Docker charm

This subordinate charm deploys the Docker engine within a running Juju charm application. Docker is an open platform for developers and sysadmins to build, ship, and run distributed applications in containers.

Docker containers wrap a piece of software in a complete file system that contains everything needed to run an application on a server.

Docker focuses on distributing applications as containers that can be quickly assembled from components that are run the same on different servers without environmental dependencies. This eliminates the friction between development, QA, and production environments.

States

The following states are set by this subordinate:

  • endpoint.{relation name}.available

    This state is set when docker is available for use.

Using the Docker subordinate charm

The Docker subordinate charm is to be used with principal charms that need a container runtime. To use, we deploy the Docker subordinate charm and then relate it to the principal charm.

juju deploy cs:~containers/docker
juju add-relation docker [principal charm]

Scale out Usage

This charm will automatically scale out with the principal charm.

Configuration

name type Default Description
apt-key-server string See notes APT Key Server
cuda_repo string 10.0.130-1 The cuda-repo package version to install.
custom-registry-ca string Base64 encoded Certificate Authority (CA) bundle. Setting this config allows container runtimes to pull images from registries with TLS certificates signed by an external CA.
disable-juju-proxy boolean False Ignore juju-http(s) proxy settings on this charm. If set to true, all juju https proxy settings will be ignored
docker-ce-package string See notes The pinned version of docker-ce package installed with nvidia-docker.
docker-logins string [] See notes
docker-opts string Extra options to pass to the Docker daemon. e.g. --insecure-registry.
docker_runtime string auto See notes
docker_runtime_key_url string Custom Docker repository validation key URL.
docker_runtime_package string Custom Docker repository package name.
docker_runtime_repo string See notes
enable-cgroups boolean False Enable GRUB cgroup overrides cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1. WARNING changing this option will reboot the host - use with caution on production services.
http_proxy string URL to use for HTTP_PROXY to be used by Docker. Useful in egress-filtered environments where a proxy is the only option for accessing the registry to pull images.
https_proxy string URL to use for HTTPS_PROXY to be used by Docker. Useful in egress-filtered environments where a proxy is the only option for accessing the registry to pull images.
no_proxy string See notes
nvidia-container-runtime-package string See notes The pinned version of nvidia-container-runtime package.
nvidia-docker-package string See notes The pinned version of nvidia-docker2 package.
