dockerc

Dockerc

Note: this is alpha software. The interfaces are not stable.

A lightweight docker client that focuses on:

• returning simple data structures instead of any defined object model
• normalization of parameters
• exceptions thrown in exceptional cases
• explicit code to reduce confusion

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'dockerc'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install dockerc

Usage

# connect to unix:///var/run/docker.sock
c = Dockerc::Client.new
# connect to an alternate docker endpoint
c = Dockerc::Client.new(docker_url: 'http://localhost:4243')

# pull an image from the public repository
c.pull_image 'gorsuch/litterbox'

# launch a container
c.create_container :image => 'gorsuch/litterbox', :cmd => 'date'

# list all containers
c.containers
#=> [{:command=>"date ", :created=>1392044336, :id=>"ea1c87570244276041caafb69ab2fd102c974b0b214e885304de00222b9f6bd0", :image=>"gorsuch/litterbox:latest", :names=>["/desperate_hawking"], :ports=>[], :status=>"Exit 0"}]
