🌌 Why use Heighliner?

Heighliner photo

We built Heighliner to streamline the management and building of production-grade container images for blockchain node software, Cosmos and beyond.

🌌🌌 Who benefits from Heighliner?

Heighliner container images are useful for anyone who's responsible for infrastructure deployments like

🌌🌌🌌 What does Heighliner do?

Heighliner images are minimally constructed from scratch images, packaging only the chain binary and a useful reduced set of busybox utilities.

This repository has a CI/CD pipeline to automatically build images when new git tags are detected on the chain repos in chains.yaml. These images are hosted as packages in the Github Container Registry (ghcr) here

🌌🌌🌌🌌 How do I use Heighliner?

Add a New Chain

To add a chain to the heighliner built-in configuration and have your chain images available on our repository's ghcr, submit a PR adding it to chains.yaml so it will be included in the automatic builds.

For further instructions see: addChain.md

Add Heighliner Images to your Chain Repo

To publish heighliner images on your chain repository and/or incorporate heighliner images into your chain repo's CI/CD flow, see heighliner-build-action

Build Your Own

If you would like to build the images yourself, heighliner is a CLI tool to help you do so. Download the latest release, or build it yourself with:

go build

Example: build the docker image for gaia v6.0.0:

heighliner build --chain gaia --git-ref v6.0.0

Docker image heighliner/gaia:v6.0.0 will now be available in your local docker images

Example: Cosmos SDK chain development cycle, build a local repository

cd ~/gaia-fork
heighliner build -c gaia --local

Docker image gaia:local will be built and stored in your local docker images.

Example: Build from a Github fork

cd ~/gaia-fork
heighliner build -c gaia -o p2p-org -g working_branch -t image_tag

Heighliner will build the working_branch branch from the p2p-org/gaia github organization/repository. Docker image gaia:image_tag will be stored in your local docker images.

Example: build with all overrides.

Heighliner can build without a chain present in chains.yaml if the necessary flags are provided.

heighliner build -c somegaia -o somefork --repo gaia --dockerfile cosmos --build-target "make install" --build-env "LEDGER_ENABLED=false BUILD_TAGS=muslc" --binaries "/go/bin/gaiad" -g v8.0.0 -t v8.0.0-somefork

Docker image somegaia:v8.0.0-somefork will be built and stored in your local docker images.

Example: build and push the gaia v6.0.0 docker image to ghcr:

# docker login ...
heighliner build -r ghcr.io/p2p-org/cosmos-heighliner -c gaia -g v6.0.0

Docker image ghcr.io/p2p-org/cosmos-heighliner/gaia:v6.0.0 will be built and pushed to ghcr.io

Example: build and push last n releases of osmosis chain

# docker login ...
heighliner build -r ghcr.io/p2p-org/cosmos-heighliner -c osmosis -n 3

heighliner will fetch the last 3 osmosis release tags from github, build docker images, and push them, e.g.:

  • ghcr.io/p2p-org/cosmos-heighliner/osmosis:v6.1.0
  • ghcr.io/p2p-org/cosmos-heighliner/osmosis:v6.0.0
  • ghcr.io/p2p-org/cosmos-heighliner/osmosis:v5.0.0

Example: build and push last n releases of all chains

This will make a request to each chain's Github repository to fetch all recent releases. Github rate-limits unauthenticated requests to 60 requests per hour. Authenticated requests have either 1000 (personal) or 15000 (enterprise) per hour. To add Github API authentication, set the GH_USER and GH_PAT environment variables with your Github username and Github Personal Access Token (PAT), respectively.

# docker login ...
export GH_USER=github_username GH_PAT=github_personal_access_token
heighliner build -r ghcr.io/p2p-org/cosmos-heighliner -n 3

heighliner will fetch the last 3 release tags from github for all chains in chains.yaml, build docker images, and push them.

🌌🌌🌌🌌🌌 Extras

Cross compiling

Depends on docker buildkit. Requires buildkitd server to be running. Pass -b flag to use buildkit.

The build will look for the local buildkit unix socket by default. Change address with --buildkit-addr flag.

Customize the platform(s) to be built with the --platform flag.

Example: build x64 and arm64 docker images for gaia v7.0.1:

heighliner build -b -c gaia -g v7.0.1

Docker images for heighliner/gaia:v7.0.1 will now be available in your local docker. The manifest for the tag will contain both amd64 and arm64 images.

Example: Use custom buildkit server, build x64 and arm64 docker images for gaia v7.0.1, and push:

heighliner build -b --buildkit-addr tcp://192.168.1.5:8125 -c gaia -g v7.0.1 -r ghcr.io/p2p-org/cosmos-heighliner

Docker images for heighliner/gaia:v7.0.1 will be built on the remote buildkit server and then pushed to the container repository. The manifest for the tag will contain both amd64 and arm64 images.
