Description
Expected Behavior
Use the creport.json generated from the slim profile command as an input for the slim build. Keep only the file paths from the creport.json file
Actual Behavior
creport.json file is not picked up from the arguments
Steps to Reproduce the Problem
- Perform image profiling using the slim profile command and generate artifacts in a local folder.
Command:slim profile --target <target_image> --env-file <env_file_path> --copy-meta-artifacts profile_artifacts - Number of file_paths in
profile_artifacts/creport.jsonfile =44 - Use the build command with the required arguments to build a slim image.
Command:slim build --image <target_image> --tag <slim_tag> --include-paths-creport-file profile_artifacts/creport.json --http-probe-off=true --copy-meta-artifacts build_artifacts --continue-after 5 --env-file <env_file> - Number of file_paths in
profile_artifacts/creport.jsonfile =5503 - size.original='961 MB' size.optimized='458 MB'
- Expected slim image size: < 20 MB can be achieved with http-probe enabled. However, as http probing was already done during profiling, I don't want to redo it.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the documented slim profile and slim build commands with profile_artifacts/creport.json, then inspect how --include-paths-creport-file is handled by the build command. Compare the paths consumed with those in the generated report; done means the report's file paths are used without repeating HTTP probing.
