@node Invoking guix container
@section Invoking @command{guix container}
@cindex container
@quotation Note
As of version @value{VERSION}, this tool is experimental. The interface
is subject to radical change in the future.
@end quotation
The purpose of @command{guix container} is to manipulate processes
running within an isolated environment, commonly known as a
``container,'' typically created by the @command{guix environment}
(@pxref{Invoking guix environment}) and @command{guix system container}
(@pxref{Invoking guix system}) commands.
The general syntax is:
@example
guix container @var{action} @var{options}@dots{}
@end example
@var{action} specifies the operation to perform with a container, and
@var{options} specifies the context-specific arguments for the action.
The following actions are available:
@table @code
@item exec
Execute a command within the context of a running container.
The syntax is:
@example
guix container exec @var{pid} @var{program} @var{arguments}@dots{}
@end example
@var{pid} specifies the process ID of the running container.
@var{program} specifies an executable file name within the container's
root file system. @var{arguments} are the additional options that will
be passed to @var{program}.
The following command launches an interactive login shell inside a
GuixSD container, started by @command{guix system container}, and whose
process ID is 9001:
@example
guix container exec 9001 /run/current-system/profile/bin/bash --login
@end example
Note that the @var{pid} cannot be the parent process of a container. It
must be the container's PID 1 or one of its child processes.
