Bees docker

Description

Docker image build recipe for bees.

Since bees only has installable packages for Arch and Gentoo, I created a very simple Dockerfile to be distro independent for my btrfs deduplication needs.

The container is nothing but a simple wrapper around the beesd script provided by bees.

Usage

Clone this repository and cd into it

git clone https://github.com/theCalcaholic/bees-docker
cd bees-docker

Build the docker container
```
docker build -t beesd .
```

Create a config file for beesd

sudo mkdir -p /etc/bees
sudo wget -O /etc/bees/my-disk.conf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Zygo/bees/master/scripts/beesd.conf.sample
# then edit at least the UUID in /etc/bees/my-disk.conf

Run the docker container in privileged mode

docker run --rm --privileged -v /dev/disk:/dev/disk -v /etc/bees:/etc/bees beesd <uuid-of-your-btrfs-root-volume>
