Docker service allows running docker containers within CORE nodes.
The running of Docker within a CORE node allows for additional extensibility to
the CORE services. This allows network applications and protocols to be easily
packaged and run on any node.
This service that will add a new group to the services list. This
will have a service called Docker which will just start the docker service
within the node but not run anything. It will also scan all docker images on
the host machine. If any are tagged with 'core' then they will be added as a
service to the Docker group. The image will then be auto run if that service is
selected.
This requires a recent version of Docker. This was tested using a PPA on Ubuntu
with version 1.2.0. The version in the standard Ubuntu repo is to old for
this purpose (we need --net host).
It also requires docker-py (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/docker-py) which can be
installed with 'pip install docker-py'. This is used to interface with Docker
from the python service.
An example use case is to pull an image from Docker.com. A test image has been
uploaded for this purpose:
sudo docker pull stuartmarsden/multicastping
This downloads an image which is based on Ubuntu 14.04 with python and twisted.
It runs a simple program that sends a multicast ping and listens and records
any it receives.
In order for this to appear as a docker service it must be tagged with core.
Find out the id by running 'sudo docker images'. You should see all installed
images and the one you want looks like this:
stuartmarsden/multicastping latest 4833487e66d2 20 hours
ago 487 MB
The id will be different on your machine so use it in the following command:
sudo docker tag 4833487e66d2 stuartmarsden/multicastping:core
This image will be listed in the services after we restart the core-daemon:
sudo service core-daemon restart
You can set up a simple network with a number of PCs connected to a switch. Set
the stuartmarsden/multicastping service for all the PCs. When started they will
all begin sending Multicast pings.
In order to see what is happening you can go in to the terminal of a node and
look at the docker log. Easy shorthand is:
docker logs $(docker ps -q)
Which just shows the log of the running docker container (usually just one per
node). I have added this as an observer node to my setup: Name: docker logs
Command: bash -c 'docker logs $(docker ps -q) | tail -20'
So I can just hover over to see the log which looks like this:
Datagram 'Client: Ping' received from ('10.0.0.20', 8005)
Datagram 'Client: Ping' received from ('10.0.5.21', 8005)
Datagram 'Client: Ping' received from ('10.0.3.20', 8005)

Datagram 'Client: Ping' received from ('10.0.4.21', 8005)
Datagram 'Client: Ping' received from ('10.0.5.20', 8005)
Limitations:
1. Docker images must be downloaded on the host as usually a CORE node does not
have access to the internet.
2. Each node isolates running containers (keeps things simple)
3. Recent version of docker needed so that --net host can be used. This does
not further abstract the network within a node and allows multicast which
is not enabled within Docker containers at the moment.
4. The core-daemon must be restarted for new images to show up.
5. A Docker-daemon is run within each node but the images are shared. This
does mean that the daemon attempts to access an SQLlite database within the
host. At startup all the nodes will try to access this and it will be locked
for most due to contention. The service just does a hackish wait for 1 second
and retry. This means all the docker containers can take a while to come up
depending on how many nodes you have.

## Overview
Docker service allows running docker containers within CORE nodes.
The running of Docker within a CORE node allows for additional extensibility to
the CORE services. This allows network applications and protocols to be easily
packaged and run on any node.
This service will add a new group to the services list. This will have a service called Docker which will just start the docker service within the node but not run anything. It will also scan all docker images on the host machine. If any are tagged with 'core' then they will be added as a service to the Docker group. The image will then be auto run if that service is selected.
This requires a recent version of Docker. This was tested using a PPA on Ubuntu with version 1.2.0. The version in the standard Ubuntu repo is to old for this purpose (we need --net host).
## Docker Installation
To use Docker services, you must first install the Docker python image. This is used to interface with Docker from the python service.
```shell
sudo apt-get install docker.io
sudo apt-get install python-pip
pip install docker-py
```
Once everything runs successfully, a Docker group under services will appear. An example use case is to pull an image from [Docker](https://hub.docker.com/). A test image has been uploaded for this purpose:
```shell
sudo docker pull stuartmarsden/multicastping
```
This downloads an image which is based on Ubuntu 14.04 with python and twisted. It runs a simple program that sends a multicast ping and listens and records any it receives. In order for this to appear as a docker service it must be tagged with core.
Find out the id by running 'sudo docker images'. You should see all installed images and the one you want looks like this:
```shell
stuartmarsden/multicastping latest 4833487e66d2 20 hours
ago 487 MB
```
The id will be different on your machine so use it in the following command:
```shell
sudo docker tag 4833487e66d2 stuartmarsden/multicastping:core
```
This image will be listed in the services after we restart the core-daemon:
```shell
sudo service core-daemon restart
```
