Description

This package allows you to manipulate docker images, containers & more from Emacs.

Provides a major mode `dockerfile-mode' for use with the standard `Dockerfile' file format. Additional convenience functions allow images to be built easily.

docker-tramp.el offers a TRAMP method for Docker containers.

Module Flags

This module provides no flags.

Plugins

• docker
• docker-tramp
• dockerfile-mode

Prerequisites

This modules assumes `docker`, `docker-compose` and `docker-machine` binaries are installed and accessible from your PATH.

TODO: Features

Docker control

Use M-x docker, select a resource then then mark or unmark items using the following keybindings (for more marking possibilities, check out https://github.com/politza/tablist):

Binding	Description
?	List actions
l	Configure listing
m	Mark item
u	Unmark item
t	Toggle marks
U	Unmark all
s	Sort
* r	Mark items by regexp
<	Shrink column
>	Enlarge column
C-c C-e	Export to csv

Supported commands

• docker container: attach, cp, diff, inspect, kill, logs, pause, rename, restart, rm, start, stop, unpause
• docker image: inspect, pull, push, rm, run, tag
• docker network: rm
• docker volume: rm
• docker-machine: create, env, restart, rm, start, stop
• docker-compose: build, config, create, down, exec, logs, pull, push, remove, restart, run, start, stop, up You can also enter `dired` or open a file inside a container or volume.

TRAMP

Offers the TRAMP method `docker` to access running containers

C-x C-f /docker:user@container:/path/to/file

where user is the user that you want to use (optional) container is the id or name of the container

Configuration

Popups

Thanks to [magit-popup](https://github.com/magit/magit-popup), all the popups default arguments can be customized. For example, here is how to customize the arguments for `docker-image-run-popup`:

(setq docker-image-run-arguments '("-i" "-t" "--rm"))

or inside a use-package declaration:

(use-package docker
  :ensure t
  :bind ("C-c d" . docker)
  :custom (docker-image-run-arguments '("-i" "-t" "--rm")))

You can also customize these using M-x customize-variable.

### Others

Variable	Description	Default
docker-command	The docker binary to use	`docker`
docker-container-default-sort-key	Sort key for docker containers	`("Image")`
docker-container-shell-file-name	Shell to use when entering containers	`/bin/bash`
docker-image-default-sort-key	Sort key for docker images	`("Repository")`
docker-machine-default-sort-key	Sort key for docker machines	`("Name")`
docker-network-default-sort-key	Sort key for docker networks	`("Name")`
docker-run-as-root	Run docker as root	`nil`
docker-volume-default-sort-key	Sort key for docker volumes	`("Driver")`

dockerfile-mode

By default, the keyword completion function detects the docker-compose version of the current buffer and suggests the appropriate keywords.

You can change the candidates offered by the backend by customizing docker-compose-keywords

Troubleshooting

Tramp hangs on Alpine container

Busyboxes built with the `ENABLE_FEATURE_EDITING_ASK_TERMINAL' config option send also escape sequences, which `tramp-wait-for-output' doesn't ignores correctly. Tramp upstream fixed in [98a5112][] and is available since Tramp>=2.3.

For older versions of Tramp you can dump [docker-tramp-compat.el][] in your `load-path' somewhere and add the following to your `init.el', which overwrites `tramp-wait-for-output' with the patch applied:

(require 'docker-tramp-compat)
