Question

Make the cli work with all versions of docker

ciera opened this issue 9 years ago · comments

Many versions of linux come bundled with an old version of docker (<1.7) that is mutually incompatible with later versions. The feature in question is the results from docker inspect. Old versions had a Volumes that mapped string to string. New versions have a Mounts that is an array of objects.

We already have code that works for both of these, we just need to special case based on the docker version.

According to this, the change was at docker 1.8. http://www.adelton.com/docs/docker/docker-inspect-volumes-mounts

Still trying to get more precise info so that we can actually determine which version we are using.

This implies that they changed it in 1.8.0.

Fix submitted; have not been able to verify it yet. Our travis build still fails on this. I think that fails not due to docker versions, but due to running docker-in-docker.
