# NAME
|
|
runc spec - create a new specification file
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
runc spec [command options] [arguments...]
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
The spec command creates the new specification file named "config.json" for
|
|
the bundle.
|
|
|
|
The spec generated is just a starter file. Editing of the spec is required to
|
|
achieve desired results. For example, the newly generated spec includes an args
|
|
parameter that is initially set to call the "sh" command when the container is
|
|
started. Calling "sh" may work for an ubuntu container or busybox, but will not
|
|
work for containers that do not include the "sh" program.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE:
|
|
To run docker's hello-world container one needs to set the args parameter
|
|
in the spec to call hello. This can be done using the sed command or a text
|
|
editor. The following commands create a bundle for hello-world, change the
|
|
default args parameter in the spec from "sh" to "/hello", then run the hello
|
|
command in a new hello-world container named container1:
|
|
|
|
mkdir hello
|
|
cd hello
|
|
docker pull hello-world
|
|
docker export $(docker create hello-world) > hello-world.tar
|
|
mkdir rootfs
|
|
tar -C rootfs -xf hello-world.tar
|
|
runc spec
|
|
sed -i 's;"sh";"/hello";' config.json
|
|
runc start container1
|
|
|
|
In the start command above, "container1" is the name for the instance of the
|
|
container that you are starting. The name you provide for the container instance
|
|
must be unique on your host.
|
|
|
|
When starting a container through runc, runc needs root privilege. If not
|
|
already running as root, you can use sudo to give runc root privilege. For
|
|
example: "sudo runc start container1" will give runc root privilege to start the
|
|
container on your host.
|
