Features

netshell is a container that bundles the tools necessary for quickly debugging services in your containerized environment.

netshell with docker

Start a one-shot pod that is removed after it exists.

docker run -it --rm redimp/netshell

Attach to the network of a running container

docker run -it --rm --net container:<container_id> redimp/netshell

Attach to the hosts network

docker run -it --rm --net host redimp/netshell

netshell with podman

Start a one-shot pod that is removed after it exists.

podman run -it --rm redimp/netshell

Note: All docker examples work analog with podman.

netshell with kubernetes

Start a one-shot pod for debugging, removed after the shell exists.

kubectl run tmp-shell --rm -i --tty --image redimp/netshell

Attach an ephemeral container to an existing pod:

kubectl debug -it --image redimp/netshell pod

Alternatives

• netshoot a Docker + Kubernetes network trouble-shooting swiss-army container. Highly recommended.
