Domino container custom repositories

Last month I helped customer moving their physical partitioned servers to container based servers.
Instead of having multiple partitions, we they liked my idea of having multiple containers per Linux host instead on new virtual servers.
Building behind a proxy
Building in a corporate environment has a couple of additional challenges.
It usually starts with the requirement for a proxy to have internet access to pull images and updates--> https://opensource.hcltechsw.com/domino-container/howto_proxy/
Custom Linux repositories
But in larger environments a local repository mirror is used. Even some providers like Hetzner are providing local repositories for their customers.
Usually this is implemented by creating an own corporate image, your Domino images is based on.
For Ubuntu 24.04 and Debian 12 the project now contains an out of the box way to specify custom repositories: --> https://opensource.hcltechsw.com/domino-container/reference_custom_mirror/
For Hetzner I added custom repository mirror examples, ready to use when you servers are hosted on Hetzner.
I started to put all the information into the GitHub repository instead of blogging all the details separately.
If you have questions you can raise issues in the project. I thought about enabling discussions in the project.
