tagwright/core

Shared building blocks for the tagwright suite. The first piece is runtime, a container-runtime abstraction over Docker and Podman. It talks to a Docker Engine API-compatible socket and exposes the operations the suite's tools need: list and inspect containers, watch the socket for lifecycle events, read compose project/service labels, stop and start containers, exec into them, and a set of normalized Container and Mount types so callers do not deal in engine-specific shapes. A single request-and-mapping core is shared by a Docker adapter and a Podman adapter that differ only in their default socket path and how they read compose identity off a container's labels.

This module is a leaf: its only non-stdlib dependency is the Docker SDK. It was extracted from ballast so a second consumer can share the same abstraction.

Optional capabilities

The base Runtime interface is the stable contract every adapter satisfies: list, inspect, watch, exec, stop, start, kill, restart, and close. Capabilities added after v0.2.0 land as separate optional interfaces rather than new Runtime methods, so a new capability never breaks an existing consumer's mock or alternate Runtime implementation. A consumer type-asserts for the capability it wants:

if ni, ok := rt.(runtime.NetworkInspector); ok {
    nets, err := ni.ListNetworks(ctx)
    // ...
}

• NetworkInspector (v0.3.0): ListNetworks(ctx) returns each network's subnet CIDRs, driver, internal flag, and labels, for classifying a destination as own-network, LAN, or internet. Both the Docker and Podman adapters satisfy it.

Normalized types

• Container: id, name, state, labels, mounts, compose project and service, image, log driver, env, health, and Networks.
• ContainerNetwork: one network a container is attached to, and the IP addresses it holds on that network.
• Network: a network's name, id, driver, internal flag, subnet CIDRs, and labels.
• Mount: a normalized bind, tmpfs, or named-volume mount.

Versions

• v0.3.0: network introspection. NetworkInspector.ListNetworks, Network, ContainerNetwork, and Container.Networks, for egress classification.
• v0.2.0: Kill and Restart, and Container gains image, log driver, env, and health.
• v0.1.0: initial extraction from ballast. The Runtime abstraction over Docker and Podman with normalized Container and Mount types.
