      = Adding kubedock to run containers in the UDI

      With this update, link:https://github.com/joyrex2001/[kubedock] is now a part of the UDI ({prod-short} default image). If the environment variable `KUBEDOCK_ENABLED` is set to `true` in a workspace (this can be done using a devfile), the kubedock server is started at startup.

      When `KUBEDOCK_ENABLED=true` then the following commands will be executed with kubedock. The remaining commands, in particular, `podman build`, will be executed by the local Podman:

      * `podman run`
      * `podman ps`
      * `podman exec`
      * `podman cp`
      * `podman logs`
      * `podman inspect`
      * `podman kill`
      * `podman rm`
      * `podman wait`
      * `podman stop`
      * `podman start`

    Description

      Using a specific SCC with the right privileges it's currently possible to build a container image with podman build but it's not possible run a container with podman run.

      This feature request is about:

      • Figuring out the minimal SCC required to execute podman run
      • Updating the UDI image so that podman run executes successfully
      • Document how to configure a cluster and and a workspace to execute podman run

          account is impacted by

          Bug - A problem that impairs or prevents the functions of the product. CRW-4863 [udi] Permission denied when trying to create container within a workspace with kubedock and podman

          • Blocker - To be worked above all other priorities. This term is chosen when the severity of the issue is very high, has no workaround, or the effort for the change is comparatively low. Issues that may be very publicly visible and could generate significant media attention may also drive a higher priority.

          Enhancement - An enhancement to or refactoring of existing functionality that is not configurable by an end user (typically a change made by an internal team that affects users) CRW-3366 Improving the support for building container images

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
