This package contains the Golang interface for using the Windows Host
Compute Service
(https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/containers/introducing-the-host-
compute-service-hcs/ba-p/382332) (HCS) to launch and manage Windows
Containers (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-
us/virtualization/windowscontainers/about/). It also contains other
helpers and functions for managing Windows Containers such as the
Golang
interface for the Host Network Service (HNS), as well as code for the
guest agent (/internal/guest/README.md) (commonly referred to as the
GCS
or Guest Compute Service in the codebase) used to support running Linux
Hyper-V containers.
.
It is primarily used in the Moby (https://github.com/moby/moby) and
Containerd (https://github.com/containerd/containerd) projects, but it
can be freely used by other projects as well.
.
Building
.
While this repository can be used as a library of sorts to call the HCS
apis, there are a couple binaries built out of the repository as well.
The main ones being the Linux guest agent, and an implementation of the
runtime v2 containerd shim api
(https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/master/runtime/v2/README.
md).
This is a windows specific library. You probably don't really need it in
Debian and you should probably patch it out of the project that needs it,
as it is done in Docker packages.
