Will it be possible to run Docker containers on Android? I may be asking this incorrectly. So correct me if I have a mistake. My question might be "Will it be possible to run Docker containers on Dalvik VM?" or "Can I run an Android in Docker container?"
- shykes 13y agoI have not tried personally, but I think it should be possible. People already do crazy things with Docker :) For example: http://resin.io/docker-on-raspberry-pi/ http://resin.io/docker-on-raspberry-pi/
- justincormack 13y agoYou cant "run docker on Dalvik VM" as it runs on Linux not on a JVM. You also can't run Android on a Docker container as Android needs some system calls not in a standard Linux kernel, although there may be some ways around that. You might be able to run docker on Android though, but you may need to compile a kernel with containers (namespace) support as I don't know that Android ships with them (I forget).
