How to configure the Docker daemon to bind to a tcp socket instead of default unix socket using a puppet manifest file

Question

As we already know,by default the Docker daemon binds to a unix socket at /var/run/docker.sock. I need to change this parameter and update the binding parameter to a tcp socket. How can i do this using puppet code?

Answer 1

Add the following code to the manifest file:

class { 'docker':
  tcp_bind        => ['tcp://127.0.0.1:2375'],
  socket_bind     => 'unix:///var/run/docker.sock',
  ip_forward      => true,
  iptables        => true,
  ip_masq         => true,
  bip             => '192.168.1.1/24',
  fixed_cidr      => '192.168.1.144/28',
}

This should do!
