Hey there! This is an awesome project. I've successfully created a deduped.img file following the CI/CD instructions.

I am now trying to use this .img file to run my Xcode build. So, here's what I'm running:

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
    -e NOPICKER=true \
    -e MASTER_PLIST_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/master/custom/config-nopicker-custom.plist \
    -e IMAGE_PATH=/home/arch/OSX-KVM/mac_hdd_ng.img \
    -e "OSX_COMMANDS=/bin/bash -c \"pwd && uname -a\"" \
    mycontainer

This results in a (qemu) command prompt, but I'm not sure what to do with that. I thought the OSX_COMMANDS would be run and output, but that doesn't seem to happen here. Do you have any recommendations on what my next steps should be?

Thanks again! Really appreciate the work on this!

-e "OSX_COMMANDS=/bin/bash -c \"pwd && uname -a\"" \

Is a demo command, you can change it to something else:

-e "OSX_COMMANDS=/bin/bash -c \"echo hello\""

The container will delete itself after running the commands, or you can remove that line

I think this is where I'm a bit confused. Here's what I just ran:

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
    -e NOPICKER=true \
    -e MASTER_PLIST_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/master/custom/config-nopicker-custom.plist \
    -e IMAGE_PATH=/home/arch/OSX-KVM/mac_hdd_ng.img \
    -e "OSX_COMMANDS=/bin/bash -c \"echo hello\"" \
    mycontainer

And here's the result:

It never terminates, and I never see "hello" logged. I feel like I'm so so close to having this working!

My container will only work in full auto with the OSX_COMMANDS if you make the user account arch and the password alpine.

Try that and you can use the full auto version, but you'll also need to build using the Dockerfile.auto

Okay I read through the Dockerfile.auto and I think I understand better now. In the above example, OSX_COMMANDS isn't working because I'm building my Docker image from :naked. Thanks for that tip!

FROM sickcodes/docker-osx:naked
USER arch
COPY --chown=arch ./deduped /image/mac_hdd_ng.img

So, now I'm trying a different approach where I run my docker-osx container by itself and then have my CI tasks SSH into that container to run various scripts. Locally, I am testing out SSH first by running this:

docker run -it \
  --device /dev/kvm \
  -p 50922:10022 \
  -e GENERATE_UNIQUE=true \
  -e NOPICKER=true \
  -e IMAGE_PATH=/image/mac_hdd_ng.img \
  mydockerosximage

And then after that starts up, outside of the container I can run:

sshpass -pmypassword ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no myuser@127.0.0.1 -p 50922 'uname -a'

And that works!

I can also run:

docker exec [MY_CONTAINER_ID] sshpass -pmypassword ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no myuser@127.0.0.1 -p 10022 'uname -a'

This also works 😄

So next I configured my Kubernetes-based CI system to use a readinessProbe to determine whether macOS is ready:

readinessProbe:
  exec:
    command: ["sshpass", "-pmypassword", "ssh", "-o", "StrictHostKeyChecking=no", "myuser@127.0.0.1", "-p", "10022", "'uname -a'"]

I also configured all the same environment variables:

env:
  - name: NOPICKER
    value: 'true'
  - name: GENERATE_UNIQUE
    value: 'true'
  - name: IMAGE_PATH
    value: '/image/mac_hdd_ng.img'

As expected, the probe fails until macOS is ready. It sends this error:

Readiness probe failed: ssh: connect to host 127.0.0.1 port 10022: Connection refused

But ultimately, the probe starts returning a different error:

Readiness probe failed: kex_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer Connection reset by 127.0.0.1 port 10022

And that's where I'm currently stuck! This may be a configuration mistake in my CI system, but I'm not sure right now. Any ideas are welcome :)

Oh one more potentially useful clue, the logs for the docker-osx container end like this:

@Eslam-mohammed-anwar I did eventually figure out the issue here. The root cause is that the readiness probe that I wrote is no good.
