QuickStart Instructions

The quick start instructions will guide in creating a docker network with PLUMgrid libnetwork plugin and then launch docker containers onto that network.

• Start the docker daemon

$ docker daemon

• create a go workspace

$ mkdir $HOME/work

• export GOPATH environment variable

$ export GOPATH=$HOME/work

add workspace’s bin subdirectory to your path

$ export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin

• clone the PLUMgrid libnetwork plugin repo

$ git clone https://github.com/plumgrid/libnetwork-plugin.git $GOPATH/src/github.com/libnetwork-plugin/

• move to plugin directory and make binaries

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/libnetwork-plugin/
$ make

• now run the PLUMgrid libnetwork plugin

$ sudo mkdir -p /run/docker/plugins
$ ./plugins/plumgrid

• create a network using PLUMgrid driver

$ docker network create --subnet=10.0.0.0/24 -d plumgrid net1

• create a network on specific domain

$ docker network create --subnet=10.0.0.0/24 -d plumgrid -o domain=domainID net1

• create a docker container onto that network

$ docker run -itd --name=cont1 --net=net1 busybox

run several containers, and verify they can ping each other
