Re: [che-dev] 1 CLI or 2 CLI?

[Tyler Jewell <tjewell@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The CLI is used in two modes:

1. "docker run eclipse/che offline" -> this is a special command that pulls and saves all images (utilities, core che images, and any stack images you choose) to your local drive. 

2. Admin can then move the TAR files to any location.

3. "docker run eclipse che start --offline" tells the CLI to only look for Docker images that are saved as TAR files on disk.

This allows people to perform an offline installation of Che itself.

Offline mode definitely makes sense for multi user Che. We provide it and it is used as part of codenvy.

That is weird. I would expect that multi user implies that the Che server is connected to a network. And if this network don't have access to the Internet there should be an internal Docker registry to pull the images. Otherwise managing the images can become quickly a nightmare. How to you provision the images in an "offline" swarm cluster?

 

The offline mode is built into the cli so there is not extra cost for it.

Ok cool so I don't see any reason why we shouldn't use the current CLI for multi-users Che too.
