# Plugin Config Version 1 of Plugin V2
This document outlines the format of the V0 plugin configuration.
Plugin configs describe the various constituents of a docker plugin. Plugin
configs can be serialized to JSON format with the following media types:
| Config Type | Media Type |
|-------------|-----------------------------------------|
| config | "application/vnd.docker.plugin.v1+json" |
## *Config* Field Descriptions
Config provides the base accessible fields for working with V0 plugin format
in the registry.
- **`description`** *string*
description of the plugin
- **`documentation`** *string*
link to the documentation about the plugin
- **`interface`** *PluginInterface*
interface implemented by the plugins, struct consisting of the following fields
- **`types`** *string array*
types indicate what interface(s) the plugin currently implements.
currently supported:
- **docker.volumedriver/1.0**
- **docker.networkdriver/1.0**
- **docker.ipamdriver/1.0**
- **docker.authz/1.0**
- **docker.logdriver/1.0**
- **docker.metricscollector/1.0**
- **`socket`** *string*
socket is the name of the socket the engine should use to communicate with the plugins.
the socket will be created in `/run/docker/plugins`.
- **`entrypoint`** *string array*
entrypoint of the plugin, see [`ENTRYPOINT`](../reference/builder.md#entrypoint)
- **`workdir`** *string*
workdir of the plugin, see [`WORKDIR`](../reference/builder.md#workdir)
- **`network`** *PluginNetwork*
network of the plugin, struct consisting of the following fields
- **`type`** *string*
network type.
currently supported:
- **bridge**
- **host**
- **none**
- **`mounts`** *PluginMount array*
mount of the plugin, struct consisting of the following fields, see [`MOUNTS`](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/blob/master/config.md#mounts)
- **`name`** *string*
name of the mount.
- **`description`** *string*
description of the mount.
- **`source`** *string*
source of the mount.
- **`destination`** *string*
destination of the mount.
- **`type`** *string*
mount type.
- **`options`** *string array*
options of the mount.
- **`ipchost`** *boolean*
Access to host ipc namespace.
- **`pidhost`** *boolean*
Access to host pid namespace.
- **`propagatedMount`** *string*
path to be mounted as rshared, so that mounts under that path are visible to docker. This is useful for volume plugins.
This path will be bind-mounted outside of the plugin rootfs so it's contents
are preserved on upgrade.
- **`env`** *PluginEnv array*
env of the plugin, struct consisting of the following fields
- **`name`** *string*
name of the env.
- **`description`** *string*
description of the env.
- **`value`** *string*
value of the env.
- **`args`** *PluginArgs*
args of the plugin, struct consisting of the following fields
- **`name`** *string*
name of the args.
- **`description`** *string*
description of the args.
- **`value`** *string array*
values of the args.
- **`linux`** *PluginLinux*
- **`capabilities`** *string array*
capabilities of the plugin (*Linux only*), see list [`here`](https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/blob/master/libcontainer/SPEC.md#security)
- **`allowAllDevices`** *boolean*
If `/dev` is bind mounted from the host, and allowAllDevices is set to true, the plugin will have `rwm` access to all devices on the host.
- **`devices`** *PluginDevice array*
device of the plugin, (*Linux only*), struct consisting of the following fields, see [`DEVICES`](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/blob/master/config-linux.md#devices)
- **`name`** *string*
name of the device.
- **`description`** *string*
description of the device.
- **`path`** *string*
path of the device.
