Docker Remote API
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Brief introduction
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
- The Remote API is replacing rcli
|
|
- By default the Docker daemon listens on unix:///var/run/docker.sock and the client must have root access to interact with the daemon
|
|
- If a group named *docker* exists on your system, docker will apply ownership of the socket to the group
|
|
- The API tends to be REST, but for some complex commands, like attach
|
|
or pull, the HTTP connection is hijacked to transport stdout stdin
|
|
and stderr
|
|
- Since API version 1.2, the auth configuration is now handled client
|
|
side, so the client has to send the authConfig as POST in
|
|
/images/(name)/push
|
|
|
|
2. Versions
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
The current version of the API is 1.7
|
|
|
|
Calling /images/<name>/insert is the same as calling
|
|
/v1.7/images/<name>/insert
|
|
|
|
You can still call an old version of the api using
|
|
/v1.0/images/<name>/insert
|
|
|
|
v1.7

|
|
.. http:get:: /images/json
|
|
|
|
The format of the json returned from this uri changed. Instead of an entry
|
|
for each repo/tag on an image, each image is only represented once, with a
|
|
nested attribute indicating the repo/tags that apply to that image.
|
|
|
|
Instead of:
|
|
|
|
.. sourcecode:: http
|
|
|
|
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
|
|
Content-Type: application/json

- Simplify the upload of the build context
|
|
- Simply stream a tarball instead of multipart upload with 4
|
|
intermediary buffers
|
|
- Simpler, less memory usage, less disk usage and faster
|
|
|
|
.. Warning::
|
|
|
|
The /build improvements are not reverse-compatible. Pre 1.3 clients
|
|
will break on /build.

- You can now pass host-specific configuration (e.g. bind mounts) in
|
