ya-runtime-vm

ya-runtime-vm is an implementation of a Docker-like runtime environment for Linux systems.

This repository consists of 2 crates:

ya-runtime-vm

An application for running Virtual Machine images pre-built for yagna.
gvmkit

A tool for converting Docker images into yagna Virtual Machine images and uploading them to a public repository. Requires for Docker to be installed on your system.

Building

Prerequisites:

rustc

Recommendation: use the Rust toolchain installer from https://rustup.rs/
musl-gcc and gperf

On a Ubuntu system, execute in terminal:
```
   sudo apt install musl musl-tools gperf
```

Git checkout:

Init runtime/init-container/liburing submodule.

git submodule init
git submodule update

Building:

cd runtime
cargo build

Installing

Prerequisites:

cargo-deb

Cargo helper command which automatically creates binary Debian packages. With Rust already installed, execute in terminal:
```
cargo install cargo-deb
```

Installation:

In terminal, change the working directory to runtime and install a freshly minted Debian package.

cd runtime
sudo dpkg -i $(cargo deb | tail -n1)

This will install the binary at /usr/lib/yagna/plugins/ya-runtime-vm/ya-runtime-vm.

Caveats

Docker VOLUME command

Directories specified in the VOLUME command are a mountpoint for directories on the host filesystem. Contents of those directories will appear as empty during execution.

If you need to place static assets inside the image, try not to use the VOLUME command for that directory.
