NAME
toolbox-enter - Enter a Toolbx container for interactive use
SYNOPSIS
toolbox enter [--distro DISTRO | -d DISTRO] [--release RELEASE | -r RELEASE] [CONTAINER]
DESCRIPTION
Spawns an interactive shell inside a Toolbx 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
Toolbx 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 Toolbx 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 Toolbx container for a different operating system DISTRO than the
host. Has to be coupled with --release unless the selected DISTRO matches the
host.
--release RELEASE, -r RELEASE
Enter a Toolbx container for a different operating system RELEASE than the host.
EXAMPLES
Enter the default Toolbx container matching the host OS
$ toolbox enter
Enter the default Toolbx container for Fedora 36
$ toolbox enter --distro fedora --release f36
Enter a Toolbx container with a custom name
$ toolbox enter foo
