Description Steve Barcomb 2022-11-08 20:59:01 UTC

RFE: Image Builder should have the ability for users to select compsgroups.  Today, customers would be required to cherry pick a package that would install what they want and have dependency resolution sort it out.  i.e. if a customer wanted "server with gui" they would have to select the service packages they want, know to pick some "gnome" package etc.

Hi Steve, do you mean cockpit-composer UI, or TOML blueprints?

In toml blueprints, it's already supported using the following syntax:


[[packages]]
name = "@server with gui"

@elpereir I don't believe this is documented, I think we might want to add this.

Comment 4 Steve Barcomb 2022-11-09 12:59:15 UTC

Hey Ondřej,
Thank you for the reply, I did not know this functionality existed with the blueprints.  This is still missing from cockpit-composer, correct?  Should I change the component?

I've made a clone for it: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2142507 Thanks for the idea. :)

We updated the RHEL 8 documentation (might not be live yet) that we support the comps group in composer-cli. Therefore, I will close this bug. If you want to follow the clone for cockpit-composer, it's there: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2142507
