We are working hard to get there, and we are confident that it will be possible within a few months.

+Advanced port redirections
|
|
|
+--------------------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Docker currently supports 2 flavors of port redirection: STATIC->STATIC (eg. "redirect public port 80 to private port 80")
|
|
|
+and RANDOM->STATIC (eg. "redirect any public port to private port 80").
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+With these 2 flavors, docker can support the majority of backend programs out there. But some applications have more exotic
|
|
|
+requirements, generally to implement custom clustering techniques. These applications include Hadoop, MongoDB, Riak, RabbitMQ,
|
|
|
+Disco, and all programs relying on Erlang's OTP.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To support these applications, Docker needs to support more advanced redirection flavors, including:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* RANDOM->RANDOM
|
|
|
+* STATIC1->STATIC2
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+These flavors should be implemented without breaking existing semantics, if at all possible.
