We are getting very close to a beta release. The requirements for this release are:
- Support for language package managers.
- Ability to run on Mac and Windows using Docker.
Our goal is to meet these requirements by the end of the year
- We will work towards enabling language package managers like
pip
,npm
andgem
including support for golang which will be available in future releases slated for this year. - We will try to move away from using overlayfs to "debug" container images. This will allow us to move away from using a volume mount to a host linux system to make Tern work on Windows and Mac. However, this will not help towards running Tern in an unprivileged container (at least in the default environment).
We will also continue to work on the following:
- We will continue to support the SPDX format for container images. To that end, we will make changes to update the format of the document as the spec evolves.
- We will be working with the Conan project to integrate some of the functionality needed by their use cases.
- As usual, we will continue to work on our technical debt and bug fixes.
This timetable is based on time, resources and feedback from you and will change accordingly.
