contrib/dockerd-rootless.sh

#!/bin/sh
# dockerd-rootless.sh executes dockerd in rootless mode.
#
# Usage: dockerd-rootless.sh --experimental [DOCKERD_OPTIONS]
# Currently, specifying --experimental is mandatory.
# Also, to expose ports, you need to specify
# --userland-proxy-path=/path/to/rootlesskit-docker-proxy
#
# External dependencies:
# * newuidmap and newgidmap needs to be installed.
# * /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid needs to be configured for the current user.
# * Either one of slirp4netns (v0.3+), VPNKit, lxc-user-nic needs to be installed.
#   slirp4netns is used by default if installed. Otherwise fallsback to VPNKit.
#   The default value can be overridden with $DOCKERD_ROOTLESS_ROOTLESSKIT_NET=(slirp4netns|vpnkit|lxc-user-nic)
#
# See the documentation for the further information.
