Bocker

Docker implemented in 100 lines of bash.

Prerequisites

The following packages are needed to run bocker.

  • btrfs-progs
  • iproute2
  • iptables
  • util-linux >= 2.25.2

Because most distributions do not ship a new enough version of util-linux you will probably need grab the sources from here and compile it yourself.

Additionally your system will need to be configured with the following.

  • A btrfs filesystem mounted under /var/bocker
  • A network bridge called bridge0 and an IP of 10.0.0.1/24
  • IP forwarding enabled in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
  • A firewall routing traffic from bridge0 to a physical interface.
  • A base-image which contains the filesystem to seed your container with.

For ease of use a Vagrantfile is included which will build the needed environment.

Even if you meet the above prerequisites you probably still want to run bocker in a virtual machine. Bocker runs as root and among other things needs to make changes to your network interfaces, routing table, and firewall rules. I can make no guarantees that it wont trash your system.

Example Usage

$ bocker init base-image/

$ bocker run img_84632 which wget
which: no wget in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)
