Alpine Docker Dev Host Setup

alpine-docker-setup.sh

#/bin/sh

# 
# The following assumes a default Alpine install using the standard Alpine image
#
# Note: for VirtualBox, you could be tempted to use the `alpine-virt` image,
# however it uses the `virtgrsec` kernel, for which there is no guest additions support

# if required, SSH root password access can be enabled by adding `PermitRootLogin yes`
# to `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`

# VirtualBox networking:
# Network > Adapter 1 > Host-only Adapter: this will allow communication between host and guest
# Network > Adapter 2 > NAT: this will let the guest connect to the internet
# Note: the order of the adapters is important!
#
# Make sure `/etc/network/interfaces` has the following (this makes sure both interface are up with static IPs):
#
# auto eth1
# iface eth1 inet static
#        address 10.0.3.15
#        netmask 255.255.255.0
#        gateway 10.0.3.2
#
# auto eth0
# iface eth0 inet static
#        address 192.168.56.101
#        netmask 255.255.255.0
#
# DNS, edit `/etc/resolv.conf` to have the following,
# note that the first nameserver depends on having the DNS docker container running, see below:
#
# nameserver 172.17.0.1
# nameserver 8.8.8.8
# nameserver 8.8.4.4

# use main and community and repos on `dl-2` mirror
# - edge repos added for Docker 1.12
#     (default 1.11 has grsec issue: https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/22506)
