## 0.9.3 (release date: pending)
* It looks like Docker changed their Ubuntu 12.04 base image, thereby breaking our Dockerfile. This has been fixed.
* The init system (`/sbin/my_init`) now supports running scripts during startup. You can put startup scripts `/etc/my_init.d`. `/etc/rc.local` is also run during startup.
## 0.9.2 (release date: 2013-12-11)
* Fixed SFTP support. Thanks Joris van de Donk!
## 0.9.1 (release date: 2013-11-12)
* Improved init process script (`/sbin/my_init`): it now handles shutdown correctly. Previously, `docker stop` would not have any effect on `my_init`, causing the whole container to be killed with SIGKILL. The new init process script gracefully shuts down all runit services, then exits.

# A minimal Docker base image with a correct and usable system
# A minimal Ubuntu base image modified for Docker-friendliness
Baseimage-docker is a [Docker](http://www.docker.io) image meant to serve as a good base for any other Docker container. It contains a minimal base system with the most important things already installed and set up correctly.
Baseimage-docker is a special [Docker](http://www.docker.io) image that is configured for correct use within Docker containers. It is Ubuntu, plus modifications for Docker-friendliness. You can use it as a base for your own Docker images.
Baseimage-docker is available for pulling from on [the Docker registry](https://index.docker.io/u/phusion/baseimage/)!

### What are the problems with the stock Ubuntu base image?
Ubuntu is not designed to be run inside docker. Its init system, Upstart, assumes that it's running on either real hardware or virtualized hardware, but not inside a Docker container. But inside a container you don't want a full system anyway, you want a minimal system. But configuring that minimal system for use within a container has many strange corner cases that are hard to get right if you are not intimately familiar with the Unix system model. This can cause a lot of strange problems.
Baseimage-docker gets everything right. The "Contents" section describes all the things that it modifies.
### Why use baseimage-docker?
Why use baseimage-docker instead of doing everything yourself in Dockerfile?
You can configure the stock `ubuntu` image yourself from your Dockerfile, so why bother using baseimage-docker?
* Configuring the base system for Docker-friendliness is no easy task. As stated before, there are many corner cases. By the time that you've gotten all that right, you've reinvented baseimage-docker. Using baseimage-docker will save you from this effort.
* It reduces the time needed to write a correct Dockerfile. You won't have to worry about the base system and can focus on your stack and your app.
* It sets up the base system **correctly**. It's very easy to get the base system wrong, but this image does everything correctly.
* It reduces the time needed to run `docker build`, allowing you to iterate your Dockerfile more quickly.
* It reduces download time during redeploys. Docker only needs to download the base image once: during the first deploy. On every subsequent deploys, only the changes you make on top of the base image are downloaded.

RUN mkdir /etc/services/memcached
ADD redis.sh /etc/services/memcached/run

ADD memcached.sh /etc/service/memcached/run
Note that the shell script must run the daemon **without letting it daemonize/fork it**. Usually, daemons provide a command line flag or a config file option for that.
### Login in to the container
### Running scripts during container startup
The baseimage-docker init system, `/sbin/my_init`, runs the following scripts during startup, in the following order:
* All executable scripts in `/etc/my_init.d`, if this directory exists. The scripts are run during in lexicographic order.
* The script `/etc/rc.local`, if this file exists.
All scripts must exit correctly, e.g. with exit code 0. If any script exits with a non-zero exit code, the booting will fail.
The following example shows how you can add a startup script. This script simply logs the time of boot to the file /tmp/boottime.txt.
### In logtime.sh (make sure this file is chmod +x):
