About

DockerCopy - is a productivity tool. By placing docker_copy.py and docker_copy.conf into your git directory it would be able to track all changed and unstaged files and copy all of them in one go to Docker image.

Features:

• Copy changed/untracked files from git project into running docker container
• Container Id can be specified in config file or passed as parameter
• Has verification if given container Id actually running
• If container Id not specified, will automatically select currently running container if it is only one
• if multiple containers are running, it will ask to select desired one, or can copy to all of them
• Support special path mapping which can be specified in config if project structure doesnt match to docker
• Additional files ()outside of git project scope) can be also added trough config to copy into container

Requirements:

Please install all requirements before executing:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Note: pypiwin32 is requirement only for Windows platform.
Note2: It is expected that docker is an Linux instance

Usage:

1. Place docker_copy.py and (optional) docker_copy.conf into git repository from which you willing to copy files into running container
2. Specify container id by one of the following methods:
   • Add in docker_copy.conf as [Optional]docker_container_id parameter
   • Pass container id as argument: docker_copy.py <abc123456_id>
   • Program can pick up automatically id of running container if it is the only one container which currently running
   • Select option from list - if multiples containers are currently running
3. (Optional) Specify path mapping in docker_copy.conf as [Optional]path_mapping if project files path is different from container path where: key is local path and value is container path
   

   Example:
   path_mapping = {"local_dir": "docker_path"}
   

Config:

docker_copy.conf has several options:

1. docker_container_id - takes container id or empty

docker_container_id = 8bcc66aa8ad7

2. path_mapping - takes dictionary of pairs: {local_path: docker_path}

path_mapping = {"*": "/opt/myapp"} - would map all changed files to /opt/myapp/*
or
{"/tmp/path": "/opt/myapp"} - would map all changed files in /tmp/path to /opt/myapp/*

mapping can be combained:
{"*": "/opt/myapp", "/tmp/path": "/opt/myapp", "keyN": "valN"}

3. other_files - takes dictionary of pairs: {"full_local_path": "docker_path"} - and copy other additional files (outside of git projects) to the container.
   Logic is the same as with path_mapping
