DRYdock is a project that aims to simplify working locally with many semi-connected projects/microservices.
This was created to help with the following use case:
You work on a team that uses other teams services. Sometimes you might want to run one or more of those services locally and connect them to your own. Either for testing, or finding a bug. To do this with a standard compose file you would need all the services you would ever want to use pulled down, and if you didn't, docker could throw an error. With DRYdock all the services you have access to are listed in the UI, and you can pick and choose which ones to run. DRYdock will then create a compose file with only those services, and run it.
export DRYDOCK_DIR="<dir on path>" && touch $DRYDOCK_DIR/drydock && wget https://github.com/peterHoburg/DRYdock/releases/latest/download/drydock -O $DRYDOCK_DIR/drydock && chmod +x $DRYDOCK_DIR/drydock
Same as installing
Create a drydock.yaml file in the root of the project. This contains keys that will overwrite the default values in the UI
- cd into the directory that contains your root docker-compose.yml file
- Run
drydock - navigate to localhost:1994 (default port) in your browser
