Description:
bicti 0.1.1
Simple startup tool for docker containers.
bicti is intended as the entrypoint of a container,
and provides a few helpers for systems that may require several services
(for instance, fastcgi and nginx and cron and logrotate).
Its features include:
Declarative list of supported commands
Launch all demons or only a few ones
Drop into a shell instead
Depencies
bicti is written in Python; it supports all versions from 2.6 onwards.
It also relies on runit (http://smarden.org/runit/) for daemon management.
Setup
In your dockerfile, add:
RUN apt-get -qqy install runit python python-pip
RUN pip install bicti && ln -s /sbin/bicti `which bicti`
ADD ./bicti.ini /etc/bicti.ini
RUN /sbin/bicti --setup
ENTRYPOINT "/sbin/bicti"
This will:
Retrieve bicti and its dependencies
Load your bicti.ini configuration file (expected at /etc/bicti.ini)
Setup all daemon startup scripts in /etc/runit
Declare bicti as your entry point.
Core concepts
Beyond a few command-line flags, most of bicti’s job is in setting up the configuration
for runit.
Upon startup, bicti will:
Load its configuration file (/etc/bicti.ini)
Setup runit to start the declared services
Transfer control to runit, which handles daemon auto-restart, orphan process reaping, etc.
