Bhojpur ISO - Package Manager

The Bhojpur ISO features is a multi-platform Package Manager based off from Containers - it uses Docker (and others) to build packages. It can also version entire rootfs and enables delivery of OTA-alike updates, making it a perfect fit for the Edge Computing and IoT/M2M embedded devices.

It offers a simple specifications file format in YAML notation to define both packages and rootfs. Based on containers, it can be also used to build stages for Linux from scratch installations and it can build and track updates for those systems.

Key Features

• Bhojpur ISO can reuse Gentoo's portage tree hierarchy, and it is heavily inspired from it.
• It builds from containers, but installs, uninstalls and perform upgrades on machines
• Installer doesn't depend on anything ( 0 dep installer !), statically built
• You can install it aside also with your current distro package manager, and start building and distributing your packages
• Support for packages as "layers"
• It uses SAT solving techniques to solve the deptree
• Support for collections and templated package definitions
• Can be extended with Plugins and Extensions
• Can build packages in Kubernetes (experimental)
• Uses containerd/go-containerregistry to manipulate images - works also daemonless with the img backend
