Previously, the proxy would run the weave script in ways that did
not run the weaver executable. Now they can. This is a problem because
of the contortions involved in using golang's code coverage support
in the integration tests, which require the weaver command line args to
be slightly mangled.
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.
It's ugly, but beats arg-parsing, inspecting the container and piecing
the address together from exposed ports.
We could just use the host from DOCKER_HOST, but that will fail in the
case of a host with multiple IPs, where the proxy only listens on one.
There are two problems with obtaining the proxy status via the normal
proxy endpoint...
1. when TLS is enabled, this requires using TLS at the client end
2. the status URL is mixed in with the docker remote API, which is
rather unclean
There is limited value to having some status output from the proxy,
since all the output is constant.
So instead we log the version and command line args, and in `weave
status` only report whether the proxy is running.
We still want a way to wait for the proxy to start up, and log a nice
error if it dies. We do this by polling the docker logs for a startup
message.
Fixes#877. Fixes#876.
Undoes most of #756, #800, #854.
