## Introduction
`iSulad` , written in C/C++, is a lightweight container engine that has the advantage of being light, fast and applicable to multiple hardware specifications and architecture. `iSulad` has a wide application prospect.
## Architecture
You can see `iSulad` architecture in [architecture](./docs/design/architecture.md).
## Function
### Runtime
`iSulad` support multiple container runtimes, including lxc、runc and kata.
#### lxc
lxc is an open-source container runtime written in C , which occupies less resources and is suitable for scenarios with high restrictions on noise floor resources. It is the default runtime of iSulad.
#### runc
runc is an OCI-compliant runtime written in GO. When users use runc, the OCI runtime-spec version is required to be at least 1.0.0.
#### kata-runtime
kata-runtime start secure containers with lightweight virtual machines.
### Image
`iSulad` supports multiple image formats, including OCI and external rootfs.
#### OCI
OCI is a docker-compatible image format that supports pulling images and running containers from remote image repositories.
#### external rootfs
External rootfs allows users to prepare a bootable `root fs` directory, which is mainly used in system container scenarios.
### Operation Interface
`iSulad` provides two different interfaces for image and container management operations: CLI and CRI.
#### CLI
CLI uses the command line to manage images and containers. It is a standard C/S architecture model. iSula performs as an independent command line client that talks to the iSulad daemon.
The commands provided by iSula cover most of the common application scenarios, including the operation interface of the container, such as run, stop, rm, pause, etc, as well as the related operations of the image, such as pull, import, rmi, etc.
#### CRI
CRI (Container Runtime Interface) implementer can work seamlessly with K8s.
CRI interface is implemented based on gRPC. iSulad implemented CRI gRPC Server following CRI interface standards. CRI gRPC Server includes runtime service and image service, which are used to provide container runtime interface and image operation interface respectively. CRI gRPC Server listen on a local unix socket, and the K8s component kubelet runs as a gRPC Client.
## Getting Started
- [usage guide: openeuler official manual](https://docs.openeuler.org/zh/docs/22.03_LTS/docs/Container/container.html)
- [development guide](./docs/build_docs/README.md)
- [user manual](./docs/manual/README.md)
- [design docs](./docs/design/README.md)
### Installing
To install `iSulad`, you can use `yum` package manager command with `openEuler` repository.
Or write repository file by hand:
```shell
$ cat << EOF > /etc/yum.repos.d/openEuler.repo
[openEuler]
baseurl=https://repo.openeuler.org/openEuler-22.03-LTS/OS/\$basearch
enabled=1
EOF
```
Install `iSulad` with yum:
```shell
$ yum install -y iSulad
```
if you found this error
```txt
Repository 'openEuler' is missing name in configuration, using id.
You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good thing.
However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need to download
the keys for packages you wish to install and install them.
You can do that by running the command:
rpm --import public.gpg.key
Alternatively you can specify the url to the key you would like to use
for a repository in the 'gpgkey' option in a repository section and YUM
will install it for you.
For more information contact your distribution or package provider.
```
you should run `rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-openEuler` first.
### Configure
Configure the container image registry address, for example "docker.io" or other registry addrss.
```shell
# cat /etc/isulad/daemon.json
.....
"registry-mirrors": [
"docker.io"
],
.....
```
### Run
`iSulad` provides two ways to start the isulad:
1. Use `systemd` service to start `iSulad`:
```shell
# restart the server with systemd command
$ systemctl restart isulad
```
2. Use direct command to start `iSulad`:
```shell
# run the server with default socket name and default log level and images manage function
$ sudo isulad
```
### Operations on containers
`iSulad` provides two operation interfaces for managing images and containers: CLI and CRI.
#### **CLI**
CLI, `iSulad` provides `isula` as client CLI
Here are some sample commands to manager containers.
- List all containers in your own environment:
```shell
$ sudo isula ps -a
```
- Create a container with busybox:
- You can create container `test` with default runtime:
```sh
$ sudo isula create -t -n test busybox
```
- You also can create container `testrunc` with **runc runtime**:
```sh
$ sudo isula create -t --runtime runc -n testrunc busybox
```
- Start this container `test`:
```shell
$ sudo isula start test
```
- Kill the container `test`:
```shell
$ sudo isula kill test
```
- Remove the container `test`:
```shell
$ sudo isula rm test
```
#### CRI
`iSulad` can be integrated with kubernetes through the CRI interface. For integrating with kubernetes, please refer to [k8s_integration](./docs/manual/k8s_integration.md).
## Performance
Using [ptcr](https://gitee.com/openeuler/ptcr) as a performance test tool , it shows the performance of `iSulad` in computers with different architectures.
### ARM
- For searially with 10 containers, the performance radar chart of `iSula`, `docker`, `podman` is as follows:
- For parallerlly with 100 containers, the performance radar chart of `iSula`, `docker`, `podman` is as follows:
