# My Hack Environment in a Docker Container
|
|
|
|
The container actually is based on rust:latest which itself is based on Debian (Bookworm). Maybe I will switch to the Debian image, or better switch to an Alpine based image in the future. Actually I prefer the Debian image because it makes it more flexible to me because sometimes I need the GNU libc to compile programs.
|
|
|
|
Why the name "rusty"? Because it is based on some earlier Docker stuff I made for compiling Rust code... And rusty just sounds cool.
|
|
|
|
My plan is to switch from Docker to native Linux Containers at some time but I am faster in building the prototype using Docker... ;)
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
* Docker...! What a wonder... :)
|
|
* Be sure to be a member of the docker group. Else you need to do all the next steps as user root. I will not cover this here!
|
|
|
|
## Get the code
|
|
|
|
git clone https://git.xw3.org/hanez/rusty
|
|
# or
|
|
git clone git@git.xw3.org:hanez/rusty.git # (needs an account on git.xw3.org)
|
|
cd rusty
|
|
|
|
## Prepare the environment
|
|
|
|
mkdir -p home/$USER
|
|
chown $USER:$USER home/$USER
|
|
chmod 0750 home/$USER
|
|
sudo chown root:root home
|
|
sudo mkdir root
|
|
sudo chown root:root root
|
|
|
|
## Configure your environment (Optional)
|
|
|
|
Optionally you can configure your $HOME directories (/home/$USER and /root). I do this by pulling my $HOME configuration from my Git server. Pulling my $HOME configuration will not work for you because you are not allowed to pull via the Git protocol. This is just an example on how I do it... E.g.:
|
|
|
|
git clone git@git.xw3.org:hanez/home.git home/hanez/
|
|
sudo git clone git@git.xw3.org:hanez/home.git root/
|
|
|
|
I manage these Git based $HOME directories/repositories outside of the container.
|
|
|
|
If you do not configure your $HOME directories here, the container's defaults will be used.
|
|
|
|
## Using docker compose
|
|
|
|
docker compose build
|
|
docker compose up -d
|
|
docker attach rusty
|
|
|
|
You can stop the container by executing "exit" or by hiting ctrl+c when attached. You can always detache the container when hiting ctrl+p and then ctrl+q. This is useful if you have a screen or a tmux session runningin your container, or maybe some other applications.
|
|
|
|
## Using the Dockerfile only (less comfortable and without shared directories)
|
|
|
|
I recommend not to do it this way! You have been warned!
|
|
|
|
docker build -t rusty .
|
|
docker run -it --entrypoint /bin/bash rusty
|
