shell - How to check if a process is running inside docker container?

Question

[Updated1] I have a shell which will change TCP kernel parameters in some functions, but now I need to make this shell run in Docker container, that means, the shell need to know it is running inside a container and stop configuring the kernel.

Now I'm not sure how to achieve that, here is the contents of /proc/self/cgroup inside the container:

9:hugetlb:/
8:perf_event:/
7:blkio:/
6:freezer:/
5:devices:/
4:memory:/
3:cpuacct:/
2:cpu:/docker/25ef774c390558ad8c4e9a8590b6a1956231aae404d6a7aba4dde320ff569b8b
1:cpuset:/

Any flags above can I use to figure out if this process is running inside a container?

[Updated2]: I have also noticed Determining if a process runs inside lxc/Docker, but it seems not working in this case, the content in /proc/1/cgroup of my container is:

8:perf_event:/
7:blkio:/
6:freezer:/
5:devices:/
4:memory:/
3:cpuacct:/
2:cpu:/docker/25ef774c390558ad8c4e9a8590b6a1956231aae404d6a7aba4dde320ff569b8b
1:cpuset:/

No /lxc/containerid

Docker creates .dockerenv and .dockerinit (removed in v1.11) files at the top of the container's directory tree so you might want to check if those exist.

Something like this should work.

#!/bin/bash
if [ -f /.dockerenv ]; then
    echo "I'm inside matrix ;(";
else
    echo "I'm living in real world!";
