Docker design conceptv0.1.png

Purpose

This page holds a conceptual design for Docker on SME Server. See more details on Docker here


Overview

Design principles

  • This design concept only addresses demonized containers and not interactive containers.
  • This design only addresses containers that hold application(s) for end users. Not for sys admins.
  • Transparent 'Click to run' user experience
  • No integration with Server Manager (Yet).
  • Full integration in SME Sever templating system and SME Server db databases
  • Pre-build images are not available yet
  • No build-in pre-checks regarding starting a container and server capacity
  • The design is intended for a single SME Server host, not a cluster or a farm.
  • May not effect or compromise default SME Server functionality, stability and security


Options

This document does not address any integration with Server Manager. All input is to be considered a flat file or manual db entries.

A. Container Options

Start

The docker client can be invoked with various flags and arguments. These flags and arguments are past to the docker daemon to construct the docker container and run it. To see all docker client command execute: 

docker

To see all available arguments, execute 

docker -h


B. Docker options

  • TBA

C. Image options

  • Linked containers


SME Databases

Container options

Syntax: 

db docker_containers [name]

Key: 

docker_containers [name]=service

Types:

status enabled / disabled
TCPPort n , n
UDPPort n , n
PortMapping native / custom
PortMappingPorts n:n , n:n
access private / public
network bridge / host
MountPath path , path
Interlinked [alias]
InterLinkPriority n
MaxMemory n
SubDomain enabled / disabled
SubDomainName name
WebAlias name
DataMount container / host
DataMountWrite yes / no
DataMountPath path


Image options

Syntax: 

db docker_images

Key: 

docker_images [name]=service


SME Template/fragments

  • TBA


Start/Stop events

  • Manual on console
  • Time based by cron
  • Triggered by an event

Create a SME docker Base image

WIP --Stephdl (talk) 15:56, 15 September 2014 (MDT)

Install docker to your sme, be aware that you have to do it on a 64 bit

Create your repository file and save it to /root/repo_file

tar --numeric-owner -c -C "$target" . | docker import - $name:$version
docker run -i -t $name:$version echo success
rm -rf "$target"

give the permissions to the file 

chmod u+x /root/docker_images

and launch the script 

/root/docker_images [name_of_your_image]


for example to launch your image 

docker run -i -t  sme9_real:6.5 bash

see 

docker images

after that you have an image but we need to reconfigure it
