Docker的/var/run/docker.sock参数
1、关于数据卷参数/var/run/docker.sock
在创建docker容器时,有时会用到/var/run/docker.sock这样的数据卷参数,例如fluentbit-operator initContainers容器的数据卷参数带有/var/run/docker.sock:
initContainers: - command: - /bin/sh - -c - set -ex; echo DOCKER_ROOT_DIR=$(docker info -f {{.DockerRootDir}}) > /fluentbit-operator/fluent-bit.env image: docker:19.03 imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent name: setenv resources: {} terminationMessagePath: /dev/termination-log terminationMessagePolicy: File volumeMounts: - mountPath: /fluentbit-operator name: env - mountPath: /var/run/docker.sock name: dockersock readOnly: true restartPolicy: Always schedulerName: default-scheduler securityContext: {} serviceAccount: fluentbit-operator serviceAccountName: fluentbit-operator terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 30 volumes: - emptyDir: {} name: env - hostPath: path: /var/run/docker.sock type: "" name: dockersock
本文主要介绍数据卷参数/var/run/docker.sock的作用。
2、Docker架构
搞清楚/var/run/docker.sock参数的前提是了解docker的client+server架构,如下是执行docker version命令的结果:
[root@node1 ~]# docker version Client: Docker Engine - Community Version: 20.10.12 API version: 1.41 Go version: go1.16.12 Git commit: e91ed57 Built: Mon Dec 13 11:45:41 2021 OS/Arch: linux/amd64 Context: default Experimental: true Server: Docker Engine - Community Engine: Version: 20.10.12 API version: 1.41 (minimum version 1.12) Go version: go1.16.12 Git commit: 459d0df Built: Mon Dec 13 11:44:05 2021 OS/Arch: linux/amd64 Experimental: false containerd: Version: 1.4.13 GitCommit: 9cc61520f4cd876b86e77edfeb88fbcd536d1f9d runc: Version: 1.0.3 GitCommit: v1.0.3-0-gf46b6ba docker-init: Version: 0.19.0 GitCommit: de40ad0
可见在服务器上运行的docker由client和server组成,我们输入docker version命令实际上是通过客户端将请求发送到同一台服务器上的Doceker Daemon服务,由Docker Daemon返回信息,客户端收到信息后展示在控制台上,docker的架构图如下:
3、Docker的/var/run/docker.sock参数配置
官方地址:https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/dockerd/#description
Daemon socket option The Docker daemon can listen for Docker Engine API requests via three different types of Socket: unix, tcp, and fd. By default, a unix domain socket (or IPC socket) is created at /var/run/docker.sock, requiring either root permission, or docker group membership. ......
可见daemon默认监听的是/var/run/docker.sock这个文件,当你在服务器上安装并且启动好docker,docker daemon 会自动创建一个socket文件并且保存在/var/run/docker.sock目录下。docker daemon监听着socket中即将到来的链接请求(可以通过-H unix:///var/run/docker.sock
设定docker daemon监听的socket文件,-H参数还可以设定监听tcp:port或者其它的unix socket),所以docker客户端只要把请求发往这里,daemon就能收到并且做出响应。
按照上面的解释来推理:我们也可以向/var/run/docker.sock发送请求,也能达到docker ps、docker images这样的效果。
4、向Docker Daemon发送请求
为了验证Docker Daemon可以通过/var/run/docker.sock接收请求,我们用curl命令来验证。
1)执行命令查看当前服务器有哪些镜像:
curl -s --unix-socket /var/run/docker.sock http:/images/json
此命令可以直接发http请求到Docker Daemon,获取本地镜像列表,等同于在服务器上执行docker images命令,收到的响应是JSON,格式化后如下所示,可见通过/var/run/docker.sock向Docker Daemon发送请求是没有问题的:
{ "alert": { "alert_name": "gdfgfdfg" }, "resource_filter": { "resource_type": "node", "rs_type_id": "rst-3m8ZmxVylG90", "rs_filter_param": "{\"node_id\":\"zmc-manage-uat-107\"}", "_nodes": [ "zmc-manage-uat-107" ], "_type": "node" }, "policy": { "creator": "admin", "rs_type_id": "rst-3m8ZmxVylG90", "policy_name": "", "policy_description": "", "policy_config": "{\"critical\":{\"repeat_type\":\"fixed-minutes\",\"repeat_interval_initvalue\":30,\"max_send_count\":2147483648},\"major\":{\"repeat_type\":\"fixed-minutes\",\"repeat_interval_initvalue\":120,\"max_send_count\":5},\"minor\":{\"repeat_type\":\"not-repeat\",\"repeat_interval_initvalue\":0,\"max_send_count\":1}}", "available_start_time": "00:00:00", "available_end_time": "23:59:00", "language": "zh" }, "rules": [ { "rule_name": "容器组异常率", "_config": { "monitor_periods": 15, "consecutive_count": 3, "condition_type": ">", "thresholds": "90", "severity": "critical", "unit": "%", "_metricType": "node_pod_abnormal_ratio" }, "monitor_periods": 15, "consecutive_count": 3, "condition_type": ">", "thresholds": "90", "severity": "critical", "unit": "%", "_metricType": "node_pod_abnormal_ratio", "metric_id": "mt-lgGwk9n1XYlx" } ], "action": { "action_name": "adl-PK2WWL66XRJn", "nf_address_list_id": "adl-PK2WWL66XRJn" } }
2)执行以下命令,可以直接发http请求到Docker Daemon,获取运行中的容器列表,等同于docker ps:
curl -s --unix-socket /var/run/docker.sock http:/containers/json
收到的响应是JSON,格式化后如下所示:
[{ "Id": "fa3fd1993f864ccd695d50f157883fd1ae948b91bad1ab96da891c73584104d2", "Names": ["/es_admin"], "Image": "mobz/elasticsearch-head:5", "ImageID": "sha256:b19a5c98e43bb87849b71f4389b9ed373f63e8c1fe0fabe2ac5a137497425db2", "Command": "/bin/sh -c 'grunt server'", "Created": 1622549687, "Ports": [{ "IP": "0.0.0.0", "PrivatePort": 9100, "PublicPort": 9100, "Type": "tcp" }], "Labels": {}, "State": "running", "Status": "Up 5 seconds", "HostConfig": { "NetworkMode": "default" }, "NetworkSettings": { "Networks": { "bridge": { "IPAMConfig": null, "Links": null, "Aliases": null, "NetworkID": "a7499f080f7060c80ec68c66e347326df547817bed12f0317e602ec060d75098", "EndpointID": "6c29c0bb92596e91e20595dc075e5453515b6aec142fc677d50666cffa2d83bd", "Gateway": "172.17.0.1", "IPAddress": "172.17.0.2", "IPPrefixLen": 16, "IPv6Gateway": "", "GlobalIPv6Address": "", "GlobalIPv6PrefixLen": 0, "MacAddress": "02:42:ac:11:00:02", "DriverOpts": null } } }, "Mounts": [] }]
更多与Docker Daemon交互的请求信息请参考官方文档:https://docs.docker.com/engine/api/v1.39 。
至此,我们对docker的client、server架构有了清楚的认识:Docker Daemon相当于一个server,监听来自/var/run/docker.sock的请求,然后做出各种响应,例如返回镜像列表,创建容器。
5、总结
/var/run/docker.sock是docker daemon监听的套接字socket(ip+port),容器中的进程可以通过它与docker daemon通信。
再回到文章开篇处的问题,启动容器时的数据卷参数"/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock"有什么用?
宿主机的/var/run/docker.sock被映射到了容器内,有以下两个作用:
- 在容器内只要向/var/run/docker.sock发送http请求就能和Docker Daemon通信了,可以做的事情前面已经试过了,官方提供的API文档中有详细说明,镜像列表、容器列表这些统统不在话下;
- 如果容器内有docker二进制文件,那么在容器内执行docker ps、docker port这些命令,和在宿主机上执行的效果是一样的,虽然容器内和宿主机上的docker二进制可能不同,但是他们的请求发往的是同一个Docker Daemon;
基于以上结论,开篇问题中的fluentbit-operator initContainers这个容器(使用镜像docker:19.03,通过此镜像可以使用docker客户端命令)用到了数据卷参数/var/run/docker.sock,通过此参数在容器内执行docker相关命令,即执行如下命令查询当前服务器的docker数据盘路径:
docker info -f {{.DockerRootDir}}
