grunt-docker-io

Build and Push Docker Images

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-docker-io --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-docker-io');

The "docker_io" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named docker_io to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig(). The docker_io section should include a target, in the example below we've named the target testimage.

grunt.initConfig({
  docker_io: {
    testimage: {
      options: {
        dockerFileLocation: '.',
        buildName: 'dockerIO',
        tag: 'latest',
        pushLocation: 'https://hub.docker.io',
        username: 'drgrove',
        push: true,
        force: true
      }
    }
  },
});

Usage Examples

Default Options

In this example, the default options are used to build the docker file in the current directory. The built image will be pushed to process.env.USER's test repository in the docker hub with a latest tag.

grunt.initConfig({
  docker_io: {
    testimage: {
      options: {
        dockerFileLocation: '.',
        buildName: 'test',
        tag: 'latest',
        pushLocation: 'https://hub.docker.io',
        username: process.env.USER, // Current logged in user
        push: true,
        force: false
      }
    }
  },
});

Contributing

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
