Function Documentation

int list_active_containers	(	const char *	lxcpath,
		char ***	names,
		struct lxc_container ***	cret
	)

Get a list of active containers for a given lxcpath.

Parameters

	lxcpath	Full `LXCPATH` path to consider.
[out]	names	Dynamically-allocated array of container names.
[out]	cret	Dynamically-allocated list of containers.

Returns: Number of containers found, or -1 on error.

Note: Some of the containers may not be "defined".; Values returned in cret are sorted by container name.; names and cret may both (or either) be specified as NULL.; names and cret must be freed by the caller.

int list_all_containers	(	const char *	lxcpath,
		char ***	names,
		struct lxc_container ***	cret
	)

Get a complete list of all containers for a given lxcpath.

Parameters

	lxcpath	Full `LXCPATH` path to consider.
[out]	names	Dynamically-allocated array of container name.
[out]	cret	Dynamically-allocated list of containers.

Returns: Number of containers, or -1 on error.

Note: Some of the containers may not be "defined".; Values returned in cret are sorted by container name.; names and cret may both (or either) be specified as NULL.; names and cret must be freed by the caller.

int list_defined_containers	(	const char *	lxcpath,
		char ***	names,
		struct lxc_container ***	cret
	)

Get a list of defined containers in a lxcpath.

Parameters

lxcpath	lxcpath under which to look.
names	If not `NULL`, then a list of container names will be returned here.
cret	If not `NULL`, then a list of lxc_containers will be returned here.

Returns: Number of containers found, or -1 on error.

Note: Values returned in cret are sorted by container name.

int lxc_container_get ( struct lxc_container * c )

Add a reference to the specified container.

Parameters

c	Container.

Returns: true on success, false on error.

struct lxc_container* lxc_container_new	(	const char *	name,
		const char *	configpath
	)

Create a new container.

Parameters

name	Name to use for container.
configpath	Full path to configuration file to use.

Returns: Newly-allocated container, or NULL on error.

int lxc_container_put ( struct lxc_container * c )

Drop a reference to the specified container.

Parameters

c	Container.

Returns: 0 on success, 1 if reference was successfully dropped and container has been freed, and -1 on error.

Warning: If 1 is returned, c is no longer valid.

const char* lxc_get_global_config_item ( const char * key )

Get the value for a global config key.

Parameters

key	The name of the config key

Returns: String representing the current value for the key.

const char* lxc_get_version ( void )

Determine version of LXC.

Returns: Static string representing version of LXC in use.

Note: Returned string must not be freed.

int lxc_get_wait_states ( const char ** states )

Obtain a list of all container states.

Parameters

[out] states Caller-allocated array to hold all states (may be NULL).

Returns: Number of container states.

Note: Passing NULL for states allows the caller to first calculate how many states there are before calling the function again, the second time providing a suitably-sized array to store the static string pointers in.; The states array should be freed by the caller, but not the strings the elements point to.
