Tini - A tiny but valid `init` for containers
|
|
|
|
=============================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/krallin/tini.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/krallin/tini)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tini is the simplest `init` you could think of.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All Tini does is spawn a single child (Tini is meant to be run in a container),
|
|
|
|
and wait for it to exit all the while reaping zombies and performing
|
|
|
|
signal forwarding.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using Tini
|
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*NOTE: There are [pre-built Docker images available for Tini][10]. If
|
|
|
|
you're currently using an Ubuntu or CentOS image as your base, you can use
|
|
|
|
one of those as a drop-in replacement.*
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add Tini to your container, and make it executable. Then, just invoke Tini
|
|
|
|
and pass your program and its arguments as arguments to Tini.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Docker, you will want to use an entrypoint so you don't have to remember
|
|
|
|
to manually invoke Tini:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Add Tini
|
|
|
|
ENV TINI_VERSION v0.4.0
|
|
|
|
ADD https://github.com/krallin/tini/releases/download/${TINI_VERSION}/tini /tini
|
|
|
|
RUN chmod +x /tini
|
|
|
|
ENTRYPOINT ["/tini", "--"]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Run your program under Tini
|
|
|
|
CMD ["/your/program", "-and", "-its", "arguments"]
|
|
|
|
# or docker run your-image /your/program ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that you *can* skip the `--` under certain conditions, but you might
|
|
|
|
as well always include it to be safe. If you see an error message that
|
|
|
|
looks like `tini: invalid option -- 'c'`, then you *need* to add the `--`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Arguments Tini itself are passed like so: `/tini -v -- /your/program`.
|
|
|
|
The only supported argument at this time is `-v`, for extra verbosity (you can
|
|
|
|
pass it up to 4 times, e.g. `-vvvv`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*NOTE: The binary linked above is a 64-bit dynamically-linked binary.*
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Existing Entrypoint ###
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tini can also be used with an existing entrypoint in your container!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Assuming your entrypoint was `/docker-entrypoint.sh`, then you would use:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ENTRYPOINT ["/tini", "--", "/docker-entrypoint.sh"]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Size Considerations ###
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tini is a very small file (in the 10KB range), so it doesn't add much weight
|
|
|
|
to your container.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Building Tini ###
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you'd rather not download the binary, you can build Tini by just running
|
|
|
|
`make` (i.e. there is no `./configure` script).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Understanding Tini
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After spawning your process, Tini will wait for signals and forward those
|
|
|
|
to the child process, and periodically reap zombie processes that may be
|
|
|
|
created within your container.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the "first" child process exits (`/your/program` in the examples above),
|
|
|
|
Tini exits as well, with the exit code of the child process (so you can
|
|
|
|
check your container's exit code to know whether the child exited
|
|
|
|
successfully).
|
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
Debugging
|
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If something isn't working just like you expect, consider increasing the
|
|
|
|
verbosity level (up to 4):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tini -v -- bash -c 'exit 1'
|
|
|
|
tini -vv -- true
|
|
|
|
tini -vvv -- pwd
|
|
|
|
tini -vvvv -- ls
|
|
