The Pot task driver provides an interface for using pot for dynamically running applications inside a FreeBSD Jail. You can download the external nomad-pot-driver here.

Task Configuration

task "nginx-pot" {    driver = "pot"    config {      image = "https://pot-registry.zapto.org/registry/"      pot = "FBSD120-nginx"      tag = "1.0"      command = "nginx"      args = [        "-g 'daemon off;'"      ]      network_mode = "public-bridge"      port_map = {        http = "80"      }      copy = [        "/root/index.html:/usr/local/www/nginx-dist/index.html",        "/root/nginx.conf:/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf"      ]      mount = [        "/tmp/test:/root/test",      ]      mount_read_only = [        "/tmp/test2:/root/test2"      ]      extra_hosts = [        "artifactory.yourdomain.com:192.168.0.1",        "mail.yourdomain.com:192.168.0.2"      ]   }}

The pot task driver supports the following parameters:

• image - The url for the http registry from where to get the image.

• pot - Name of the image in the registry.

• tag - Version of the image.

• command - Command that is going to be executed once the jail is started.

• args - (Optional) List of options for the command executed on the command argument.

• network_mode - (Optional) Defines the network mode of the pot. Default: "public-bridge"

  Possible values are:

  "public-bridge" pot creates an internal virtual network with a NAT table where all traffic is going to be sent.

  "host" pot bounds the jail directly to a host port.

• port_map - (Optional) Sets the port on which the application is listening inside of the jail. If not set, the application will inherit the port configuration from the image.

• copy - (Optional) Copies a file from the host machine to the pot jail in the given directory.

• mount - (Optional) Mounts a read/write folder from the host machine to the pot jail.

• mount_read_only - (Optional) Mounts a read only directory inside the pot jail.

• extra_hosts - (Optional) A list of hosts, given as host:IP, to be added to /etc/hosts
