A daemon wrapper around Dokku
A VM running Ubuntu 14.04 x64 or later with Dokku v0.4.9 installed
As a user with access to sudo:
git clone https://github.com/dokku/dokku-daemon
cd dokku-daemon
sudo make install
As a user with access to sudo:
git clone https://github.com/dokku/dokku-daemon
cd dokku-daemon
sudo apt-get install socat
sudo make install
- Daemon listens on a UNIX domain socket (by default created at
/var/run/dokku-daemon/dokku-daemon.sock) - Commands issued to the daemon take the same form as those used with
dokkuon the command-line - Command names are validated before execution
- Responses are sent as line-delimited JSON
- No authentication layer (local/container connections only)
- Multiple client connections are supported but only one command will be processed at a given time
Example command and response:
< apps:create demo-app
> {"ok":true,"output":"Creating demo-app... done"}
A development environment can be started with the provided Vagrantfile. To start the box and run the test suite:
# on development machine
vagrant up
vagrant ssh
# over vagrant ssh session
cd /dokku-daemon
make test
The executable and init scripts are symlinked to their respective directories rather than copied. To test using Systemd, start Vagrant with environment variable BOX_NAME set to bento/ubuntu-15.04.
