# A proof-of-concept Rexray plugin
In this example, a simple Rexray plugin will be created for the purposes of using
it on an Amazon EC2 instance with EBS. It is not meant to be a complete Rexray plugin.
The example source is available at [https://github.com/tiborvass/rexray-plugin](https://github.com/tiborvass/rexray-plugin).
To learn more about Rexray: [https://github.com/codedellemc/rexray](https://github.com/codedellemc/rexray)
## 1. Make a Docker image
The following is the Dockerfile used to containerize rexray.
```Dockerfile
FROM debian:jessie
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends wget ca-certificates
RUN wget https://dl.bintray.com/emccode/rexray/stable/0.6.4/rexray-Linux-x86_64-0.6.4.tar.gz -O rexray.tar.gz && tar -xvzf rexray.tar.gz -C /usr/bin && rm rexray.tar.gz
RUN mkdir -p /run/docker/plugins /var/lib/libstorage/volumes
ENTRYPOINT ["rexray"]
CMD ["--help"]
```
To build it you can run `image=$(cat Dockerfile | docker build -q -)` and `$image`
will reference the containerized rexray image.
## 2. Extract rootfs
```sh
$ TMPDIR=/tmp/rexray # for the purpose of this example
$ # create container without running it, to extract the rootfs from image
$ docker create --name rexray "$image"
$ # save the rootfs to a tar archive
$ docker export -o $TMPDIR/rexray.tar rexray
$ # extract rootfs from tar archive to a rootfs folder
$ ( mkdir -p $TMPDIR/rootfs; cd $TMPDIR/rootfs; tar xf ../rexray.tar )
```
## 3. Add plugin configuration
We have to put the following JSON to `$TMPDIR/config.json`:
```json
{
"Args": {
"Description": "",
"Name": "",
"Settable": null,
"Value": null
},
"Description": "A proof-of-concept EBS plugin (using rexray) for Docker",
"Documentation": "https://github.com/tiborvass/rexray-plugin",
"Entrypoint": [
"/usr/bin/rexray", "service", "start", "-f"
],
"Env": [
{
"Description": "",
"Name": "REXRAY_SERVICE",
"Settable": [
"value"
],
"Value": "ebs"
},
{
"Description": "",
"Name": "EBS_ACCESSKEY",
"Settable": [
"value"
],
"Value": ""
},
{
"Description": "",
"Name": "EBS_SECRETKEY",
"Settable": [
"value"
],
"Value": ""
}
],
"Interface": {
"Socket": "rexray.sock",
"Types": [
"docker.volumedriver/1.0"
]
},
"Linux": {
"AllowAllDevices": true,
"Capabilities": ["CAP_SYS_ADMIN"],
"Devices": null
},
"Mounts": [
{
"Source": "/dev",
"Destination": "/dev",
"Type": "bind",
"Options": ["rbind"]
}
],
"Network": {
"Type": "host"
},
"PropagatedMount": "/var/lib/libstorage/volumes",
"User": {},
"WorkDir": ""
}
```
Please note a couple of points:
- `PropagatedMount` is needed so that the docker daemon can see mounts done by the
rexray plugin from within the container, otherwise the docker daemon is not able
to mount a docker volume.
- The rexray plugin needs dynamic access to host devices. For that reason, we
have to give it access to all devices under `/dev` and set `AllowAllDevices` to
true for proper access.
- The user of this simple plugin can change only 3 settings: `REXRAY_SERVICE`,
`EBS_ACCESSKEY` and `EBS_SECRETKEY`. This is because of the reduced scope of this
plugin. Ideally other rexray parameters could also be set.
## 4. Create plugin
`docker plugin create tiborvass/rexray-plugin "$TMPDIR"` will create the plugin.
```sh
$ docker plugin ls
ID NAME DESCRIPTION ENABLED
2475a4bd0ca5 tiborvass/rexray-plugin:latest A rexray volume plugin for Docker false
```
## 5. Test plugin
```sh
$ docker plugin set tiborvass/rexray-plugin EBS_ACCESSKEY=$AWS_ACCESSKEY EBS_SECRETKEY=$AWS_SECRETKEY`
$ docker plugin enable tiborvass/rexray-plugin
$ docker volume create -d tiborvass/rexray-plugin my-ebs-volume
$ docker volume ls
DRIVER VOLUME NAME
tiborvass/rexray-plugin:latest my-ebs-volume
$ docker run --rm -v my-ebs-volume:/volume busybox sh -c 'echo bye > /volume/hi'
$ docker run --rm -v my-ebs-volume:/volume busybox cat /volume/hi
bye
```
## 6. Push plugin
First, ensure you are logged in with `docker login`. Then you can run:
`docker plugin push tiborvass/rexray-plugin` to push it like a regular docker
image to a registry, to make it available for others to install via
`docker plugin install tiborvass/rexray-plugin EBS_ACCESSKEY=$AWS_ACCESSKEY EBS_SECRETKEY=$AWS_SECRETKEY`.
