Abstract

A container system is disclosed. The container system includes a host, a daemon and an API server running in the containers of the host, and a container manager running in the host. The host has a file system. The container manager creates a source directory in the file system and mounts the source directory to a share directory of the daemon. The API server receives a request command with respect to a target directory in the file system, and the container manager bind-mounts the target directory to a sub-directory of the source directory according to the request command. In addition, the container manager responds the API server the location of the target directory in the share directory for accessing the required data through the share directory in the containers.
