Raffaele Di Fazio commented on MESOS-3688: ------------------------------------------ Sure, I thought about that. Do you think it is reasonable to make a framework implement this? It should be trivial, but if this will be changed in mesos, will have to be changed accordingly in frameworks. Do we want to introduce this (possible) future incompatibility in order not to pass one more variable? > Get Container Name information when launching a container task > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MESOS-3688 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3688 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: containerization > Affects Versions: 0.24.1 > Reporter: Raffaele Di Fazio > Labels: mesosphere > > We want to get the Docker Name (or Docker ID, or both) when launching a > container task with mesos. The container name is generated by mesos itself > (i.e. mesos-77e5fde6-83e7-4618-a2dd-d5b10f2b4d25, obtained with "docker ps") > and it would be nice to expose this information to frameworks so that this > information can be used, for example by Marathon to give this information to > users via a REST API. > To go a bit in depth with our use case, we have files created by fluentd > logdriver that are named with Docker Name or Docker ID (full or short) and we > need a mapping for the users of the REST API and thus the first step is to > make this information available from mesos. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
