Can't enable on RPi1 (armv6l) nor RPi3 (aarch64)

[aartigao]

Hi!

I've several RPis (Versions 1 and 3) with Arch Linux ARM installed which I'd like to use as a Swarm cluster. All have package sshfs installed and tested, but I can't install/enable the plugin (all models return the same error).

The plugin seems to install...

yellow% docker plugin ls  
ID                  NAME                 DESCRIPTION               ENABLED
f40af84ee646        vieux/sshfs:latest   sshFS plugin for Docker   false

but doesn't want to start:

yellow% docker plugin enable vieux/sshfs
Error response from daemon: dial unix /run/docker/plugins/f40af84ee646cd1de6d5500646ec501bfadff451d3b3833fc639c61f297b63e9/sshfs.sock: connect: no such file or directory

Plugin installs fine on my laptop (although sshfs is not installed there).

Installation info:

Am I missing something? Does someone successfully installed the plugin on RPi? Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

You need to build it yourself for arm architecture.

Hello, is there anyone who can tell me how I can build the plugin.

thank you very much to who can help me

I've ran into this issue today, while trying to run it on my Pi4. I have never built a package, how should I do it? Just run the makefile? And after that, how would I tell docker to use it?

[glensc]

to build simple:

docker build -t vieux/docker-volume-sshfs:armhf https://github.com/vieux/docker-volume-sshfs/raw/v1.4/Dockerfile

Edit: need to clone repo, as otherwise source is missing:

git clone https://github.com/vieux/docker-volume-sshfs -b v1.4
cd docker-volume-sshfs
docker build -t vieux/docker-volume-sshfs:armhf .

but how to enable using that docker image?

https://docs.docker.com/engine/extend/#:~:text=Creating%20the%20plugin,up%20in%20docker%20plugin%20ls%20.
here explains how to do the compilation,btw using exactaly this repo as sample

i did exactaly this commands to work:

git clone https://github.com/vieux/docker-volume-sshfs 
cd docker-volume-sshfs 
sudo docker build -t rootfsimage .
id=$(sudo docker create rootfsimage true) 
sudo mkdir -p myplugin/rootfs
sudo docker export "$id" | sudo tar -x -C myplugin/rootfs 
sudo docker rm -vf "$id" 
sudo docker rmi rootfsimage 
sudo cp ./config.json ./myplugin/ 
sudo docker plugin create vieux/docker-volume-sshfs:armhf {directory where i did the git clone}/docker-volume-sshfs/myplugin/ 
sudo docker plugin enable vieux/docker-volume-sshfs:armhf

the docker acepted the plugin install exactaly how it should,docker-compose also accepted ,but remembering i gave the name "vieux/docker-volume-sshfs:armhf" to the plugin,you could change it too,you also has to use this name when setting up everyting related to this volume driver,as create a volume by command line or create it using the docker compose or any orquestrator

i've figured out that could happend an problem at the build due to not all armhf boards support the time64,to solve this you have to change the alpine into the Dockerfile version to 3.12.3 since this works,since i've done this and worked,i didnt tried a better solution,but could exists
