Rancher Docker Image for 0.6.14

As of December 2021, this image is updated with all the links.

Make sure that you have the following environment variables set in your computer:

• RANCHER_URL
• RANCHER_ACCESS_KEY
• RANCHER_SECRET_KEY

You need to get these by logging in to Rancher.

Now, you need to build the image once using the following command from inside the project:

docker build -t rancher_local .

Once done, add the following entry in your ~/.bash_profile:

alias rancher='docker run -ti -v /some/folder/in/your/computer:/root/.rancher -e RANCHER_URL=$RANCHER_URL -e RANCHER_ACCESS_KEY=$RANCHER_ACCESS_KEY -e RANCHER_SECRET_KEY=$RANCHER_SECRET_KEY --rm rancher_local'

Replace /some/folder/in/your/computer with a folder in your computer.

If all goes well, the first command must be the following:

rancher config

It will ask you for the environments, etc. and it will be saved in the volume folder.

After that you can run all the usual commands as it is, like:

rancher ps
rancher logs -f container-name

etc.
