6. 实战案例

6.1 基础使用示例

# 启动测试容器
docker run -d –name diff_test nginx:latest

# 进入容器进行修改
docker exec diff_test bash -c "echo test > /tmp/test.log && rm /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf"

# 检查变更
docker diff diff_test

典型输出：

C /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
D /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
A /tmp/test.log
A /tmp

6.2 变更分析脚本

#!/bin/bash
# 分析容器变更类型
container=$1
echo "变更分析报告 – $(date)"
echo "================================="
docker diff $container | awk '
BEGIN { a=0; d=0; c=0 }
/^A/ { a++ }
/^D/ { d++ }
/^C/ { c++ }
END {
printf "新增文件: %d\\n删除文件: %d\\n修改文件: %d\\n", a, d, c
}'
