HashiCorp Base Tool

This tool is intended to be built, signed, and checked in to the various HashiCorp official Docker image repositories. It's used to bootstrap the base images by providing useful functions that would otherwise be hard to perform given the pure Dockerfile nature of official builds, and the limited set of tools available in BusyBox.

Currently, this only knows how to fetch and verify HashiCorp releases, which require SSL which isn't supported by the wget included with BusyBox. It's written as a standard CLI app, though, so we may add more commands later.

We've also included a set of root certs required to fetch a release and contact other APIs on hashicorp.com, such as Checkpoint. These should also be extracted into your image and stored at /system/etc/security/cacerts so that the Go TLS library will pick them up automatically.

Building

Docker is required for building since the Go compiling happens in a container.

./build.sh

You can upload this release using hc-releases -upload pkg/
