Shipper
Shipper is a fabric for docker - tool for orchestrating docker containers. Supports parallel execution and can generate command line interface.
hello.py:
from shipper import *
@command
def hello():
print Shipper().containers(pretty=True)
run()
Now your file is a fully functional command line tool that talks to local docker!
python hello.py -h
python hello.py hello -h
python hello.py hello
The fun part is you can turn your tiny hello.py to a massive scale docker client in 1 change:
print Shipper(["host-a", "host-b", "host-c", "host-d"]).containers(pretty=True)
All the steps would be executed in parallel.
More complex example:
from shipper import Shipper, run, command
@command
def build(tag, path):
s = Shipper()
s.build(tag=tag, path=path)
@command
def ps(all=False, running=True):
s = Shipper(["host-a", "host-b"])
print s.containers(pretty=True, all=all, running=running)
@command
def start(image, command, ports=None):
if ports:
ports = ports.split(",")
s = Shipper()
s.run(image, command, ports=ports, once=True)
@command
def stop(image=None):
s = Shipper()
s.stop(*s.containers(image=image, running=True))
run()
Now you can use the env.py file as your command line tool, shipper has generated the command line interface.
python env.py ps --all
python env.py build base ~/images/base
python env.py build stop --image dev/.*
Setup
git clone git@github.com:mailgun/shipper.git
cd shipper
python setup.py install
Status
Undergoing development. Is already useful for building dev environments.
