Author: MartinRamm

This is something I created to increase my productivity with docker/docker-compose. Feel free to create a PR with improvements - but please keep this documentation up to date!

Requirements

1. docker / docker-compose must be accessible to non-root users
2. fzf (https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#installation)

Installation instructions

1. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/MartinRamm/fzf-docker.git
2. Add to your .zshrc or .bashrc file this command: source /path/to/docker-fzf
3. (Optional): Customize the de command as described in Default command for de

Default command for de

The command used to exec into a container is dependent on the base image. The fallback command used to exec into a container is similar to zsh || bash || ash || sh. Useful standards are already implemented for images like mysql or mongo (PRs to add more default commands are appreciated).

You may however add custom commands that de will then use to exec into a container. To do this

1. cd /path/to/docker-fuzzy-search-commands
2. copy the .docker-fuzzy-search-exec.template to your home directory, omitting the .template extension: cp {,~/}.docker-fuzzy-search-exec.template && mv ~/.docker-fuzzy-search-exec{.template,}
3. Customize the script as described in the file.

Learning by doing

fzf mode = single

The image below shows a user execing into the container infrastructure_some-mysql_1_6fe4edd94d07 container with the de command. Because this script has a sensible default command registered for the base image of this container, mysql is directly opened (with the password set in the environment variable).

The command de was entered into a terminal. The user now typed sql to narrow the search for containers that contain that phrase. When the correct container was selected by the user pressing Enter. Alternatively, the user could have used the arrow keys to select the correct container name.

optional command arguments

This image shows the dl command executed with 10m as an optional argument. Therefore the command will only show the logs of the selected container produced in the last 10 minutes, instead of all available logs for this container.

fzf mode = multiple

The image below shows a user starting the services whiteboard-1.0 and redis with the dcu command. To mark a containers/services in fzf, press on the tab key. To deselect, press shift + tab. To remove the input, press Alt + Backspace. Finally, press Enter to start the command. Note that when pressing Enter, the selected item will not be added automatically to your selection. If you only want to mark one container, you don't have to select it with tab - you can follow the instructions of fzf single mode.
