history
Project history and usage
Source-to-Image, commonly `s2i`, is OpenShift's CLI and workflow for building reproducible container images by injecting application source into builder images rather than requiring every application repository to carry its own Dockerfile.
Project history
The GitHub repository was created in January 2014. Public releases show a 0.1 release in January 2015, a 1.0 release in June 2015, and continuing maintenance through the 1.x series.
The README frames S2I as both a toolkit and workflow. Its design centers on builder images with standard scripts such as `assemble`, `run`, optional `save-artifacts`, and optional `usage`, plus source-side files like `.s2iignore` and `.s2i/environment`.
Adoption history
S2I is tied to OpenShift's application-build model and has been packaged for Homebrew and Fedora/DNF according to the input package metadata. Its README documents installation via Go, Homebrew, downloadable releases, and platform-specific binaries.
How it is used
The canonical workflow is `s2i build <source location> <builder image> [tag]`, followed by running the produced container image. The CLI also includes commands such as `create`, `rebuild`, `generate`, `usage`, `version`, and `help`.
Why package nerds care
Package nerds care because S2I sits at the boundary between language packaging, container image construction, and platform policy. It encodes buildpacks-like conventions in simple executable scripts while still producing ordinary container images.
