How can i add packages to alpine netboot - qemu

I have download Alpine netboot distribution from this URL:
https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.16/releases/x86/alpine-netboot-3.16.1-x86.tar.gz
I have run a virtual machine with QEMU this way:
qemu-system-i386 -m 256 -kernel boot/vmlinuz-lts -initrd boot/initramfs-lts -append "console=ttyS0 ip=dhcp alpine_repo=http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/"
With this command, a virtual machine is created and 22 apk pacakges are installed.
I am able to install additionnal apk packages, but I have to do it by hand (apk add command).
How can I script packages installation in QEMU command line ?
Please note: I can replace http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/ by a local mirror. So, I can also change files on the repository.

Google-chrome on AWS Lambda

It is possible to run Google-chrome not Chromium with puppeteer in AWS Lambda with container?
Script stuck when I create new page in browser:

I am not 100% DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is necessary. I am also not 100% sure whether explicitly naming all these packages are necessary, I stole everything from a dozen different places, likely the chrome rpm will pull in what it needs, but I never used any RHEL based system so I am totally clueless. I know this works. Optimizations are welcome.
Here's the script:
#!/usr/bin/bash
# Download and install chrome

# Without -y it doesn't run because it needs to add dependencies.

You can verify it is working by starting it locally with docker run --mount type=tmpfs,destination=/tmp --read-only this simulates well the environment of AWS Lambda. Then you need to run su chrome -c 'xvfb-run chromedriver --allowed-ips=127.0.0.1'. I am using https://github.com/instaclick/php-webdriver/ which is a very thin PHP client for W3C and Selenium 2 webdriver. I used this to test:
<?php
namespace WebDriver;
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
#mkdir('/tmp/chrome');
chmod('/tmp/chrome', 0777);
$wd_host = 'http://localhost:9515';
$web_driver = new WebDriver($wd_host);
$session = $web_driver->session('chrome', [['goog:chromeOptions' => ['args' => [
'--no-sandbox',
'--user-data-dir=/tmp/chrome'
]]]]);
$session->open('https://google.com');

Error installing RMySQL to run in Docker on Mac OS X

I am trying to run MySQL in an R script running inside a Docker (actually Rocker) container, but am getting an error on the “install_packages(…” step. The only solution I found that was somewhat similar was specific to running RedHat Linux (I am running Mac OS X 10.15) and the solution included pointing to several directories that I do not have. Running under RStudio or from the command line, RMySQL loads without a problem.
Dockerfile:
FROM rocker/r-ver:latest
RUN mkdir /home/analysis
COPY install_packages.R /home/analysis/install_packages.R
COPY script_basic.R /home/analysis/script_basic.R
RUN Rscript /home/analysis/install_packages.R
CMD Rscript /home/analysis/script_basic.R
R files:
script_basic.R
library( RMySQL )
install_packages.R
install_packages(“RMySQL”)
Commands and responses:
$ docker build -t myapp .
…
Successfully tagged myapp:latest
$ docker run -it --rm myapp
Loading required package: DBI
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘RMySQL’ in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...):
unable to load shared object '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/RMySQL/libs/RMySQL.so':
libmysqlclient.so.21: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Execution halted
$
I believe that rocker/r-dev does not include the libraries you need to get this to run. Untested, but try something like this.
Dockerfile
FROM rocker/r-ver:latest
RUN mkdir /home/analysis
RUN apt-get update \
&& apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends libmariadbclient-dev
COPY install_packages.R /home/analysis/install_packages.R
COPY script_basic.R /home/analysis/script_basic.R
RUN Rscript /home/analysis/install_packages.R
CMD Rscript /home/analysis/script_basic.R
You can find the need for certain libraries on https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RMySQL/index.html, as
SystemRequirements: libmariadb-client-dev | libmariadb-client-lgpl-dev | libmysqlclient-dev (deb), mariadb-devel (rpm), mariadb | mysql-connector-c (brew), mysql56_dev (csw)
and a note on how to install them in RMySQL's github README.md's Installation section.
(The CRAN page references libmysqlclient-dev, but the github page suggests "the mariadb implementation is much better". I don't know the premise of the statement, just explaining why I suggested one and CRAN listed another.)

How to deploy a war file into tomcat server installed in Google Compute Engine instance?

I have created a Linux VM instance in Google Compute Engine. I installed the JDK and Tomcat with the following commands using SSH.
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
sudo apt-get install tomcat8
I have a war file in my local machine. How can I move the war file from local machine to Compute Engine VM and run the war on the Tomcat server ?
I would recommend using Storage Buckets to store files. This way you can copy the same files to different VMs.
To use google storage from command line, first you would need to install gsutil.
To copy from your local machine to a bucket:
gsutil cp *.txt gs://my-bucket
To copy from a bucket to a VM, connect to your VM and run:
gsutil cp gs://my-bucket/*.txt .
More info about cp with gsutil on this link.

Installation Requirements for mysql with DBIish on rakudo-star docker image

I was creating an own docker image based on the latest rakudo-star docker image. I wanted to use DBIish to connect to a mysql database. Unfortunately I am not able to get the DBDish::mysql to work.
I've installed default-libmysqlclient-dev as you can see in
# find / -name 'libmysqlclient*.so'
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmysqlclient_r.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmysqlclient.so
The error i am facing is:
# perl6 -Ilib -e 'use DBDish::mysql; DBDish::mysql.connect()'
Cannot locate native library 'mysqlclient': mysqlclient: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Short answer: you need the package libmysqlclient20 (I added the documentation request to a similar DBIish issue). Debian 9 (stable at the moment) uses and older version than Ubuntu 18.04 (stable at the moment) and Debian Unstable. It also refers to mariadb instead of mysql. Pick libmariadbclient18 on images based on Debian Stable and create a link with the mysql name (see below).
On Debian Testing/Unstable and recent derivatives:
$ sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient20
$ dpkg -L libmysqlclient20

In order to illustrate this, I created an Ubuntu 18.04 container for the occasion*:
docker run -ti --rm --entrypoint=bash rakudo/ubuntu-amd64-18.04
And the abbreviated commands and output:
# apt-get install -y libmysqlclient20 build-essential
# zef install DBIish
# perl6 -e 'use DBDish::mysql; DBDish::mysql.connect()'
Cannot look up attributes in a DBDish::mysql type object
[...]
The error is because I didn't pass the correct parameters for connect as I didn't have a db running. The important thing is that no .so file is missing.
*: I uploaded it to the Docker Hub, a normal run will put you right in the REPL:
$ docker run -ti --rm rakudo/ubuntu-amd64-18.04
To exit type 'exit' or '^D'

(I didn't use the Star image when debugging, but it does not matter because this is a more generic problem.)

Unable to run startup script when creating instance on Google Cloud Platform

I have a simple startup script which looks like so:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y ruby-full ruby-bundler build-essential
And create VM instance on GCP like so:
$ gcloud compute instances create test-app --boot-disk-size=10GB --image-family ubuntu-1604-lts --image-project=ubuntu-os-cloud --machine-type=g1-small --zone europe-west1-b --tags test-server --restart-on-failure --metadata-from-file startup-script=startup.sh
My startup.sh is executable. I set its rights like so:
$ chmod +x startup.sh
When however I enter the shell of my newly created instance and check bundler:
test-app:~$ bundle -v
I get these messages:
The program 'bundle' is currently not installed...
So, what is wrong with that and how can I fix it? PS. If I run all my commands just from inside the instance shell, it's all ok, so there is some problem with using startup script on GCP.
I tested with your use case, But the bundle package was installed without making any changes.
Output:
bundle -v
Bundler version 1.11.2
You can check VM serial console log output to verify if start-up script ran. Check the VM instance to verify if the package is installed using the commands below:
sudo apt list --installed | grep -i bundle
sudo egrep bundle /var/log/dpkg.log
In addition, check the gem list bundle
