Description : Builds and runs Dockerfiles in one command
dockerscript is a cli docker plugin which enables execution of Dockerfiles
via a single "docker script" command. This command builds an image, then
starts a container with that image and attaches to it via a tty.
For example, "docker script from ubuntu" starts an instance of ubuntu, since
"from ubuntu" is a valid Dockerfile.
You could pass a link to Dockerfile or directory containing it to this
command, e.g. "docker script /path/to/my/Dockerfile"
I personally use this package. Essentially, it is an effort to try make docker
more accessible for basic prototyping. Some of prototyping use cases might be:
- testing out some script / functionality in an isolated environment before
running it locally
- executing same Dockerfile in different Linux distributions to verify that
it works on each of them
- simple virtualization; for example, I created this request via debian
which was ran by `docker script from debian` command, because
`reportbug` is not available in ubuntu, which is may daily driver
Also, I need a sponsor for this package, as I am not a Debian Developer
and cannot upload it to a distro myself
