Is there a Docker equivalent for FreeBSD? Jails are only part of the equation. I can orchestrate networking/volumes all while accessing a breadth of remote images through Docker/docker-compose
- throwaway5d097 7y agoMaybe combining jails with something like Ansible for building images and automating configuration would be close to good enough? Though more boilerplate? I wonder

- jsiepkes 7y agoI suspect there is but I dont know about it (I use SmartOS / Triton). There is a small list of jail management tools [1]. If it doesnt exist it should be really easy to make since FreeBSD jails (usually) sit on ZFS you can easily use "ZFS send" to create a image of the ZFS dataset. All that one would need to add is some (minor) tooling. On the more "heavy side" I know that for example Project Fifo has experimental FreeBSD support [2] in case you want to host multiple FreeBSD machines with jails on them.

- MuffinFlavored 7y agoI can guarantee none of these tools come even remotely close to the features of Dockerfiles, docker-compsoe.yml, docker-machine, etc.
