# toolbox - bring your own tools with you
On systems using `transactional-update` it is not really possible - due to the read-only root filesystem - to install tools to analyze problems in the currently running system as a reboot is always required. This makes it next to impossible to debug such problems.
-`toolbox` is a small script that launches a podman container in a rootless or rootfull state to let you bring in your favorite debugging or admin tools in such a system. You can also install and run GUI applications in your `toolbox` container. The root filesystem can be found at `/media/root`.
+`toolbox` is a small script that launches a podman container in a rootless or rootfull state to let you bring in your favorite debugging or admin tools in such a system.
+
+You can also install and run GUI applications in your `toolbox` container. The root filesystem can be found at `/media/root`. In a "user toolbox" (i.e., one started with `toolbox -u`) the user's home directory is available in the usual place (`/home/$USER`).
+
+## Usage
-## Usage
-
The following options are avialbe in `toolbox`:
* `-h` or `--help`: Shows the help message
* `-u` or `--user`: Run as the current user inside the container
-* `-R` or `--registry` `<registry>`: Explicitly specify the registry to use
-* `-I` or `--image` `<image>`: Explicitly specify the image to pull
+* `-R` or `--reg` `<registry>`: Explicitly specify the registry to use
+* `-I` or `--img` `<image>`: Explicitly specify the image to pull
+* `-i` or `--image` `<image>`: Full URI of the image to pull (alternative to `-R` & `-I`)
* `-r` or `--root`: Runs podman via sudo as root
-* `-t` or `--tag` <tag>: Add <tag> to the toolbox name
-
-You may override the following variables by setting them in ${TOOLBOXRC}:
-* REGISTRY: The registry to pull from. Default value is: `registry.opensuse.org`.
-* IMAGE: The image and tag from the registry to pull. Default value is: `opensuse/toolbox`.
-* TOOLBOX_NAME: The name to use for the local container. Default value is: `"${HOME}"/.toolboxrc`.
-* TOOLBOX_SHELL: Standard shell if no other commands are given. Default value is: `/bin/bash`.
-
-Example toolboxrc:
-* `REGISTRY`=my.special.registry.example.com
-* `IMAGE`=debug:latest
-* `TOOLBOX_NAME`=special-debug-container
-* `TOOLBOX_SHELL`=/bin/bash"
-
-If a config file is found, with REGISTRY and IMAGE defined, "${REGISTRY}/${IMAGE}" is used, overriding the default.
-If -R and/or -I is/are used they override both the defaults and the content of REGISTRY and/or IMAGE from the config file.

+Example `.toolboxrc` file:
+```
+REGISTRY=my.special.registry.example.com
+IMAGE=debug:latest
+TOOLBOX_NAME=special-debug-container
+TOOLBOX_SHELL=/bin/bash
+```
+
+If a config file is found, with `REGISTRY` and `IMAGE` defined, `${REGISTRY}/${IMAGE}` is used, overriding the default.
+If `-R` and/or `-I` (or `-i`) is/are used they override both the defaults and the content of `REGISTRY` and/or `IMAGE` from the config file.
+
+### Configuration files
+
+Beside the user configuration file, there are two additional system wide
+configuration files:
+* `/usr/etc/toolboxrc`: distribution specific configuration file
+* `/etc/toolboxrc`: system specific configuration file created by a system administrator
+
+The configuration files are read in the order: `/usr/etc/toolboxrc`,
+`/etc/toolboxrc`, `~/.toolboxrc`. The last value is used.
+
+### Alternative UI
+
+It is possible to interact with `toolbox` using an interface which is similar to the one of [containers/toolbox](https://github.com/containers/toolbox). That is based on commands, such as:
+* `create`: Creates a toolbox, but does not "enter" inside of it
+* `enter`: Enter a toolbox (creating it, if it does not exist, in our case)
+* `run`: Run a command / start a program inside a toolbox
+* `list`: Show existing toolboxes, although for now it is basically an alias to `podman ps -a`
+
+### Rootless Usage
+
+By default a toolbox is a rootless container. This means that being root inside the toolbox itself does not map with being root on the host,
+e.g., as far as file permissions, access to special files, etc go.
+

+### Rootful Usage
+
+In fact, toolbox called by a normal user will start the toolbox container but the root filesystem of the host cannot be modified, special devices cannot be accessed, etc.
+Running toolbox with sudo has the disadvantage, that the `.toolboxrc` in the `root` user home directory, and not the user's, is used.
+To run the toolbox container with root rights, `toolbox --root` (or `-r`) has to be used.

## Advanced Usage
+### Running a command/program inside a toolbox
+
+By default, toolbox drops the user into a shell, inside the container. It is possible, instead, to launch a specific command or program inside of the container:
+
+```
+$ toolbox -u sudo zypper in figlet
+.toolboxrc file detected, overriding defaults...
+Container 'toolbox-dario-user' already exists. Trying to start...
+(To remove the container and start with a fresh toolbox, run: podman rm 'toolbox-dario-user')

+ \__\___/ \___/|_|_.__/ \___/_/\_(_)
+```
+
+Of course, the command to run could even be a shell. However, for using a different shell than the default one inside of the toolbox, it is also possible to change the value of the `TOOLBOX_SHELL` variable within the config file.
+
### Use a custom image
toolbox uses an openSUSE-based userspace environment called `opensuse/toolbox` by default, but this can be changed to any container image. Simply override environment variables in `$HOME/.toolboxrc`:
-#### toolbox
-
```
# cat ~/.toolboxrc
REGISTRY=registry.opensuse.org
IMAGE=opensuse/toolbox:latest
```
-### Root container as normal user

-toolbox called by a normal user will start the toolbox container, too, but the root filesystem cannot be modified. Running toolbox with sudo has the disadvantage, that the .toolboxrc from root and not the user is used. To run the toolbox container with root rights, `toolbox --root` has to be used.
+Or just put the full URI under the `-i` parameter, such as `toolbox -u -i registry.opensuse.org/opensuse/tumbleweed:latest`.

+### Alternative (Command Based) UI
+
+If wanting to use the commands-based interface, this is the basic operations
+are performed:
+* Creating a user toolbox and entering inside it (equivalent of `toolbox -u`):
+```
+toolbox create
+toolbox enter
+```
+* Running a command inside a toolbox (equivalent of `toolbox -u /usr/bin/foo`):
+```
+toolbox run ls /home/
+```
+* Creating (and entering) a toolbox tagged as `devel` (equivalent of `toolbox -u -t devel`):
+```
+toolbox create -t devel
+toolbox enter -t devel
+```
+* Creating (and entering) a toolbox called `tbx-apps` (equivalent of `toolbox -u -c tbx-apps`):
+```
+toolbox create -c tbx-apps
+toolbox enter -c tbx-apps
+```
+
+Option `-r` can be used together with commands as well, like this:
+* Creating a toolbox running as root, with your user inside (equivalent of `toolbox -u -r`):
+```
+toolbox create -r
+toolbox enter -r
+```
+* Running a command inside a toolbox that runs as root on the host and has your
+user configured in it (equivalent of `toolbox -u -r /usr/bin/foo`):
+```
+toolbox create -r
+toolbox run -r ls /home/
+```
+
+Note that this latter working mode has no equivalent in containers/toolbox where, if
+wanting to start a toolbox that runs as the root user on the host, it must be started
+with `sudo`.
+

-#### Podman can't pull/run images with user
-If you want to run a rootless `toolbox` setup you might need to add a range of UID and GID for the user you want to run `toolbox` with. Before adding UID and GID ranges check if `/etc/subuid` and `/etc/subgid` are actually empty. If empty you can run this as root to populate them:
