NAME

       container-get - Download a container

SYNOPSIS

       container get ['OPTIONS']
       cnt g ['OPTIONS']

DESCRIPTION

       The container get command downloads a container based on a script.

   Scripts
       The following download scripts are available:

       curl:  Basic script to build Debian based container, see container-create-curl(1).

       default:
              Symlink  (if  existing)  to  a  download  script  which  is  used  if no script was
              specified.   On   Debian   based   system   this    can    be    managed    through
              update-alternatives(1),      i.e.      'sudo      update-alternatives      --config
              container_get-script'.
