If resolvConfPath is unavailable and if the internally generated .hash file is still present, then updateDNS should not consider the presence of internally generated .hash. Rather, it must handle it as a case of using this resolvConfPath for the first time. Signed-off-by: Madhu Venugopal <madhu@docker.com> |

libnetwork - networking for containers
Libnetwork provides a native Go implementation for connecting containers
The goal of libnetwork is to deliver a robust Container Network Model that provides a consistent programming interface and the required network abstractions for applications.
NOTE: libnetwork project is under heavy development and is not ready for general use.
Design
Please refer to the design for more information.
Using libnetwork
There are many networking solutions available to suit a broad range of use-cases. libnetwork uses a driver / plugin model to support all of these solutions while abstracting the complexity of the driver implementations by exposing a simple and consistent Network Model to users.
// Create a new controller instance
controller := libnetwork.New()
// Select and configure the network driver
networkType := "bridge"
driverOptions := options.Generic{}
genericOption := make(map[string]interface{})
genericOption[netlabel.GenericData] = driverOptions
err := controller.ConfigureNetworkDriver(networkType, genericOption)
if err != nil {
return
}
// Create a network for containers to join.
// NewNetwork accepts Variadic optional arguments that libnetwork and Drivers can make of
network, err := controller.NewNetwork(networkType, "network1")
if err != nil {
return
}
// For each new container: allocate IP and interfaces. The returned network
// settings will be used for container infos (inspect and such), as well as
// iptables rules for port publishing. This info is contained or accessible
// from the returned endpoint.
ep, err := network.CreateEndpoint("Endpoint1")
if err != nil {
return
}
// A container can join the endpoint by providing the container ID to the join
// api which returns the sandbox key which can be used to access the sandbox
// created for the container during join.
// Join acceps Variadic arguments which will be made use of by libnetwork and Drivers
_, err = ep.Join("container1",
libnetwork.JoinOptionHostname("test"),
libnetwork.JoinOptionDomainname("docker.io"))
if err != nil {
return
}
// libentwork client can check the endpoint's operational data via the Info() API
epInfo, err := ep.Info()
mapData, ok := epInfo[netlabel.PortMap]
if ok {
portMapping, ok := mapData.([]netutils.PortBinding)
if ok {
fmt.Printf("Current port mapping for endpoint %s: %v", ep.Name(), portMapping)
}
}
Current Status
Please watch this space for updates on the progress.
Currently libnetwork is nothing more than an attempt to modularize the Docker platform's networking subsystem by moving it into libnetwork as a library.
Future
Please refer to roadmap for more information.
