    12  # Docker Remote API v1.14
    13  
    14  ## 1. Brief introduction
    15  
    16   - The Remote API has replaced `rcli`.
    17   - The daemon listens on `unix:///var/run/docker.sock` but you can
    18     [Bind Docker to another host/port or a Unix socket](
    19     /articles/basics/#bind-docker-to-another-hostport-or-a-unix-socket).
    20   - The API tends to be REST, but for some complex commands, like `attach`
    21     or `pull`, the HTTP connection is hijacked to transport `STDOUT`,
    22     `STDIN` and `STDERR`.

   143               "RestartPolicy": { "Name": "always" }
   144          }
   145  
   146  **Example response**:
   147  
   148          HTTP/1.1 201 Created
   149          Content-Type: application/json
   150  
   151          {

   153               "Warnings":[]
   154          }
   155  
   156  Json Parameters:
   157  
   158  -   **RestartPolicy** – The behavior to apply when the container exits.  The
   159          value is an object with a `Name` property of either `"always"` to
   160          always restart or `"on-failure"` to restart only when the container
   161          exit code is non-zero.  If `on-failure` is used, `MaximumRetryCount`
   162          controls the number of times to retry before giving up.
   163          The default is not to restart. (optional)
   164          An ever increasing delay (double the previous delay, starting at 100mS)
   165          is added before each restart to prevent flooding the server.
   166  -   **config** – the container's configuration
   167  
   168  Query Parameters:
   169  
   170  -   **name** – Assign the specified name to the container. Must match `/?[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+`.
   171  
   172  Status Codes:
   173  
   174  -   **201** – no error
   175  -   **404** – no such container
   176  -   **406** – impossible to attach (container not running)
   177  -   **500** – server error
   178  
   179  ### Inspect a container
   180  
   181  `GET /containers/(id)/json`
   182  
   183  Return low-level information on the container `id`
   184

   579  -   **stdout** – 1/True/true or 0/False/false, if logs=true, return
   580      stdout log, if stream=true, attach to stdout. Default false

   585  
   586  -   **200** – no error

   590  
   591      **Stream details**:
   592  
   593      When using the TTY setting is enabled in
   594      [`POST /containers/create`
   595      ](/reference/api/docker_remote_api_v1.9/#create-a-container "POST /containers/create"),
   596      the stream is the raw data from the process PTY and client's stdin.
   597      When the TTY is disabled, then the stream is multiplexed to separate
   598      stdout and stderr.
   599  
   600      The format is a **Header** and a **Payload** (frame).
   601  
   602      **HEADER**
   603  
   604      The header will contain the information on which stream write the
   605      stream (stdout or stderr). It also contain the size of the
   606      associated frame encoded on the last 4 bytes (uint32).
   607  
   608      It is encoded on the first 8 bytes like this:
   609  
   610          header := [8]byte{STREAM_TYPE, 0, 0, 0, SIZE1, SIZE2, SIZE3, SIZE4}
   611  
   612      `STREAM_TYPE` can be:
   613  
   614  -   0: stdin (will be written on stdout)
   615  -   1: stdout
   616  -   2: stderr
   617  
   618      `SIZE1, SIZE2, SIZE3, SIZE4` are the 4 bytes of
   619      the uint32 size encoded as big endian.
   620  
   621      **PAYLOAD**
   622  
   623      The payload is the raw stream.
   624  
   625      **IMPLEMENTATION**
   626  
   627      The simplest way to implement the Attach protocol is the following:
   628  
   629      1.  Read 8 bytes
   630      2.  chose stdout or stderr depending on the first byte
   631      3.  Extract the frame size from the last 4 bytes
   632      4.  Read the extracted size and output it on the correct output
   633      5.  Goto 1
   634  
   635  ### Attach to a container (websocket)
   636  
   637  `GET /containers/(id)/attach/ws`
   638

  1397  
  1398  ### Image tarball format
  1399  
  1400  An image tarball contains one directory per image layer (named using its long ID),
  1401  each containing three files:
  1402  
  1403  1. `VERSION`: currently `1.0` - the file format version
  1404  2. `json`: detailed layer information, similar to `docker inspect layer_id`
  1405  3. `layer.tar`: A tarfile containing the filesystem changes in this layer
  1406  
  1407  The `layer.tar` file will contain `aufs` style `.wh..wh.aufs` files and directories
  1408  for storing attribute changes and deletions.
  1409  
  1410  If the tarball defines a repository, there will also be a `repositories` file at
  1411  the root that contains a list of repository and tag names mapped to layer IDs.
  1412  
  1413  ```
  1414  {"hello-world":
  1415      {"latest": "565a9d68a73f6706862bfe8409a7f659776d4d60a8d096eb4a3cbce6999cc2a1"}
  1416  }
  1417  ```
  1418  
  1419  # 3. Going further
  1420  
  1421  ## 3.1 Inside `docker run`
  1422  
  1423  As an example, the `docker run` command line makes the following API calls:
  1424  
  1425  - Create the container
  1426  
  1427  - If the status code is 404, it means the image doesn't exist:
  1428      - Try to pull it
  1429      - Then retry to create the container
  1430  
  1431  - Start the container
  1432  
  1433  - If you are not in detached mode:
  1434      - Attach to the container, using logs=1 (to have stdout and
  1435        stderr from the container's start) and stream=1
  1436  
  1437  - If in detached mode or only stdin is attached:
  1438      - Display the container's id
  1439  
  1440  ## 3.2 Hijacking
  1441  
  1442  In this version of the API, /attach, uses hijacking to transport stdin,
  1443  stdout and stderr on the same socket. This might change in the future.
  1444  
  1445  ## 3.3 CORS Requests
  1446  
  1447  To enable cross origin requests to the remote api add the flag
  1448  "--api-enable-cors" when running docker in daemon mode.
  1449  
  1450      $ docker -d -H="192.168.1.9:2375" --api-enable-cors
