vhaudiquet 2ac01f992a build: adopt the snap version from Cargo.toml
The version: key in snapcraft.yaml was a second number to bump by
hand, and between releases it read whatever it was left at. The ecrou
part now sets its version from [workspace.package] at pull time —
the same value clap reports with --version — so Cargo.toml is the
only place a version lives, and the release workflow stamps only
that. A missed match fails the pack loudly.

ecrou

a small microVM runtime based on libkrun

Try ecrou in the terminal

Installation

ecrou is available as a strictly confined snap:

sudo snap install ecrou
sudo snap connect ecrou:kvm

Usage

$ ecrou run -it ubuntu
root@ecrou-vm-m2glhl:/# 

Embed ecrou into your project

ecrou is both a library and a tiny CLI frontend around it. The library is embeddable into any project, allowing to use microVMs easily.

Rust

ecrou is a Rust library, which can just be called:

use ecrou::vm::RunOptions;
use ecrou::NoProgress;

fn main() -> ecrou::Result<std::process::ExitCode> {
    let code = ecrou::vm::run(
        &RunOptions {
            image: "ubuntu:resolute".into(),
            command: vec!["uname".into(), "-a".into()],
            ..RunOptions::default()
        },
        &NoProgress,
    )?;
    Ok(std::process::ExitCode::from(code.clamp(0, 255) as u8))
}
