gdal-docker目录，利用build.sh脚本执行构建操作。

build.sh内容如下：

#!/bin/sh
 
##
# Install GDAL from within a docker container
#
# This script is designed to be run from within a docker container in order to
# install GDAL. It delegates to `before_install.sh` and `install.sh` which are
# patched from the Travis CI configuration in the GDAL repository.
#
 
set -e
 
DIR=$(dirname "$(readlink -f "$")")
GDAL_VERSION=$(cat ${DIR}/gdal-checkout.txt)
 
export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
 
# Set the locale. Required for subversion to work on the repository.
update-locale LANG="C.UTF-8"
dpkg-reconfigure locales
. /etc/default/locale
export LANG
 
# Instell prerequisites.
apt-get update -y
apt-get install -y \
        software-properties-common \
        wget \
        unzip \
        subversion \
        ccache \
        clang-3.5 \
        patch \
        python-dev \
        ant
 
# Everything happens under here.
cd /tmp
 
# Get GDAL.
svn checkout --quiet "http://svn.osgeo.org/gdal/${GDAL_VERSION}/" /tmp/gdal/
 
# Install GDAL.
cd /tmp/gdal
 
# Apply our build patches.
patch ./gdal/ci/travis/trusty_clang/before_install.sh ${DIR}/before_install.sh.patch
patch ./gdal/ci/travis/trusty_clang/install.sh ${DIR}/install.sh.patch
 
# Do the build.
. ./gdal/ci/travis/trusty_clang/before_install.sh
. ./gdal/ci/travis/trusty_clang/install.sh
 
# Clean up.
apt-get autoremove -y
apt-get clean
rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/* /tmp/* /var/tmp/*

设置GDAL_VERSION（从gdal-checkout.txt读取，为trunk，表示从svn主干分支下载源代码），下载gdal源代码到/tmp/gdal目录，下载编译器clang和python环境，对gdal的trusty_clang的travis安装脚本打补丁（通过修改后调用diff工具生成patch）,安装gdal，清理临时文件。
