**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:
```bash
docker pull compact-box
```
### 2. Run the Container

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