Create version of container with fixed versioning

[gknapp1]

Currently, the Docker ubuntu:dev container pulls the main/,master branches of Myna, AdditiveFOAM, ExaCA, and 3DThesis. This allows for accessing the most recent features of each code, but also means that some functionality of the Docker container may break unexpectedly (for example, see #3).

Having a container version that builds specific commits of the various codes would provide a stable option. This would only have to be built once and would not require weekly builds. We could update the stable container versioning periodically.

Trying out versions for v1 of the stable versioning:

• Myna: < 93909cc (93909cc had an error in the ExaCA app, not sure how much farther back we need to go)
• AdditiveFOAM: spack install additivefoam@1.0.0
• ExaCA: spack install exaca@2.0.0
• 3DThesis: 2139b41 (after 3.0 release, includes melt pool geometry feature but does not have Stork, MPI, or later developments from Fall 2024)

Tested examples:

• cluster_solidification
• melt_pool_geometry_part
• microstructure_region
• microstructure_region_slice
• openfoam_meshing
• openfoam_meshing_script
• rve_part_center
• solidification_part
• solidification_part_hdf5
• solidification_region_reduced
• solidification_region_stl
• temperature_part

I did that in the previous version: https://github.com/ExascaleAM/Workflows (although the method of doing so in the docker script was manual)

Thanks for the example! I think we would want the stable build to be manual like you have it there.

Quick update:

• There was an error in the exaca/microstructure_region app that went unchecked for most of last fall and causes myna run to throw an error when executing the app.
• The exaca/microstructure_region_slice app was functional when introduced, but the template only works with ExaCA 2.0.1 and later, which is not on spack
• Recent changes to Myna fix the ExaCA app issue, but require AdditiveFOAM's main branch (not fixed version)

I don't think that there is actually a commit of Myna that is fully functional with available spack package versions for ExaCA and AdditiveFOAM. So, closing this issue is on hold until the next version of AdditiveFOAM is released and the latest versions for the spack packages are updated.

That said, the additivefoam@main spack package should be functional again after our updates recently being merged to spack/develop, so the dev Docker build should work on next build (will test).

1. I would suggest latest to match the ubuntu naming for using the most recent releases (and not maintaining a huge number of packages). Not totally opposed to more conservative releases here though
2. I'll put in an exaca spack PR
3. Would an additivefoam bugfix release be helpful?
