nerdctl directory layout

Data

<DATAROOT>

Default: /var/lib/nerdctl (rootful), ~/.local/share/nerdctl (rootless)

Can be overridden with nerdctl --data-root=<DATAROOT> flag.

The directory is solely managed by nerdctl, not by containerd. The directory has nothing to do with containerd data root /var/lib/containerd.

<DATAROOT>/<ADDRHASH>

e.g. /var/lib/nerdctl/1935db59

1935db9 is from $(echo -n "/run/containerd/containerd.sock" | sha256sum | cut -c1-8)

This directory is also called "data store" in the implementation.

<DATAROOT>/<ADDRHASH>/containers/<NAMESPACE>/<CID>

e.g. /var/lib/nerdctl/1935db59/containers/default/c4ed811cc361d26faffdee8d696ddbc45a9d93c571b5b3c54d3da01cb29caeb1

Files:

  • resolv.conf: mounted to the container as /etc/resolv.conf
  • <CID>-json.log: used by nerdctl logs
  • oci-hook.*.log: logs of the OCI hook

<DATAROOT>/<ADDRHASH>/names/<NAMESPACE>

e.g. /var/lib/nerdctl/1935db59/names/default

Files:

  • <NAME>: contains the container ID (CID). Represents that the name is taken by that container.

Files must be operated with a LOCK_EX lock against the <DATAROOT>/<ADDRHASH>/names/<NAMESPACE> directory.

<DATAROOT>/<ADDRHASH>/etchosts/<NAMESPACE>/<CID>

e.g. /var/lib/nerdctl/1935db59/etchosts/default/c4ed811cc361d26faffdee8d696ddbc45a9d93c571b5b3c54d3da01cb29caeb1

Files:

  • hosts: mounted to the container as /etc/hosts
  • meta.json: metadata

Files must be operated with a LOCK_EX lock against the <DATAROOT>/<ADDRHASH>/etchosts directory.

<DATAROOT>/<ADDRHASH>/volumes/<NAMESPACE>/<VOLNAME>/_data

e.g. /var/lib/nerdctl/1935db59/volumes/default/foo/_data

Data volume

CNI

<NETCONFPATH>

Default: /etc/cni/net.d (rootful), ~/.config/cni/net.d (rootless)

Can be overriden with nerdctl --cni-netconfpath=<NETCONFPATH> flag and environment variable $NETCONFPATH.

Files:

  • nerdctl-<NWNAME>.conflist: CNI conf list created by nerdctl
