Brief introduction 15 16 - The Remote API has replaced `rcli`. 17 - The daemon listens on `unix:///var/run/docker.sock` but you can bind 18 Docker to another host/port or a Unix socket. 19 - The API tends to be REST, but for some complex commands, like `attach` 20 or `pull`, the HTTP connection is hijacked to transport `STDOUT`, `STDIN` 21 and `STDERR`. 22 23 # 2.

It also contain the size of the 555 associated frame encoded on the last 4 bytes (uint32). 556 557 It is encoded on the first 8 bytes like this: 558 559 header := [8]byte{STREAM_TYPE, 0, 0, 0, SIZE1, SIZE2, SIZE3, SIZE4} 560 561 `STREAM_TYPE` can be: 562 563 - 0: stdin (will be written on stdout) 564 - 1: stdout 565 - 2: stderr 566 567 `SIZE1, SIZE2, SIZE3, SIZE4` are the 4 bytes of 568 the uint32 size encoded as big endian. 569 570 **PAYLOAD** 571 572 The payload is the raw stream. 573 574 **IMPLEMENTATION** 575 576 The simplest way to implement the Attach protocol is the following: 577 578 1. Read 8 bytes 579 2. chose stdout or stderr depending on the first byte 580 3. Extract the frame size from the last 4 bytes 581 4. Read the extracted size and output it on the correct output 582 5.

the file format version 1339 2. `json`: detailed layer information, similar to `docker inspect layer_id` 1340 3. `layer.tar`: A tarfile containing the filesystem changes in this layer 1341 1342 The `layer.tar` file will contain `aufs` style `.wh..wh.aufs` files and directories 1343 for storing attribute changes and deletions. 1344 1345 If the tarball defines a repository, there will also be a `repositories` file at 1346 the root that contains a list of repository and tag names mapped to layer IDs. 1347 1348 ``` 1349 {"hello-world": 1350 {"latest": "565a9d68a73f6706862bfe8409a7f659776d4d60a8d096eb4a3cbce6999cc2a1"} 1351 } 1352 ``` 1353 1354 # 3. Going further 1355 1356 ## 3.1 Inside `docker run` 1357 1358 As an example, the `docker run` command line makes the following API calls: 1359 1360 - Create the container 1361 1362 - If the status code is 404, it means the image doesn't exist: 1363 - Try to pull it 1364 - Then retry to create the container 1365 1366 - Start the container 1367 1368 - If you are not in detached mode: 1369 - Attach to the container, using logs=1 (to have stdout and 1370 stderr from the container's start) and stream=1 1371 1372 - If in detached mode or only stdin is attached: 1373 - Display the container's id 1374 1375 ## 3.2 Hijacking 1376 1377 In this version of the API, /attach, uses hijacking to transport stdin, 1378 stdout and stderr on the same socket. This might change in the future. 1379 1380 ## 3.3 CORS Requests 1381 1382 To enable cross origin requests to the remote api add the flag 1383 "--api-enable-cors" when running docker in daemon mode. 1384 1385 $ docker -d -H="192.168.1.9:2375" --api-enable-cors
