How to create a dind docker image with azure-cli on Alpine linux?


I am trying to install the azure-cli in the dind:latest image based on alpine.

For context, I want to use it to connect to AKS and deploy an app to Kubernetes via Gitlab.

In my gitlab-ci.yml file I start with this

image: docker:latest
services:
  - docker:dind

and then I try to install the azure-cli

deploy-to-k8s--dev: # k8s namespace "dev"
  stage: deploy-to-k8s
#  image: microsoft/azure-cli
  script:
    # I need the azure cli in the dind:latest container
    # so install bash,curl and finally the cli
    - apk update
    - apk upgrade
    - apk add bash
    - apk add --no-cache curl

    - curl -L https://aka.ms/InstallAzureCli | bash
    - az

and I get the following error

$ curl -L https://aka.ms/InstallAzureCli | bash

mktemp: Invalid argument
ERROR: Job failed: error executing remote command: command terminated with non-zero exit code: Error executing in Docker Container: 1

It is the first time that I try to work with Alpine Linux and I have no idea how it is built and what tools it uses...

Has anyone any suggestion?

EDIT

based on the accepted answer this is the final code that works

deploy-to-k8s--dev: # k8s namespace "dev"
  stage: deploy-to-k8s
  script:
    # I need the azure cli in the dind:latest container
    # so install bash,curl and finally the cli
    - apk update
    - apk upgrade
    - apk add bash make py-pip
    - apk add --virtual=build gcc libffi-dev musl-dev openssl-dev python2-dev
    - pip install azure-cli
    - apk del --purge build
    - az -h

Solution

  • This helped me in one of my alpine based image

    apk update
    apk add bash py-pip
    apk add --virtual=build gcc libffi-dev musl-dev openssl-dev python- dev
    pip install azure-cli
    apk del --purge build
