So it has not "moved" to docker.<div><br></div><div>I have studied docker source code, and there is nothing they do you can't do using LXC and basic bash commands (except for their repository). You can think about docker as a wrapper of LXC serving the purpose of process isolation for the cloud computing world.</div><div><br></div><div>Both LXC and docker have different end goals so it's hard to compare them. One thing: docker doesn't use template explicitly but images pulled by docker are basically images created by a LXC template. So docker replaced lxc-create (that generate an OS) by docker pull (that go get an OS over the network)</div><div><br><div><div>On Jul 26, 2013, at 8:11 PM, Bretton Woods <<a href="mailto:woods.bretton@yahoo.co.uk">woods.bretton@yahoo.co.uk</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-size: 12pt; "><div style="font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-size: 12pt;">There is one thing about Docker that I really, really like and my main question is why has it moved to docker when it should be a native LXC command</div><div style="font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br></div><div style="background-color: transparent;"><font face="times new roman, new york, times, serif">lxc-create --pull git -n name</font><br></div><div style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; "><font face="times new roman, new york, times, serif">lxc-clone --push git -n name</font></div><div style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16px; font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-style: normal; "><font face="times new roman, new york, times, serif"><br></font></div><div style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16px; font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-style: normal; "><font face="times new roman, new york, times, serif">I think you get it whatever the semantics.
