## zerotier-docker
|
|
|
|
#### Description
|
|
|
|
This is a container based on a lightweight Alpine Linux image and a copy of ZeroTier One. It's designed to allow you to run ZeroTier One as a service on container-oriented distributions like Fedora CoreOS, though it should work on any Linux system with Docker or Podman.
|
|
|
|
#### Run
|
|
|
|
To run this container in the correct way requires some special options to give it special permissions and allow it to persist its files. Here's an example (tested on Fedora CoreOS):
|
|
|
|
docker run --name zerotier-one --device=/dev/net/tun --net=host \
|
|
--cap-add=NET_ADMIN --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN \
|
|
-v /var/lib/zerotier-one:/var/lib/zerotier-one zyclonite/zerotier
|
|
|
|
|
|
This runs zyclonite/zerotier in a container with special network admin permissions and with access to the host's network stack (no network isolation) and /dev/net/tun to create tun/tap devices. This will allow it to create zt# interfaces on the host the way a copy of ZeroTier One running on the host would normally be able to.
|
|
|
|
In other words that basically does the same thing that running zerotier-one directly on the host would do, except it runs in a container. Since Fedora CoreOS has no package management this is the preferred way of distributing software for it.
|
|
|
|
It also mounts /var/lib/zerotier-one to /var/lib/zerotier-one inside the container, allowing your service container to persist its state across restarts of the container itself. If you don't do this it'll generate a new identity every time. You can put the actual data somewhere other than /var/lib/zerotier-one if you want.

|
To join a zerotier network you can use
|
|
|
|
docker exec zerotier-one zerotier-cli join 8056c2e21c000001
|
|
|
|
|
|
or create an empty file with the network as name
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/zerotier-one/networks.d/8056c2e21c000001.conf
