# Nspawn Driver
|
|
|
|
Name: `nspawn`
|
|
|
|
The `nspawn` driver provides an interface for using Systemd-Nspawn for running application
|
|
containers. You can download the external Systemd-Nspawn driver [here][nspawn-driver]. For more detailed instructions on how to set up and use this driver, please refer to the [guide][nspawn-guide].
|
|
|
|
## Task Configuration
|
|
|
|
```hcl
|
|
task "debian" {
|
|
driver = "nspawn"
|
|
config {
|
|
image = "/var/lib/machines/Debian"
|
|
resolv_conf = "copy-host"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `nspawn` driver supports the following configuration in the job spec:
|
|
|
|
* [`boot`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-nspawn.html#-b) -
|
|
(Optional) `true` (default) or `false`. Search for an init program and invoke
|
|
it as PID 1. Arguments specified in `command` will be used as arguments for
|
|
the init program.
|
|
* [`ephemeral`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-nspawn.html#-x) -
|
|
(Optional) `true` or `false` (default). Make an ephemeral copy of the image
|
|
before staring the container.
|
|
* [`process_two`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-nspawn.html#-a) -
|
|
(Optional) `true` or `false` (default). Start the command specified with
|
|
`command` as PID 2, using a minimal stub init as PID 1.

|
|
(Optional) `true` or `false` (default). Mount the used image as read only.
|
|
* [`user_namespacing`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-nspawn.html#-U) -

|
|

|
|
[image](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-nspawn.html#-i)
|
|
or block device or the name of an image registered with

|
|

|
|
|
|
```hcl

|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
* [`bind_read_only`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-nspawn.html#--bind=) -
|
|
(Optional) Files or directories to bind mount read only inside the container.
|
|
|
|
```hcl

|
|
in the [docker
|
|
driver][docker_driver].
|
|
**Note:** `systemd-nspawn` will not expose ports to the loopback interface of
|
|
your host.
|
|
|
|
```hcl
|
|
config {
|
|
port_map {
|
|
http = 80
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
(Optional) `no` (default), `signature` or `checksum`. Whether to verify the
|
|
image before making it available.
|
|
* `force` - (Optional) `true` or `false` (default) If a local copy already
|
|
exists, delete it first and replace it by the newly downloaded image.
|
|
* `type` - (Optional) `tar` (default) or `raw`. The type of image to download.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Networking
|
|
|
|
The `nspawn` driver has support for host networking and also bridge mode
|
|
networking. It can therefore be used with Nomad's [Consul Connect
|
|
integration][consul_connect_integration].
|
|
|
|
## Client Requirements
|
|
|
|
The `nspawn` driver requires the following:
|
|
|
|
* 64-bit Linux host
|
|
* The `linux_amd64` Nomad binary
|
|
* The Nspawn driver binary placed in the [plugin_dir][plugin_dir] directory.
|
|
* `systemd-nspawn` to be installed
|
|
* Nomad running with root privileges
|
|
|
|
## Plugin Options
|
|
|
|
* `enabled` - The `nspawn` driver may be disabled on hosts by setting this option to `false` (defaults to `true`).
|
|
* `volumes` - Enable support for Volumes in the driver (defaults to `true`).
|
|
|
|
An example of using these plugin options with the new [plugin
|
|
syntax][plugin] is shown below:
|
|
|
|
```hcl
|
|
plugin "nspawn" {
|
|
config {
|
|
enabled = true
|
|
volumes = true
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Client Attributes
|
|
|
|
The `nspawn` driver will set the following client attributes:
|
|
|
|
* `driver.nspawn` - Set to `true` if Systemd-Nspawn is found and enabled on the
|
|
host node and Nomad is running with root privileges.
|
|
* `driver.nspawn.version` - Version of `systemd-nspawn` e.g.: `244`.
