Re: [lxc-users] lxd-client on 20.04 focal
If shoving a static binary in your Docker container is an option, it's pretty simple to build the LXD client alone as a static binary. Install "golang-go" and "git", then run "go get github.com/lxc/lxd/lxc". This will take a little while as it downloads the needed source trees. Once done, you'll find a "lxc" binary in ~/go/bin/ which you can start using as standalone client. On Sun, Jul 12, 2020 at 10:45 PM Fajar A.

If it's as simple as "creating a container" or "running lxc shell/lxc exec", IIRC old versions of lxd client (3.03 should still be available on previous distros) can connect to newer lxd server as well -- Fajar ___ lxc-users mailing list lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users
[lxc-users] lxd-client on 20.04 focal
Typically I use lxd-client in jobs that run in docker containers, so the container has the lxd-client apt package installed. Now it seems that the lxd and lxd-client are just shims for the snap. Since it seems like installing snaps in docker (ie. environments without snapd running) is very difficult, I'm curious if any consideration has been given to how lxd-client can be installed aside from snaps? Are there any ppas or something I should be using instead? Thanks, Logan ___ lxc-users mailing list lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users
