CLI for Docker Cloud

Project description

## Installation

In order to install the Docker Cloud CLI, you can use pip install:

pip install docker-cloud

For Mac OS users, you can use brew install:

brew install docker-cloud

Now you can start using it:

usage: docker-cloud [-h] [-v]

{action,container,event,exec,login,node,nodecluster,repository,run,service,stack,tag,trigger,up} …

Docker Cloud CLI

optional arguments:
-h, --help

show this help message and exit

-v, --version

show program’s version number and exit

Docker Cloud CLI commands:
{action,container,event,exec,login,node,nodecluster,repository,run,service,stack,tag,trigger,up}

action Action-related operations container Container-related operations event Get real time Docker Cloud events exec Run a command in a running container login Please use “docker login” to log into Docker Cloud node Node-related operations nodecluster NodeCluster-related operations repository Repository-related operations run Create and run a new service service Service-related operations stack Stack-related operations tag Tag-related operations trigger Trigger-related operations up Create and deploy a stack

## Docker image

You can also install the CLI via Docker:

docker run dockercloud/cli -h

You will have to pass your username and password as environment variables, as the credentials in the image will not persist by default:

docker run -it -e DOCKERCLOUD_USER=username -e DOCKERCLOUD_PASS=password dockercloud/cli

To make things easier, you might want to use an alias for it:

alias docker-cloud=”docker run -it -e DOCKERCLOUD_USER=username -e DOCKERCLOUD_PASS=password –rm dockercloud/cli”

or

alias docker-cloud=”docker run -it -v ~/.docker:/root/.docker:ro –rm dockercloud/cli”

Then, you can run commands like:

docker-cloud service docker-cloud exec

## Authentication

In order to manage your apps and containers running on Docker Cloud, you need to log into Docker in any of the following ways (will be used in this order):

  • Login using Docker CLI:

    $ docker login Username: admin Password: Login succeeded!

  • Set the environment variables DOCKERCLOUD_USER, DOCKERCLOUD_PASS:

    export DOCKERCLOUD_USER=<username> export DOCKERCLOUD_PASS=<password>

  • Set the environment variables DOCKERCLOUD_AUTH:

DOCKERCLOUD_AUTH is the environment variable injected via API roles

_Note: docker-cloud CLI and python-dockercloud will pick up the auth in the following order:_

  • DOCKERCLOUD_AUTH

  • DOCKERCLOUD_USER, DOCKERCLOUD_APIKEY

  • DOCKERCLOUD_USER, DOCKERCLOUD_PASS

  • ~/.docker/config.json

## Namespace

To use teams and orgs, you need to set “DOCKERCLOUD_NAMESPACE=yourteam”. After that, all the docker-cloud commands will be executed in the specified namespace.

For example:

export DOCKERCLOUD_NAMESPACE=yourteam docker-cloud container ps docker-cloud service ps

You can also set the environment variable before each command:

DOCKERCLOUD_NAMESPACE=yourteam docker container ps DOCKERCLOUD_NAMESPACE=youracc docker container ps
