Hello, have setup my proxmox server since some weeks recently I found that LXC containers could be useful as it really separate all my services in differents containers. Since then I figured out to move my docker’s services from a vm into several LXC containers. I ran into some issues, the first one is that a lot of projects run smoother in docker and doesn’t really have a “normal” way of being package… The second thing is related to the first one, since they are not really well implemented into the OS how can I make the updates?
So I wonder how people are deploying their stuffs on LXC proxmox’s containers?
Thanks for your help!

EDIT : Tried to install docker upon debian LXC but the performances were absolutely terrible…

    So I would have to write some scripts for installing and maintaining my installs?

    (I didn’t know about your “fun fact” :) thx)

      Depends on what you’d want. A dockerfile defines how the image is built. If you want to mimic this then you need scripts.

      But I think you could benefit from learning how docker works from the ground up if you want to recreate docker inages in lxc.

      Better use is a dedicated docker host (a vm) and run your non-docker on lxc. Treat lxc as a minimal vm for one ( or a few) services/apps per lxcontainer

        I wanted to use containers to have good maintained and isolated stuff, so I think I’m going to use scripts to install and update all my stuff 😁
