Welcome to the container-init wiki!
- For containers running in Kubernetes (at least initially).
- Unify common startup operations (template file processing using secrets and configmaps, jks file creation).
- Support readiness checks (support HTTP and other types of detection). The 'container-init' name implies functionality like cloud-init, but part of initializing a container in K8S is making sure the container is ready for service.
- Use a template engine (Go templates?).
- Used in a sidecar or within the container.
The parallel to container-init is cloud-init. It is not trying to be Salt, Ansible, Puppet, or Chef.
Considering using Go for this task so that containers stay light.
