Bastille

Bastille is an open-source system for automating deployment and management of containerized applications on FreeBSD.

Bastille Documentation

Installation

Bastille is available for installation from the official FreeBSD ports tree.

pkg

pkg install bastille

ports

portsnap fetch auto
make -C /usr/ports/sysutils/bastille install clean

Git (bleeding edge / unstable -- primarily for developers)

git clone https://github.com/bastillebsd/bastille.git
cd bastille
make install

enable at boot

sysrc bastille_enable=YES
sysrc bastille_rcorder=YES

Upgrading from a previous version

When upgrading from a previous version of bastille (e.g. 0.10.20230714 to 0.10.20231013) you will need to update your bastille.conf

cd /usr/local/etc/bastille
diff -u bastille.conf bastille.conf.sample

Merge the lines that are present in the new bastille.conf.sample into your bastille.conf

0.10-beta

This document outlines the basic usage of the Bastille container management framework. This release is still considered beta.

Setup Requirements

Bastille can now (attempt) to configure the networking, firewall and storage automatically. This feature is new since version 0.10.20231013.

bastille setup

ishmael ~ # bastille setup -h
ishmael ~ # Usage: bastille setup [pf|bastille0|zfs|vnet]

On fresh installations it is likely safe to run bastille setup with no arguments. This will configure the firewall, the loopback interface and attempt to determine ZFS vs UFS storage.

If you have an existing firewall, or customized network design, you may want to run individual options; eg bastille setup zfs or bastille setup vnet.

Note: The bastille setup command can configure and enable PF but it does not automatically reload the firewall. You will still need to manually service pf start. At that point you'll likely be disconnected if configuring a remote host. Simply reconnect the ssh session and continue.

This step only needs to be done once in order to prepare the host.

Example (create, start, console)

This example creates, starts and consoles into the container.

ishmael ~ # bastille create alcatraz 14.0-RELEASE 10.17.89.10/24
ishmael ~ # bastille start alcatraz
[alcatraz]:
alcatraz: created
ishmael ~ # bastille console alcatraz
[alcatraz]:
