Only Build The Specific Executable In Dockerfile

Why?

[MahdiBM]

@gwynne why build stuff that won't be needed anyway?

[gwynne]

I feel like this could result in tripping people up in a non-obvious way.

[gwynne]

Not to mention there's nothing else to build in the template to begin with.

[MahdiBM]

It's not like Swift's build system is fast and users won't need this.

I've been using --product in a lot of places for building, it doesn't really mess anything up as long as you're not counting on it building everything (excluding test targets) (which the Dockerfile doesn't)

[MahdiBM]

@gwynne should investigate adding some kind of CI for the Dockerfile?

[gwynne]

It also adds another place where users need to change the name App if they change their executable name.

[gwynne]

(Granted, it is possible to set up the Dockerfile in such a way that the name is not quite so hardcoded, but doing so complicates it so much as to make it unapproachable for editing.)

[MahdiBM]

@gwynne that's actually what i was going to change next

[0xTim]

Have to say I'm actually in favour of this

[gwynne]

🤷‍♀️
