I have 2 images on Docker Registry, so my requirement is to create Debian package to pull those 2 images and run on the installed machine. My problem is if I want to use Docker command, Docker should be installed in the given machine. So Docker install already, then we can use it. Otherwise I have to install it when I install that Debian Package.
My DEBIAN/control
file look like this,
Package: bla-bla
Version: 1.0
Architecture: all
Priority: optional
Maintainer: Bla Bla <[email protected]>
Installed-Size: 327000
Depends: unzip, curl, sqlite3, libsqlite3-dev, xdg-utils, apt-transport-https, ca-certificates, software-properties-common
Homepage: https://www.example.com/
Section: Network, Databases, Web Servers, JavaScript, Python;
Description: bla bla bla
I added Docker
and docker
for Depends
time to time, but it didn't work. so I added below lines to the preinst
file,
function check_whether_docker_installed() {
service=docker
is_running=$(ps aux | grep -v grep | grep -v "$0" | grep $service | wc -l | awk '{print $1}')
if [ $is_running != "0" ]; then
echo -e "\nservice $service is running"
else
initd=$(ls /etc/init.d/ | grep $service | wc -l | awk '{ print $1 }')
if [ $initd = "1" ]; then
startup=$(ls /etc/init.d/ | grep $service)
echo -e "\nStarting Docker service"
/etc/init.d/${startup} start
echo "Docker service successfully started"
else
echo -e "\nService $service not yet installed, going to install it"
sudo apt update
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic stable"
sudo apt update
apt-cache policy docker-ce
sudo apt install -y docker-ce
sudo chmod +x /var/run/docker.sock
echo "Docker successfully installed, let's check it again"
check_whether_docker_installed
fi
fi
}
function download_and_install_docker_compose() {
which docker-compose
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo -e "\ndocker-compose is installed!"
else
echo -e "\ndocker-compose is not installed!"
sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.27.3/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
echo "docker-compose is successfully installed, let's check it again"
download_and_install_docker_compose
fi
}
check_whether_docker_installed
download_and_install_docker_compose
sudo apt install -y docker-ce
this line wasn't able to run. It gave me below error.
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it?
chmod: cannot access '/var/run/docker.sock': No such file or directory
Yes I know this happens because I'm running sudo apt install my_package.deb
to install my package already, so cannot run another sudo apt install
command inside my package. How can I sort it out this problem? This should be one time process.
Why don't you just add
docker.io
to the list of required packages?This is of course not the
docker-ce
, but you cannot useapt-get
inside aDEBIAN/control
script. Package dependencies can only be handled with theDepends
options.You can also add
docker-ce
to theDepends
list, but the package installation will fail, ifdocker-ce
is not registered in the local system.
