Description

An image using dinit for service supervision.

It includes also regex2json binary to make it easier to transform non-JSON output to JSON. It has also runit binaries installed (e.g., you can use svlogd to store service's stdout into a log file and rotate it).

It can serve as a good base image for other Docker images.

It sets Docker image entrypoint so dinit is run automatically.

By default dinit expects that all programs/services it manages output to their stdout logging in JSON while stderr can be unstructured. dinit then multiplexes output from all programs/services to container's stdout and stderr. dinit outputs own errors to container's stderr, too. In Docker, by default, container's stdout and stderr are retrievable using docker logs.

In short, to create a service create /etc/service/<name>/run script which at the end execs into the service executable you want to run (and supervise to keep running).

GitHub mirror

There is also a read-only GitHub mirror available, if you need to fork the project there.
