NAME
toolbox-enter - Enter a toolbox container for interactive use
SYNOPSIS
toolbox enter [--distro DISTRO | -d DISTRO] [--release RELEASE | -r RELEASE] [CONTAINER]
DESCRIPTION
Spawns an interactive shell inside a toolbox container that was created using
the toolbox create command. It tries to spawn the user's default shell, but
if it's not available inside the container then it falls back to /bin/bash.
When invoked without any options, toolbox enter will try to enter the default
toolbox container for the host, or if there's only one container available then
it will use it. On Fedora, the default container is known as
fedora-toolbox-N, where N is the release of the host. If there aren't any
containers, toolbox enter will offer to create the default one for you.
A specific container can be selected using the CONTAINER argument.
A toolbox container is an OCI container. Therefore, toolbox enter is
analogous to a podman start followed by a podman exec.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
--distro DISTRO, -d DISTRO
Enter a toolbox container for a different operating system DISTRO than the host.
--release RELEASE, -r RELEASE
Enter a toolbox container for a different operating system RELEASE than the host.
EXAMPLES
Enter a toolbox container using the default image matching the host OS
$ toolbox enter
Enter a toolbox container using the default image for Fedora 30
$ toolbox enter --distro fedora --release f30
Enter a custom toolbox container using a custom image
$ toolbox enter foo
