We have a much stronger capability. Using standard kpod-mount -and kpod-umount, we can take advantage of the entire linux tool chain, rather -then just cp. - -If a user wants to copy contents out of a container or into a container, they -can execute a few simple commands. - -You can copy from the container's file system to the local machine or the -reverse, from the local filesystem to the container. - -If you want to copy the /etc/foobar directory out of a container and onto /tmp -on the host, you could execute the following commands: - - mnt=$(kpod mount CONTAINERID) - cp -R ${mnt}/etc/foobar /tmp - kpod umount CONTAINERID - -If you want to untar a tar ball into a container, you can execute these commands: - - mnt=$(kpod mount CONTAINERID) - tar xf content.tgz -C ${mnt} - kpod umount CONTAINERID - -One last example, if you want to install a package into a container that -does not have dnf installed, you could execute something like: - - mnt=$(kpod mount CONTAINERID) - dnf install --installroot=${mnt} httpd - chroot ${mnt} rm -rf /var/log/dnf /var/cache/dnf - kpod umount CONTAINERID - -This shows that using `kpod mount` and `kpod umount` you can use all of the -standard linux tools for moving files into and out of containers, not just -the cp command. - -## SEE ALSO -kpod(1), kpod-mount(1), kpod-umount(1) |
