The use of networks in the build process means that Podman cannot be used in rootless mode. This commit changes the build to use standard podman/docker build context. This makes the build simpler, but does introduce a pause at the beginning of the build, while the context is uploaded. This pause is reduced by dynamically creating the .dockerignore file, to prevent unnecessary large files from being uploaded.

Building a container image
Prerequisites
You need to have the following tools installed:
If you are working in the Windows Subsystem for Linux, follow this guide by Microsoft to set up Docker first.
Building a production image
From MQ 9.2.X, the MQ container adds support for MQ Long Term Support (LTS) production licensed releases.
Building MQ 9.3 Long Term Support (LTS) and Continuous Delivery (CD)
Note: MQ 9.3 is the latest MQ version with MQ Long Term Support (LTS), as well as being the latest Continuous Delivery (CD) version.
The procedure below is for building the 9.3 release, on amd64, ppc64le and s390x architectures.
- Create a
downloadsdirectory in the root of this repository - Download MQ from IBM Passport Advantage. Identify the correct 'Long Term Support Release for Containers' eImage part number for your architecture from the 9.3.0 LTS tab at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/downloading-ibm-mq-930
- Ensure the
tar.gzfile is in thedownloadsdirectory - Run
make build-advancedserver
If you have an MQ archive file with a different file name, you can specify a particular file (which must be in the downloads directory). You should also specify the MQ version, so that the resulting image is tagged correctly, for example:
MQ_ARCHIVE=mq-1.2.3.4.tar.gz MQ_VERSION=1.2.3.4 make build-advancedserver
Building previous MQ Long Term Support (LTS)
Note: MQ 9.3 is the latest MQ version with MQ Long Term Support (LTS), as well as being the latest Continuous Delivery (CD) version. Therefore, to build build 9.3.0.X, follow the instructions above for MQ 9.3.
However, if you wish to build the previous MQ LTS, use the instructions in the v9.2.0.x-eus branch.
Building a developer image
Run make build-devserver, which will download the latest version of MQ Advanced for Developers from IBM developerWorks. This is currently only available on the amd64 architecture.
You can use the environment variable MQ_ARCHIVE_DEV to specify an alternative local file to install from (which must be in the downloads directory).
Installed components
This image includes the core MQ server, Java, language packs, GSKit, and web server. This is configured in the mq-redux build stage in Dockerfile-server.
