Aws-codebuild-docker-images: Support CodeBuild local on Windows

[ssippe]

Hi,

Is it possible to run aws/codebuild/windows-base locally? I can't find any documentation on it.

I would be helpful to know what tools are installed on what paths to aid in creating a working buildspec.yml.

Cheers

@ssippe - Unfortunately, no. CodeBuild local is only supported on Linux_x86 today. We also don't have the Windows Dockerfile available on this GitHub repo yet.

It would be really helpful if I could just look at the dockerfile to figure
out what resources are available. Can you show that?

I'm not sure I can use CodeBuild for building my .net framework application. If the following improvements were made, it would work fine.

Suggested Improvements:

• make the .net framework curated docker images are available
• make the .net framework curated docker files available so you could figure out how the environment is configured.
• Update the windows host version from the current 10.0.14393 so if you want to run your own docker image, you can the supported microsoft SDK containers. Anything that runs on 10.0.14393 is EOL.
• Make codebuild local is unavailable

Cheers

I would also love to have this feature.

Anything to make it easier to build legacy .Net Framework apps would be appreciated! I am trying to migrate some builds to AWS codebuild and it would help to know what is available in the windows images.

Need this as well

This would REALLY be a time saver. Having instructions on how to setup docker to access the registry where the CodeBuild images are hosted would be great (I assume its just in a private AWS ECR registry at the moment). As @ssippe mentioned, even then Dockerfile would be helpful to understand what is included in the image.

We would also benefit from having access to the windows code build image or Dockerfile, as we would like to extend the image to contain additional required build resources.

I also agree with this, having more insight into what's in the codebuild image or docker file would be good.
