|
|
+With the use of *Linux Containers* (LXC_) we can scale our tasks over a stack of
|
|
|
+containers, what we call the: *lxc suite*. Before you can start with
|
|
|
+containers, you need to install and initiate LXD_ once::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ $ snap install lxd
|
|
|
+ $ lxd init --auto
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The *searx suite* (:origin:`lxc-searx.env <utils/lxc-searx.env>`) is loaded by
|
|
|
+default, every time you start the ``lxc.sh`` script (you do not need to care
|
|
|
+about). To make use of the containers from the *searx suite*, you have to build
|
|
|
+the :ref:`LXC suite containers <lxc.sh --help>` first. But be warned, this
|
|
|
+might take some time::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ $ sudo -H ./utils/lxc.sh build
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+A cup of coffee later, your LXC suite is build up and you can run whatever task
|
|
|
+you want / in a selected or even in all :ref:`LXC suite containers <lxc.sh
|
|
|
+--help>`. Each container shares the root folder of the repository and the
|
|
|
+command ``utils/lxc.sh cmd`` handles relative path names *transparent*::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ $ sudo -H ./utils/lxc.sh cmd -- ls -la Makefile
|
|
|
+ ...
|
|
|
+ [searx-ubu2004] -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7603 Mar 30 11:54 Makefile
|
|
|
+ [searx-fedora31] -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7603 Mar 30 11:54 Makefile
|
|
|
+ [searx-archlinux] -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7603 Mar 30 11:54 Makefile
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+With this in mind, you can run :ref:`searx.sh` and install packages, needed by
|
|
|
+searx::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ $ sudo -H ./utils/lxc.sh cmd -- ./utils/searx.sh install packages
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+And run one of the :origin:`Makefile` targets::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ $ sudo -H ./utils/lxc.sh cmd -- make test.sh
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+You can install a *buildhost environment* into the containers (time for another
|
|
|
+cup of coffee)::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ $ sudo -H ./utils/lxc.sh install buildhost
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If you want to get rid off all the containers, just type::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ $ sudo -H ./utils/lxc.sh remove
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To clean up your local images use::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ $ sudo -H ./utils/lxc.sh remove images
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.. _lxc.sh --help:

|
+Overview
|
|
|
+========
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The ``--help`` output of the script is largely self-explanatory:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.. program-output:: ../utils/lxc.sh --help
