<title>Declarative Container Specification</title>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<para>You can also specify containers and their configuration in the
|
|||
|
|
host’s <filename>configuration.nix</filename>. For example, the
|
|||
|
|
following specifies that there shall be a container named
|
|||
|
|
<literal>database</literal> running PostgreSQL:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|||
|
|
containers.database =
|
|||
|
|
{ config =
|
|||
|
|
{ config, pkgs, ... }:
|
|||
|
|
{ services.postgresql.enable = true;
|
|||
|
|
services.postgresql.package = pkgs.postgresql92;
|
|||
|
|
};
|
|||
|
|
};
|
|||
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you run <literal>nixos-rebuild switch</literal>, the container will
|
|||
|
|
be built and started. If the container was already running, it will be
|
|||
|
|
updated in place, without rebooting.</para>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<para>By default, declarative containers share the network namespace
|
|||
|
|
of the host, meaning that they can listen on (privileged)
|
|||
|
|
ports. However, they cannot change the network configuration. You can
|
|||
|
|
give a container its own network as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|||
|
|
containers.database =
|
|||
|
|
{ privateNetwork = true;
|
|||
|
|
hostAddress = "192.168.100.10";
|
|||
|
|
localAddress = "192.168.100.11";
|
|||
|
|
};
|
|||
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This gives the container a private virtual Ethernet interface with IP
|
|||
|
|
address <literal>192.168.100.11</literal>, which is hooked up to a
|
|||
|
|
virtual Ethernet interface on the host with IP address
|
|||
|
|
<literal>192.168.100.10</literal>. (See the next section for details
|
|||
|
|
on container networking.)</para>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<para>To disable the container, just remove it from
|
|||
|
|
<filename>configuration.nix</filename> and run <literal>nixos-rebuild
|
|||
|
|
switch</literal>. Note that this will not delete the root directory of
|
|||
|
|
the container in <literal>/var/lib/containers</literal>.</para>
