container-factory

container-factory produces Docker images from tarballs of application source code. It accepts archives with Dockerfiles, but if your application's language is supported, it can automatically add a suitable Dockerfile.

Currently, only node.js is supported, marked by the presence of a package.json.

Installation

Make sure you have Docker set up. We access the Docker API, so we pass that through when running the container. The Docker server is autodetected in the same way as the Docker CLI does, and like the Docker CLI, we default to /var/run/docker.sock.

Here's how to run container-factory in a container:

docker run -d -p 9001:3000 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock lsqio/container-factory

API

Build a container. Takes an application tarball as body. Modeled on Docker's /build API

Parameters:

* t: Docker tag to publish the resulting Docker image as.

Response

Docker-style progress reporting, with the push happening right after the build.

Build progress:

{"stream": "Step 1..."}
{"stream": "..."}
{"error": "Error...", "errorDetail": {"code": 123, "message": "Error..."}}

Push progress:

{"status": "Pushing..."}
{"status": "Pushing", "progress": "1/? (n/a)", "progressDetail": {"current": 1}}}
