Container creation #5

Open olivierlambert opened 9 years ago

olivierlambert commented 9 years ago

Hi there!

We started to use this plugin in XO for displaying containers and offer life cycle actions on them.

Our next step is the VM "docker management ready" creation, and the step after that will be container creation.

Question: is it planned to create containers from this host plugin?

Yes, I'd definitely like to see a XenServer API for the creation of containers. The challenge will be that container creation comes with a range of dependencies such as image management. Before approaching this, I think we ought to put more thought into the API basics. It is questions, such as whether the container API should be implemented in a plugin going forward or directly in XAPI.

Copy that. If there is any chance to follow the discussion about that somewhere, I'm in!
