OpenDaylight in a Docker

This is a quick guide to start a Docker container with OpenDaylight running on it.
Clone OpenDaylight integration repository
[[email protected]]$ git clone https://github.com/opendaylight/integration.git
Move to the directory where CentOS Dockerfile is saved.
[[email protected]]$ cd integration/packaging/docker/centos/
| Build the new image, you can call it as your DockerHub name(in my case egonzalez90), so you can push it there later. | If you don\'t want to create a new image, you can use my image. This step will download and start the new container: docker run -d egonzalez90/opendaylight
[[email protected] centos]$ docker build -t egonzalez90/opendaylight .

Once the image is built or downloaded, ensure you have it locally
[[email protected]]$ docker images | grep opendaylight
egonzalez90/opendaylight                              latest              c1a0db72dbbc        About a minute ago   740.6 MB
Start a new container in a detached mode.
[[email protected]]$ docker run -d egonzalez90/opendaylight

Usage of loopback devices is strongly discouraged for production use. Either use `--storage-opt dm.thinpooldev` or use `--storage-opt dm.no_warn_on_loop_devices=true` to suppress this warning.
Check if the container is running with:
[[email protected]]$ docker ps | grep opendaylight 
ae08898ba6ad        egonzalez90/opendaylight   "./bin/karaf server"     14 seconds ago      Up 11 seconds       162/tcp, 179/tcp, 1088/tcp, 1790/tcp, 1830/tcp, 2400/tcp, 2550-2552/tcp, 4189/tcp, 4342/tcp, 5005/tcp, 5666/tcp, 6633/tcp, 6640/tcp, 6653/tcp, 7800/tcp, 8000/tcp, 8080/tcp, 8101/tcp, 8181/tcp, 8383/tcp, 12001/tcp   awesome_khorana
Now, check container information with docker inspect, we search for the IP address
[[email protected]]$ docker inspect  ae08898ba6ad | grep -i IPAddress
        "SecondaryIPAddresses": null,
        "IPAddress": "172.17.0.3",
                "IPAddress": "172.17.0.3",
| Now you know the container IP address, to login into karaf, first we need to download and install karaf client tool | Go to the following URL to download the package: http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/karaf/4.0.5/apache-karaf-4.0.5.tar.gz​
Extract the files and move to the new directory
[[email protected] Downloads]$ tar -xzvf apache-karaf-4.0.5.tar.gz 
[[email protected] Downloads]$ cd apache-karaf-4.0.5/
Execute the client authenticating with the container IP
[[email protected] apache-karaf-4.0.5]$ ./bin/client -a 8101 -h 172.17.0.3 -u karaf -v

Hit '' for a list of available commands
and '[cmd] --help' for help on a specific command.
Hit '' or type 'system:shutdown' or 'logout' to shutdown OpenDaylight.
Once karaf login succeed, install a few features like DLUX
[email protected]>feature:install odl-restconf odl-l2switch-switch odl-mdsal-apidocs odl-dlux-core
Now you can login at the container IP with admin as username and password.
