Compact Box Docker Image README

Overview

The Compact Box Docker image is designed to simplify file operations and examination of volume contents. This image is built on top of the official Alpine Linux image and includes a set of essential tools for file management.

Usage

To use the Compact Box Docker image, follow these steps:

1. Pull the Image

First, pull the Compact Box Docker image from the registry:

docker pull compact-box

2. Run the Container

Run a new container from the image, mounting a volume at /mnt:

docker run -it --rm --name compact -v nc4_files:/mnt compact-box

Replace nc4_files with the name of your volume.

3. Access the Container

You will be logged into the container as the root user. You can now perform file operations and examine the contents of the volume at /mnt.

Tools Included

The Compact Box Docker image includes the following tools:

• bash: The Bourne-Again SHell
• wget: A command-line utility for downloading files from the web
• rsync: A command-line utility for synchronizing files and directories
• mc: The Midnight Commander file manager
• sudo: A command-line utility for running commands with superuser privileges
• vim: A text editor
• zip: A command-line utility for compressing and decompressing files
• curl: A command-line utility for transferring data to and from a web server

Volume Configuration

The image configures the /mnt directory with the following permissions:

chmod 755 /mnt

This allows the container to read and write files in the volume.

Default Command

The default command for the container is bash, which logs you into the container as the root user.

Example Use Cases

• Examine the contents of a volume: docker run -it --rm --name compact -v nc4_files:/mnt compact-box
• Copy files from the volume to the host machine: docker run -it --rm --name compact -v nc4_files:/mnt compact-box rsync -av /mnt/ /host/path/
• Download a file from the web and save it to the volume: docker run -it --rm --name compact -v nc4_files:/mnt compact-box wget -O /mnt/file.txt http://example.com/file.txt
