About:
Source-to-Image (s2i) is a tool for building Docker container images from source code. It operates by injecting source code into a base Docker image and executing a build process within the container. This approach facilitates a consistent and repeatable build workflow for creating deployable application artifacts.
Key Features:
  • Incremental builds to reuse existing image layers
  • Support for multiple build strategies including Docker and custom scripts
  • Extensible architecture via builder images
  • CLI tool for easy integration into CI/CD pipelines
Use Cases:
  • Standardizing container image builds across development teams
  • Integrating container builds into automated CI/CD workflows
  • Migrating legacy applications to container platforms
Alternatives:
  • Docker Build – Docker Build uses Dockerfiles for imperative builds, while s2i uses a more opinionated, source-centric workflow.
  • Buildpacks – Buildpacks offer a similar source-to-image capability but often focus on auto-detection of build environments.
