## About Weaveworks
|
||||
|
||||
[Weaveworks](https://www.weave.works) is the company that delivers the most productive way for developers to connect, observe and control Docker containers.
|
||||
Weaveworks created many innovative products and services around containers, Kubernetes and the cloud. They were pioneers in CNI networking and GitOps.
|
||||
|
||||
This repository contains [Weave Net](https://www.weave.works/products/weave-net/), the first product developed by Weaveworks, with over 8 million downloads to date. Weave Net enables you to get started with Docker clusters and portable apps in a fraction of the time required by other solutions.

# Weave Net
|
||||
Weave Net creates a virtual network that connects containers across multiple hosts and enables their automatic discovery. With Weave Net, portable microservices-based applications consisting of multiple containers can run anywhere: on one host, multiple hosts or even across cloud providers and data centers. Applications use the network just as if the containers were all plugged into the same network switch, without having to configure port mappings, ambassadors or links. Weave Net is also available as a CNI plugin, which allows it to provide container networking on Kubernetes clusters.

|
||||
## History of the ReWeave project
|
||||
|
||||
Services provided by application containers on the Weave network can be exposed to the outside world, regardless of where they are running. Similarly, existing internal systems can be opened to accept connections from application containers irrespective of their location.
|
||||
In June 2022, Weave Net had not been updated for a year. Problems were starting to appear in the field. In particular, the last published images on the Docker Hub had issues supporting multiple processor architectures, and security scanners showed multiple vulnerabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
## <a name="help"></a>Getting help
|
||||
A call went out from Weaveworks to get the community more involved in maintaining it. After some discussion on GitHub issues and e-mail, and even a few online meetings, things were not moving forward. Finally, in March 2023, this fork was created, with the following goals in mind:
|
||||
|
||||
If you have any questions about, feedback for or a problem with Weave Net:
|
||||
* Update dependencies, especially ones with security vulnerabilities
|
||||
* Make minimal code changes _only_ when required by updating dependencies
|
||||
* Create true multi-arch images using modern tools
|
||||
* Create a new build process to automate all this
|
||||
|
||||
- Read [the Weave Net docs](https://www.weave.works/docs/net/latest/overview).
|
||||
- Invite yourself to the <a href="https://slack.weave.works/" target="_blank">Weave Users Slack</a>.
|
||||
- The channel for contributors and developers of Weave Net is [#net-dev](https://weave-community.slack.com/messages/net-dev/).
|
||||
- Join the <a href="https://www.meetup.com/pro/Weave/"> Weave User Group </a> and get invited to online talks, hands-on training and meetups in your area.
|
||||
- [File an issue](https://github.com/weaveworks/weave/issues/new).
|
||||
These goals were achieved. Details can be found in the [reweave](reweave/README.md) directory. A pull request was submitted on the weaveworks repo, with the aim of getting a new official release out.
|
||||
|
||||
We follow the [CNCF Code of Conduct](code-of-conduct.md).
|
||||
On February 5th, 2024, Weaveworks CEO Alexis Richardson announced via [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/richardsonalexis_hi-everyone-i-am-very-sad-to-announce-activity-7160295096825860096-ZS67/) and [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monadic/status/1754530336120140116) that Weaveworks is winding down.
|
||||
|
||||
Your feedback is always welcome!
|
||||
So, this fork will now be maintained independently.
|
||||
|
||||
## Further Information
|
||||
## New Goals
|
||||
|
||||
* [Installing Weave Net](https://www.weave.works/docs/net/latest/install/installing-weave)
|
||||
* [Weave Net Product Overview](https://www.weave.works/products/weave-net)
|
||||
The old goals, listed above, remain the priority. In addition, this project aims to:
|
||||
|
||||
* Remove dependencies on Weaveworks infrastructure, starting with telemetry
|
||||
* Publish new releases regularly
|
||||
* Provide supporting infrastructure, such as weave's famous one-line installation, where possible
