Problem

We want to run 1..N docker containers from our local filesystem, and get a GUI display of their status.

Dependencies

• docker
• Java
• Boot

Getting Started

To build and run the server:

# Build a JAR file containing the server
boot backend
# Run the server
(cd target && java -jar backend/project.jar)

To build the Clojurescript:

# In development
boot frontend-dev

OR

# In production
boot frontend-prod

Overview

This app consists of a simple interface. A user can specify an app that exists on their filesystem and run it in a docker container on a given port.

So if there is an app at /Users/me/my-app, and /Users/me/my-app contains a Dockerfile in its root, then the user can visit localhost:3000, and run the app on whatever port they choose by clicking through the interface.

There is a small server component, with three api endpoints:

• /api/apps/build (builds a docker image for the given app)
• /api/apps/run (runs a docker container for the given app)
• /api/apps/stop (stops a docker container for the given app)

The client interface is a Clojurescript + Reagent app, using those endpoints.
