In libcontainer, we use +the current binary (/proc/self/exe) to be executed as the init process, and use +arg "init", we call the first step process "bootstrap", so you always need a "init" +function as the entry of "bootstrap". + +In addition to the go init function the early stage bootstrap is handled by importing +[nsenter](https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/blob/master/libcontainer/nsenter/README.md). + +```go +import ( + _ "github.com/opencontainers/runc/libcontainer/nsenter" +) + +func init() { + if len(os.Args) > 1 && os.Args[1] == "init" { + runtime.GOMAXPROCS(1) + runtime.LockOSThread() + factory, _ := libcontainer.New("") + if err := factory.StartInitialization(); err != nil { + logrus.Fatal(err) + } + panic("--this line should have never been executed, congratulations--") + } +} +``` + +Then to create a container you first have to initialize an instance of a factory +that will handle the creation and initialization for a container. + +```go +factory, err := libcontainer.New("/var/lib/container", libcontainer.Cgroupfs, libcontainer.InitArgs(os.Args[0], "init")) +if err != nil { + logrus.Fatal(err) + return +} +``` + +Once you have an instance of the factory created we can create a configuration +struct describing how the container is to be created. A sample would look similar to this: + +```go +defaultMountFlags := unix.MS_NOEXEC | unix.MS_NOSUID | unix.MS_NODEV +config := &configs.Config{ + Rootfs: "/your/path/to/rootfs", + Capabilities:

configuration populated you can create a container: + +```go +container, err := factory.Create("container-id", config) +if err != nil { + logrus.Fatal(err) + return +} +``` + +To spawn bash as the initial process inside the container and have the +processes pid returned in order to wait, signal, or kill the process: + +```go +process := &libcontainer.Process{ + Args: []string{"/bin/bash"}, + Env: []string{"PATH=/bin"}, + User: "daemon", + Stdin: os.Stdin, + Stdout: os.Stdout, + Stderr: os.Stderr, +} + +err := container.Run(process) +if err != nil { + container.Destroy() + logrus.Fatal(err) + return +} + +// wait for the process to finish. +_, err := process.Wait() +if err != nil { + logrus.Fatal(err) +} + +// destroy the container. +container.Destroy() +``` + +Additional ways to interact with a running container are: + +```go +// return all the pids for all processes running inside the container. +processes, err := container.Processes() + +// get detailed cpu, memory, io, and network statistics for the container and +// it's processes. +stats, err := container.Stats() + +// pause all processes inside the container. +container.Pause() + +// resume all paused processes. +container.Resume() + +// send signal to container's init process. +container.Signal(signal) + +// update container resource constraints. +container.Set(config) + +// get current status of the container. +status, err := container.Status() + +// get current container's state information. +state, err := container.State() +``` + + +#### Checkpoint & Restore + +libcontainer now integrates [CRIU](http://criu.org/) for checkpointing and restoring containers. +This let's you save the state of a process running inside a container to disk, and then restore +that state into a new process, on the same machine or on another machine. + +`criu` version 1.5.2 or higher is required to use checkpoint and restore. +If you don't already have `criu` installed, you can build it from source, following the +[online instructions](http://criu.org/Installation). `criu` is also installed in the docker image +generated when building libcontainer with docker. + + +## Copyright and
