1) We cannot send "Connection: close", because the fsouza docker client
expects the tcp socket to stay open between requests.
2) Because we cannot force-close the connection, we can't hijack the
connection (because go's net/http doesn't let use un-hijack it).
3) Because we need to maintain the individual chunking of messages (for
docker-py), we can't just copy the response body, as Go will remove and
re-add the chunking willy-nilly.
Therefore, we have to read each chunk one-by-one, and flush the
ResponseWriter after each one.
- Nameserver holds a sorted list of (hostname, peer, container id, ip) tuples.
- Entries are gossiped using topology gossip / broadcast - only new/updated entries
are propogated as expected.
- Entries for a given peer are removed when the connection to the peer is lost.
- Entries are tombstoned when containers die. Tombstones are kept for 10mins,
as they do not need to survive partition, only gossip propagation delay.
Provides to new two new flags: `--hostname-match <regexp>`
and `--hostname-replacement <replacement>`. When launching a container, its name
matched against regular expression `<regexp>`. Then, based on that match,
`<replacement>` will be used to generate a hostname, which will ultimately be
handed over to weaveDNS for registration.
The substitution is implemented with
https://golang.org/pkg/regexp/#Regexp.ReplaceAllString . Thus, references to
regexp substitution groups should be prepended with a dollar sign.
For instance, if we provide `--hostname-match '^aws-[0-9]+-(.*)$'` and
`--hostname-replacement 'my-app-$1'`, running a container named
`aws-12798186823-foo` through WeaveProxy will lead to WeaveDNS registering
`my-app-foo`.
Closes#1018
Adds a --no-rewrite-hosts flag to the proxy, and be default, removes the
docker IP from hosts. We only discard the docker host when it exists, so
--net=none works.
The go docker client's ErrNoSuchImage does not include the image
name. However, it is imperative that this name appears in error
messages sent to clients, since the docker client, as of version
1.7.0, only automatically pulls images when their name is present in
the error.
Fixes#967.
Tells the proxy not to do anything with this container. We set it when
running weaveexec/weave/etc containers, so that the weave script works
through the proxy.
