This the ``-p`` flag now allows you to bind a port to a specific
interface of the host machine. In this example port ``80`` of the
container will have a dynamically allocated port bound to 127.0.0.1
of the host.
.. code-block:: bash

This will bind port ``80`` of the container to port ``80`` on 127.0.0.1 of your

docker run -expose 80 ubuntu bash
This will expose port ``80`` of the container for use within a link
without publishing the port to the host system's interfaces.
.. code-block:: bash
docker run -link /redis:redis ubuntu bash
The ``-link`` flag will link the container named ``/redis`` into the
newly created container with the alias ``redis``. The new container
can access the network and environment of the redis container via
environment variables.

Linking Redis
=============
.. include:: example_header.inc
Building a redis container to link as a child of our web application.
Building the redis container
----------------------------
We will use a pre-build version of redis from the index under
the name ``crosbymichael/redis``. If you are interested in the
Dockerfile that was used to build this container here it is.
.. code-block:: bash
# Build redis from source
# Make sure you have the redis source code checked out in
# the same directory as this Dockerfile
FROM ubuntu
RUN echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main universe" > /etc/apt/sources.list
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get upgrade -y
RUN apt-get install -y gcc make g++ build-essential libc6-dev tcl
ADD . /redis
RUN (cd /redis && make)
RUN (cd /redis && make test)
RUN mkdir -p /redis-data
VOLUME ["/redis-data"]
EXPOSE 6379
ENTRYPOINT ["/redis/src/redis-server"]
CMD ["--dir", "/redis-data"]
We need to ``EXPOSE`` the default port of 6379 so that our link knows what ports
to connect to our redis container on. If you do not expose any ports for the
image then docker will not be able to establish the link between containers.
Run the redis container
-----------------------
.. code-block:: bash
docker run -d -e PASSWORD=docker crosbymichael/redis --requirepass=docker
This will run our redis container using the default port of 6379 and using
as password to secure our service. Next we will link the redis container to
a new name using ``docker link`` and ``docker ls``.
Linking an existing container
-----------------------------
.. code-block:: bash
docker ls
NAME ID IMAGE
/39588b6a45100ef5b328b2c302ea085624f29e6cbab70f88be04793af02cec89 39588b6a45100ef5b328b2c302ea085624f29e6cbab70f88be04793af02cec89 crosbymichael/redis:latest
Docker will automatically create an initial link with the container's id but
because the is long and not very user friendly we can link the container with
a new name.
.. code-block:: bash
docker link /39588b6a45100ef5b328b2c302ea085624f29e6cbab70f88be04793af02cec89 /redis
docker ls
NAME ID IMAGE
/redis 39588b6a45100ef5b328b2c302ea085624f29e6cbab70f88be04793af02cec89 crosbymichael/redis:latest
/39588b6a45100ef5b328b2c302ea085624f29e6cbab70f88be04793af02cec89 39588b6a45100ef5b328b2c302ea085624f29e6cbab70f88be04793af02cec89 crosbymichael/redis:latest
Now we can reference our running redis service using the friendly name ``/redis``.
We can issue all the commands that you would expect; start, stop, attach, using the new name.
Linking redis as a child
------------------------
Next we can start a new web application that has a dependency on redis and apply a link
to connect both containers. If you noticed when running our redis service we did not use
the ``-p`` option to publish the redis port to the host system. Redis exposed port 6379
but we did not publish the port. This allows docker to prevent all network traffic to
the redis container except when explicitly specified within a link. This is a big win
for security.
Now lets start our web application with a link into redis.
.. code-block:: bash
docker run -t -i -link /redis:db ubuntu bash
root@4c01db0b339c:/# env
HOSTNAME=4c01db0b339c
DB_NAME=/4c01db0b339cf19958731255a796ee072040a652f51652a4ade190ab8c27006f/db
TERM=xterm
DB_PORT=tcp://172.17.0.8:6379
DB_PORT_6379_TCP=tcp://172.17.0.8:6379
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
PWD=/
DB_ENV_PASSWORD=dockerpass
SHLVL=1
HOME=/
container=lxc
_=/usr/bin/env
root@4c01db0b339c:/#
When we inspect the environment of the linked container we can see a few extra environment
variables have been added. When you specified ``-link /redis:db`` you are telling docker
to link the container named ``/redis`` into this new container with the alias ``db``.
Environment variables are prefixed with the alias so that the parent container can access
network and environment information from the child.
.. code-block:: bash
# The name of the child container
DB_NAME=/4c01db0b339cf19958731255a796ee072040a652f51652a4ade190ab8c27006f/db
# The default protocol, ip, and port of the service running in the container
DB_PORT=tcp://172.17.0.8:6379
# A specific protocol, ip, and port of various services
DB_PORT_6379_TCP=tcp://172.17.0.8:6379
# Get environment variables of the container
DB_ENV_PASSWORD=dockerpass
Accessing the network information along with the environment of the child container allows
us to easily connect to the redis service on the specific ip and port and use the password
specified in the environment.
