Sandbox provides the control over the network container entity. It is a one to one mapping with the container.
Endpoint represents a logical connection between a network and a sandbox.
A Network represents a logical connectivity zone that containers mayjoin using the Link method. A Network is managed by a specific driver.
Package libnetwork provides the basic functionality and extension points to
create network namespaces and allocate interfaces for containers to use.
networkType := "bridge"
// Create a new controller instance
driverOptions := options.Generic{}
genericOption := make(map[string]interface{})
genericOption[netlabel.GenericData] = driverOptions
controller, err := libnetwork.New(config.OptionDriverConfig(networkType, genericOption))
if err != nil {
return
}
// Create a network for containers to join.
// NewNetwork accepts Variadic optional arguments that libnetwork and Drivers can make use of
network, err := controller.NewNetwork(networkType, "network1")
if err != nil {
return
}
// For each new container: allocate IP and interfaces. The returned network
// settings will be used for container infos (inspect and such), as well as
// iptables rules for port publishing. This info is contained or accessible
// from the returned endpoint.
ep, err := network.CreateEndpoint("Endpoint1")
if err != nil {
return
}
// Create the sandbox for the container.
// NewSandbox accepts Variadic optional arguments which libnetwork can use.
sbx, err := controller.NewSandbox("container1",
libnetwork.OptionHostname("test"),
libnetwork.OptionDomainname("docker.io"))
// A sandbox can join the endpoint via the join api.
err = ep.Join(sbx)
if err != nil {
return
}
