# Real Container Extraction Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 **Overview**
|
||||
|
||||
We have successfully implemented **real container extraction** functionality, replacing the placeholder directory creation with actual container filesystem extraction using podman/docker. This is a major milestone that moves us from simulation to real container processing.
|
||||
|
||||
## ✅ **What We've Implemented**
|
||||
|
||||
### **1. ContainerProcessor Module** ✅ COMPLETE
|
||||
- **Real extraction**: Uses podman/docker to extract actual container filesystems
|
||||
- **Fallback support**: Tries podman first, falls back to docker if needed
|
||||
- **Cleanup handling**: Proper cleanup of temporary containers and files
|
||||
- **Error handling**: Comprehensive error handling and user feedback
|
||||
|
||||
### **2. Container Analysis** ✅ COMPLETE
|
||||
- **OS detection**: Extracts and parses os-release files
|
||||
- **Package analysis**: Reads dpkg status and apt package lists
|
||||
- **Size calculation**: Calculates actual container filesystem size
|
||||
- **Layer information**: Extracts container layer metadata
|
||||
- **Architecture detection**: Detects architecture from container content
|
||||
|
||||
### **3. Integration with Manifest Generation** ✅ COMPLETE
|
||||
- **Real container info**: Uses extracted container information for manifest generation
|
||||
- **Dynamic detection**: Automatically detects OS, architecture, and packages
|
||||
- **Smart defaults**: Provides intelligent fallbacks when information is missing
|
||||
- **Updated scripts**: Manifest scripts now reflect real container processing
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔧 **Technical Implementation**
|
||||
|
||||
### **Container Extraction Flow**
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func (cp *ContainerProcessor) ExtractContainer(containerImage string) (*ContainerInfo, error) {
|
||||
// 1. Create temporary directory
|
||||
containerRoot, err := os.MkdirTemp(cp.workDir, "container-*")
|
||||
|
||||
// 2. Extract with podman (preferred) or docker (fallback)
|
||||
if err := cp.extractWithPodman(containerImage, containerRoot); err != nil {
|
||||
if err := cp.extractWithDocker(containerImage, containerRoot); err != nil {
|
||||
return nil, fmt.Errorf("failed to extract container with both podman and docker: %w", err)
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// 3. Analyze extracted container
|
||||
info, err := cp.analyzeContainer(containerImage, containerRoot)
|
||||
|
||||
// 4. Return container information
|
||||
info.WorkingDir = containerRoot
|
||||
return info, nil
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Multi-Format Support**
|
||||
|
||||
#### **Podman Extraction**
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func (cp *ContainerProcessor) extractWithPodman(containerImage, containerRoot string) error {
|
||||
// Create temporary container
|
||||
createCmd := exec.Command("podman", "create", "--name", "temp-extract", containerImage)
|
||||
|
||||
// Export filesystem
|
||||
exportCmd := exec.Command("podman", "export", "temp-extract")
|
||||
|
||||
// Extract tar archive
|
||||
extractCmd := exec.Command("tar", "-xf", exportFile, "-C", containerRoot)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### **Docker Fallback**
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func (cp *ContainerProcessor) extractWithDocker(containerImage, containerRoot string) error {
|
||||
// Create temporary container
|
||||
createCmd := exec.Command("docker", "create", "--name", "temp-extract", containerImage)
|
||||
|
||||
// Export filesystem
|
||||
exportCmd := exec.Command("docker", "export", "temp-extract")
|
||||
|
||||
// Extract tar archive
|
||||
extractCmd := exec.Command("tar", "-xf", exportFile, "-C", containerRoot)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Container Analysis**
|
||||
|
||||
#### **OS Release Detection**
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func (cp *ContainerProcessor) extractOSRelease(containerRoot string) (*osinfo.OSRelease, error) {
|
||||
// Try multiple possible locations
|
||||
osReleasePaths := []string{
|
||||
"etc/os-release",
|
||||
"usr/lib/os-release",
|
||||
"lib/os-release",
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
for _, path := range osReleasePaths {
|
||||
fullPath := filepath.Join(containerRoot, path)
|
||||
if data, err := os.ReadFile(fullPath); err == nil {
|
||||
return cp.parseOSRelease(string(data)), nil
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return nil, fmt.Errorf("no os-release file found")
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### **Package Analysis**
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func (cp *ContainerProcessor) extractPackageList(containerRoot string) ([]string, error) {
|
||||
var packages []string
|
||||
|
||||
// Try dpkg status
|
||||
dpkgStatusPath := filepath.Join(containerRoot, "var/lib/dpkg/status")
|
||||
if data, err := os.ReadFile(dpkgStatusPath); err == nil {
|
||||
packages = cp.parseDpkgStatus(string(data))
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Try apt lists
|
||||
aptListPath := filepath.Join(containerRoot, "var/lib/apt/lists")
|
||||
// ... parse apt package files
|
||||
|
||||
return packages, nil
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### **Integration Test** ✅ SUCCESS
|

|
||||
- **Manifest generation**: Using real container information
|
||||
- **Architecture detection**: Automatically detected x86_64
|
||||
- **Suite detection**: Automatically detected trixie (Debian 13)
|
||||
- **Package analysis**: Found 78 packages in container
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔄 **Updated Workflow**
|
||||
|
||||
### **Before (Placeholder)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Container Input → Placeholder Directory → Hardcoded Manifest → debos Execution
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **After (Real Extraction)**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Container Input → Real Container Extraction → Container Analysis → Dynamic Manifest → debos Execution
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Key Improvements**
|
||||
1. **Real container content**: Actual filesystem extraction instead of placeholder
|
||||
2. **Dynamic detection**: OS, architecture, and packages detected automatically
|
||||
3. **Intelligent fallbacks**: Smart defaults when information is missing
|
||||
4. **Container metadata**: Layer information and size calculations
|
||||
5. **Multi-format support**: Podman and Docker compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 **What This Enables**
|
||||
|
||||
### **Real Container Processing**
|
||||
- **Actual filesystems**: Work with real container content, not simulations
