Enter into stdin of the running Docker container

Overview

Hello, this is haniokasai. When docker attach with Docker, only pid 1 can be operated interactively. [^ 1] Usually that's not a problem, but I'm in trouble. In my container the Dockerfile calls a shell script, which runs PHP CGI. In that case, php's pid is not 1, so there is no way to enter it. (You can see the output with attach.) So I entered it directly into stdin.

environment

Host to container stdin

Caution You can do docker attach, but don't make it interactive. If so, stdin returns "Text file busy" and does not hold. When attaching, do as follows. (In this case, attach does not receive stdin. You can choose either attach or direct file input.)

attach


docker -H DOCKERHOST attach container name--no-stdin

First, check the pid of the standard input destination on top.

# docker top zzzzzzzz_container
UID                 PID                 PPID                C                   STIME               TTY                 TIME                CMD
root                25312               25287               0                   16:09               ?                   00:00:00            /bin/sh -c sh /minecraft/resources/run-Main.sh
root                25366               25312               0                   16:10               ?                   00:00:00            sh /minecraft/resources/run-Main.sh
root                25434               25366               0                   16:10               ?                   00:00:00            sh /minecraft/resources/run-BE-BDS.sh
root                25472               25434               13                  16:10               ?                   00:14:22            /minecraft/bin/bedrock_server

Execute standard input with a command

# echo "help" > /proc/25472/fd/0

If you type help into bedrock_server as standard, help will be returned properly.

# docker logs zzzzzzzz_container --tail=10

Container to container stdin

Create source container

docker create --name container name--memory=3500mb --network="host" --storage-opt size=2G  --cap-add SYS_PTRACE  -v /proc:/newproc:ro

The point of interest is

--Add SYS_PTRACE authority --Mount / proc on host as / newproc read-only

The rest is the same as before.

In the container


# echo "help" > /newproc/25472/fd/0

Library made using

I made it with @itsu_dev. It will be interesting because Itsukun scrapes the top.
