quick-lxc-deploy
================
Couple of bash scripts hacked together for effortless deploying/accessing debian-based containers.
### Why?
Educational purposes. For fully featured lxc manager you may want to try:
* https://github.com/fgrehm/vagrant-lxc
* https://github.com/lxctl/lxctl
* http://libvirt.org/drvlxc.html
### Usage
```
Usage: qlxc help (prints this help message)
qlxc deploy amd64|i386 []
qlxc ssh [] []
qlxc start []
qlxc stop []
qlxc rm []
```
### Example usages:
To deploy Ubuntu Raring (x86_64) with default hostname (raring-amd64):
`qlxc deploy raring amd64`
To echo hostname of first container:
`qlxc ssh 0 "echo \$(hostname)"`
### Features
qlxc takes care of:
* fetching predefined set of packages and packing them into tarball in your CACHE_DIR directory
* installing new container in DEPLOY_DIR directory
* creating SSH key files in ~/.ssh/lxc_rsa for root and current user (for speed-dialing with qlxc ssh)
* creating an account for current user on a target container with rbind-mounting user's home directory
* starting/stoping/removing containers
### Configuration file - ~/.qlxc.conf
qlxc uses the following options:
* PACKAGES - additional packages list to be included into container
* CACHE_DIR - path to directory storing debootstrap's tarballs
* DEPLOY_DIR - prefix path for container rootfs
qlxc ssh
======
Speed-dial-like access to a container.
### Speed dialing
Typical qlxc ssh output:
```
[rjeczalik@rjeczalik-ub64 rjeczalik]$ qlxc ssh
[0] lenny-amd64 (10.0.3.132)
[1] lenny-i386 (10.0.3.166)
[2] squeeze-amd64 (10.0.3.107)
[3] squeeze-i386 (10.0.3.190)
```
qlxc ssh connects to a container as current user - e.g. in order to login as root to squeeze-amd64 container call
`sudo qlxc ssh 2`
