grunt-dock

Build Status Code Climate

A Grunt dock for Docker.

Grunt plugin to manage your Docker images & containers.

The main goal of this plugin is to accelerate the development flow with Docker. But it can also be used to deploy your app in a production environment.

Last but not least, Grunt-dock is based on the module Dockerode. Input options can be passed to this module and return values are unchanged.

Why a Grunt plugin?

The idea came when I was developping a Docker container. I used to enter a lot of commands like build/start/kill then cleaning all the stuff and restarting the workflow.

Before Grunt-Dock, to clean Docker images/containers:

docker ps -a -q --filter "status=exited" | xargs docker rm
docker rmi `docker images -q --filter "dangling=true"`

After:

grunt dock:clean

Installation

npm install grunt-dock

Commands

Grunt-dock supports these commands:

  • list images or containers
  • build images
  • push push built images to a Docker registry
  • pull pull images from a Docker registry to one or more hosts
  • clean dangling images and exited containers
  • start/stop/restart/kill/pause/unpause containers
  • logs containers

Grunt configuration

Grunt-Dock supports main and targets level configuration.

Here is a basic Grunt configuration:

dock: {
  options: {
  
    registry: <Docker registry URL>,
    auth : {
      email : <email to use to connect to Docker registry>,
      username : <Docker registry username>,
      password : <Docker registry password>
    }
  
    docker: {
      // docker connection
      // See Dockerode for options
    }
  
    // It is possible to define images in the 'default' grunt option
    // The command will look like 'grunt dock:build'
    images: {
      'dockerapp': { // Name to use for Docker
        dockerfile: 'Dockerfile',
        options: { 
          build:   { /* extra options to docker build   */ },
          create:  { /* extra options to docker create  */ },
          start:   { /* extra options to docker start   */ },
          stop:    { /* extra options to docker stop    */ },
          kill:    { /* extra options to docker kill    */ },
          logs:    { /* extra options to docker logs    */ },
          pause:   { /* extra options to docker pause   */ },
          unpause: { /* extra options to docker unpause */ },
          push:    { /* extra options to docker push */ },
          pull:    [/* Docker connections (one for every node from which to pull */],
          run:     {
                     docker: [/* Docker connections (one for every node from which 
                              the container has to run */],
                     cmd : [/* Commands to execute upon running the container */],
                     create : /* Container create options */,
                     start : /* Containder start options */
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }, // options
  
  dev: {
    options: {
    
      // You can also define images by target
      // This case, to invoke a command: 'grunt dock:dev:build'
      images: {
      'appname': { // Name to use for Docker
           dockerfile: 'Dockerfile',
           options: { 
             build:   { /* extra options to docker build   */ },
             create:  { /* extra options to docker create  */ },
             start:   { /* extra options to docker start   */ },
             stop:    { /* extra options to docker stop    */ },
             kill:    { /* extra options to docker kill    */ },
             logs:    { /* extra options to docker logs    */ },
             pause:   { /* extra options to docker pause   */ },
             unpause: { /* extra options to docker unpause */ }
           }
        }
      }
    }
  } // dev env
} // dock

The property 'dockerfile' supports:

  • tar archive any tarballs supported by Docker (.tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz). It will be passed directly to the Docker server.
  • directory Grunt-Dock will create a tarball (gz compressed) of this directory before sending it to Docker.
  • plain file Grunt-Dock will create a tarball containing 1 "Dockerfile" file.

You can define some specifics options to pass for each commands of each images (start, stop, build, etc.). See Docker API/Dockerode documentations.

To use it, simply enter these commands:

# Build
grunt dock:build
grunt dock:dev:build

# Start, stop, restart, kill, pause, unpause, logs (replace sample action by right one)
grunt dock:start
grunt dock:dev:start

# List
grunt dock:list
grunt dock:dev:list

# Clean
grunt dock:clean
grunt dock:dev:clean

It is possible to only apply a command for a specific image. For instance, to only start the container 'appname', enter:

# Start only appname container
grunt dock:start:appname
# for 'dev' target:
grunt dock:dev:start:appname

list and clean commands allow a third param: image or container to only list/clean this type:

# List only images
grunt dock:list:image
grunt dock:dev:list:image

# List only containers
grunt dock:list:container
grunt dock:dev:list:container
