This charm provides Docker. Docker is an open platform for developers and sysadmins to build, ship, and run distributed applications. Consisting of Docker Engine, a portable, lightweight runtime and packaging tool, and Docker Hub, a cloud service for sharing applications and automating workflows, Docker enables apps to be quickly assembled from components and eliminates the friction between development, QA, and production environments
Step by step instructions on using the charm:
juju deploy cs:~hazmat/trusty/flannel
juju deploy cs:~lazypower/trusty/docker --to 1
Scaling out the docker service is as simple as adding additional flannel units and docker services to expand your cluster. Docker containers can be run on any host and communicate with one another so long as the docker charm is co-located with flannel.
The Docker charm currently has to be deployed in tandem with flannel to communicate across the network with other docker containers. In any HA configuration this will be a requirement.
- latest : By default the charm assumes installation from the ubuntu repositories. If you wish to deploy the latest upstream docker runtime enable this option.
