Automatic download from My HCLSoftware Portal (MHS)

The container image build supports automatic downloads leveraging the Domino Download Script which is part of the OpenSource Nash!Com Start Script project.

Once installed the build.sh script automatically detects the domdownload script to download missing software before starting the build process. This new option leverages the download API provided by MHS.

Manual download from My HCLSoftware Portal

  1. Log into the My HCLSoftware Portal with your account
  2. Copy the download URL with a right click action in your browser
  3. If not direct download is possible, transfer the manually downloaded file to the software folder
  4. In case the build machine has direct access to the internet, Curl can be used to directly from this pre-authenticated temporary download link.

Additional notes

  • Specify the exact file name via -o option
  • Add single quotes around the download URL, because it contains bash specific special chars
  • The download URL will be valid for 60 minutes
  • Running the build.sh domino once the software is downloaded, will start the build process launching a NGINX software container to provide a build process web-kit download
  • You can use the -checkonly option to only check the software
  • The build process verifies the SHA256 download hash. There is no need to verify it manually
  • But there is also a -verifyonly option available to verify the software download

Direct download from remote server

In case you have all the install packages located on a central server, you can point build process directly to the download location.
The option DOWNLOAD_FROM=https://mylocalsoftware.com can be configured in build configuration.
