s6 overlay

We have hosted the application s6 overlay in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about s6 overlay:

s6-overlay is an easy-to-install (just extract a tarball or two!) set of scripts and utilities allowing you to use existing Docker images while using s6 as a pid 1 for your container and process supervisor for your services.

Features:

• A simple init process which allows the end-user to execute tasks like initialization (cont-init.d), finalization (cont-finish.d) and their own services with dependencies between them
• The s6-overlay provides proper PID 1 functionality
• Multiple processes in a single container
• Usable with all base images - Ubuntu, CentOS, Fedora, Alpine, Busybox.
• Distributed as a small number of .tar.xz files depending on what exact functionality you need - to keep your image's number of layers small
• A whole set of utilities included in s6 and s6-portable-utils. They include handy and composable utilities which make our lives much, much easier

Programming Language: Unix Shell.
