# <a name="runtimeAndLifecycle" />Runtime and Lifecycle
|
|
|
|
## <a name="runtimeScopeContainer" />Scope of a Container
|
|
|
|
The entity using a runtime to create a container MUST be able to use the operations defined in this specification against that same container.
|
|
Whether other entities using the same, or other, instance of the runtime can see that container is out of scope of this specification.
|
|
|
|
## <a name="runtimeState" />State
|
|
|
|
The state of a container includes the following properties:
|
|
|
|
* **`ociVersion`** (string, REQUIRED) is the OCI specification version used when creating the container.
|
|
* **`id`** (string, REQUIRED) is the container's ID.
|
|
This MUST be unique across all containers on this host.
|
|
There is no requirement that it be unique across hosts.
|
|
* **`status`** (string, REQUIRED) is the runtime state of the container.
|
|
The value MAY be one of:
|
|
|
|
* `creating`: the container is being created (step 2 in the [lifecycle](#lifecycle))
|
|
* `created`: the runtime has finished the [create operation](#create) (after step 2 in the [lifecycle](#lifecycle)), and the container process has neither exited nor executed the user-specified program
|
|
* `running`: the container process has executed the user-specified program but has not exited (after step 5 in the [lifecycle](#lifecycle))
|
|
* `stopped`: the container process has exited (step 7 in the [lifecycle](#lifecycle))
|
|
|
|
Additional values MAY be defined by the runtime, however, they MUST be used to represent new runtime states not defined above.
|
|
* **`pid`** (int, REQUIRED when `status` is `created` or `running` on Linux, OPTIONAL on other platforms) is the ID of the container process, as seen by the host.
|
|
* **`bundle`** (string, REQUIRED) is the absolute path to the container's bundle directory.
|
|
This is provided so that consumers can find the container's configuration and root filesystem on the host.
|
|
* **`annotations`** (map, OPTIONAL) contains the list of annotations associated with the container.
|
|
If no annotations were provided then this property MAY either be absent or an empty map.
|
|
|
|
The state MAY include additional properties.
|
|
|
|
When serialized in JSON, the format MUST adhere to the following pattern:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"ociVersion": "0.2.0",
|
|
"id": "oci-container1",
|
|
"status": "running",
|
|
"pid": 4422,
|
|
"bundle": "/containers/redis",
|
|
"annotations": {
|
|
"myKey": "myValue"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See [Query State](#query-state) for information on retrieving the state of a container.
|
|
|
|
## <a name="runtimeLifecycle" />Lifecycle
|
|
The lifecycle describes the timeline of events that happen from when a container is created to when it ceases to exist.
|
|
|
|
1. OCI compliant runtime's [`create`](runtime.md#create) command is invoked with a reference to the location of the bundle and a unique identifier.
|
|
2. The container's runtime environment MUST be created according to the configuration in [`config.json`](config.md).
|
|
If the runtime is unable to create the environment specified in the [`config.json`](config.md), it MUST [generate an error](#errors).
|
|
While the resources requested in the [`config.json`](config.md) MUST be created, the user-specified program (from [`process`](config.md#process)) MUST NOT be run at this time.
|
|
Any updates to [`config.json`](config.md) after this step MUST NOT affect the container.
|
|
3. Runtime's [`start`](runtime.md#start) command is invoked with the unique identifier of the container.
|
|
4. The [prestart hooks](config.md#prestart) MUST be invoked by the runtime.
|
|
If any prestart hook fails, the runtime MUST [generate an error](#errors), stop the container, and continue the lifecycle at step 9.
|
|
5. The runtime MUST run the user-specified program, as specified by [`process`](config.md#process).
|
|
6. The [poststart hooks](config.md#poststart) MUST be invoked by the runtime.
|
|
If any poststart hook fails, the runtime MUST [log a warning](#warnings), but the remaining hooks and lifecycle continue as if the hook had succeeded.
|
|
7. The container process exits.
|
|
This MAY happen due to erroring out, exiting, crashing or the runtime's [`kill`](runtime.md#kill) operation being invoked.
|
|
8. Runtime's [`delete`](runtime.md#delete) command is invoked with the unique identifier of the container.
|
|
9. The container MUST be destroyed by undoing the steps performed during create phase (step 2).
|
|
10. The [poststop hooks](config.md#poststop) MUST be invoked by the runtime.
|
|
If any poststop hook fails, the runtime MUST [log a warning](#warnings), but the remaining hooks and lifecycle continue as if the hook had succeeded.
|
|
|
|
## <a name="runtimeErrors" />Errors
|
|
|
|
In cases where the specified operation generates an error, this specification does not mandate how, or even if, that error is returned or exposed to the user of an implementation.
|
|
Unless otherwise stated, generating an error MUST leave the state of the environment as if the operation were never attempted - modulo any possible trivial ancillary changes such as logging.
|
|
|
|
## <a name="runtimeWarnings" />Warnings
|
|
|
|
In cases where the specified operation logs a warning, this specification does not mandate how, or even if, that warning is returned or exposed to the user of an implementation.
|
|
Unless otherwise stated, logging a warning does not change the flow of the operation; it MUST continue as if the warning had not been logged.
|
|
|
|
## <a name="runtimeOperations" />Operations
|
|
|
|
Unless otherwise stated, runtimes MUST support the following operations.
|
|
|
|
Note: these operations are not specifying any command-line APIs, and the parameters are inputs for general operations.
|
|
|
|
### <a name="runtimeQueryState" />Query State
|
|
|
|
`state <container-id>`
|
|
|
|
This operation MUST [generate an error](#errors) if it is not provided the ID of a container.
|
|
Attempting to query a container that does not exist MUST [generate an error](#errors).
|
|
This operation MUST return the state of a container as specified in the [State](#state) section.
|
|
|
|
### <a name="runtimeCreate" />Create
|
|
|
|
`create <container-id> <path-to-bundle>`
|
|
|
|
This operation MUST [generate an error](#errors) if it is not provided a path to the bundle and the container ID to associate with the container.
|
|
If the ID provided is not unique across all containers within the scope of the runtime, or is not valid in any other way, the implementation MUST [generate an error](#errors) and a new container MUST NOT be created.
|
|
This operation MUST create a new container.
|
|
|
|
All of the properties configured in [`config.json`](config.md) except for [`process`](config.md#process) MUST be applied.
|
|
[`process.args`](config.md#process) MUST NOT be applied until triggered by the [`start`](#start) operation.
|
|
The remaining `process` properties MAY be applied by this operation.
|
|
If the runtime cannot apply a property as specified in the [configuration](config.md), it MUST [generate an error](#errors) and a new container MUST NOT be created.
|
|
|
|
The runtime MAY validate `config.json` against this spec, either generically or with respect to the local system capabilities, before creating the container ([step 2](#lifecycle)).
|
|
Runtime callers who are interested in pre-create validation can run [bundle-validation tools](implementations.md#testing--tools) before invoking the create operation.
|
|
|
|
Any changes made to the [`config.json`](config.md) file after this operation will not have an effect on the container.
|
|
|
|
### <a name="runtimeStart" />Start
|
|
`start <container-id>`
|
|
|
|
This operation MUST [generate an error](#errors) if it is not provided the container ID.
|
|
Attempting to `start` a container that is not [`created`](#state) MUST have no effect on the container and MUST [generate an error](#errors).
|
|
This operation MUST run the user-specified program as specified by [`process`](config.md#process).
|
|
This operation MUST generate an error if `process` was not set.
|
|
|
|
### <a name="runtimeKill" />Kill
|
|
`kill <container-id> <signal>`
|
|
|
|
This operation MUST [generate an error](#errors) if it is not provided the container ID.
|
|
Attempting to send a signal to a container that is neither [`created` nor `running`](#state) MUST have no effect on the container and MUST [generate an error](#errors).
|
|
This operation MUST send the specified signal to the container process.
|
|
|
|
### <a name="runtimeDelete" />Delete
|
|
`delete <container-id>`
|
|
|
|
This operation MUST [generate an error](#errors) if it is not provided the container ID.
|
|
Attempting to `delete` a container that is not [`stopped`](#state) MUST have no effect on the container and MUST [generate an error](#errors).
|
|
Deleting a container MUST delete the resources that were created during the `create` step.
|
|
Note that resources associated with the container, but not created by this container, MUST NOT be deleted.
|
|
Once a container is deleted its ID MAY be used by a subsequent container.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## <a name="runtimeHooks" />Hooks
|
|
Many of the operations specified in this specification have "hooks" that allow for additional actions to be taken before or after each operation.
|
|
See [runtime configuration for hooks](./config.md#posix-platform-hooks) for more information.
