Imaginary

This directory contains the Imaginary runtime on Unikraft, in binary compatibility mode. It implements Imaginary running on Unikraft.

Run and Use

Use kraft to run the image and start a Unikraft instance:

kraft run --rm -p 8080:8080 --plat qemu --arch x86_64 -M 512M unikraft.org/imaginary:1.2

If the --plat argument is left out, it defaults to qemu. If the --arch argument is left out, it defaults to your system's CPU architecture.

Once executed, it will open port 8080 and wait for connections. To test it, you can use curl to get the health status:

curl -s localhost:8080/health | jq

You will get a on output such as:

{
  "uptime": 86,
  "allocatedMemory": 0.19,
  "totalAllocatedMemory": 0.39,
  "goroutines": 6,
  "completedGCCycles": 2,
  "cpus": 1,
  "maxHeapUsage": 3.66,
  "heapInUse": 0.19,
  "objectsInUse": 890,
  "OSMemoryObtained": 7.48
}

Inspect and Close

To list information about the Unikraft instance, use:

kraft ps
NAME           KERNEL                           ARGS                                           CREATED        STATUS   MEM   PORTS                   PLAT
wizardly_moja  project://imaginary:qemu/x86_64  /usr/bin/imaginary -p 8080 -enable-url-source  2 minutes ago  running  488M  0.0.0.0:8080->8080/tcp  qemu/x86_64

The instance name is wizardly_moja. To close the Unikraft instance, close the kraft process (e.g., via Ctrl+c) or run:

kraft rm wizardly_moja

Build and Run Locally

The commands so far used the pre-build Ruby image available in the Unikraft registry.

In oder to to build a local image, clone this repository and cd into this directory. Then use kraft to build an image locally:

kraft build --no-cache --no-update --plat qemu --arch x86_64

Similar to the kraft run command, if the --plat argument is left out, it defaults to qemu. If the --arch argument is left out, it defaults to your system's CPU architecture.

In order to run the locally built image, use . (dot, the current directory) as the final argument to the kraft run command:

kraft run --rm -p 8080:8080 --plat qemu --arch x86_64 -M 512M .

Same as above, it will open port 8080 and wait for connections.

kraft and sudo

Mixing invocations of kraft and sudo can lead to unexpected behavior. Read more about how to start kraft without sudo at https://unikraft.org/sudoless.
