docker-api
==========
[![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/docker-api.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/rb/docker-api) [![travis-ci](https://travis-ci.org/swipely/docker-api.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/swipely/docker-api) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/swipely/docker-api.svg)](https://codeclimate.com/github/swipely/docker-api)

This gem provides an object-oriented interface to the [Docker Engine API](https://docs.docker.com/develop/sdk/). Every method listed there is implemented. At the time of this writing, docker-api is meant to interface with Docker version 1.4.*

If you're interested in using Docker to package your apps, we recommend the [dockly](https://github.com/swipely/dockly) gem. Dockly provides a simple DSL for describing Docker containers that install as Debian packages and are controlled by upstart scripts.

Installation
------------

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'docker-api'
```

And then run:

```shell
$ bundle install
```

Alternatively, if you wish to just use the gem in a script, you can run:

```shell
$ gem install docker-api
```

Finally, just add `require 'docker'` to the top of the file using this gem.

Usage
-----

docker-api is designed to be very lightweight. Almost no state is cached (aside from id's which are immutable) to ensure that each method call's information is up to date. As such, just about every external method represents an API call.

At this time, basic `podman` support has been added via the podman docker-compatible API socket.

## Starting up

Follow the [installation instructions](https://docs.docker.com/install/), and then run:

```shell
$ sudo docker -d
```

This will daemonize Docker so that it can be used for the remote API calls.

### Host

If you're running Docker locally as a socket, there is no setup to do in Ruby. If you're not using a socket or have changed the path of the socket, you'll have to point the gem to your socket or local/remote port. For example:

```ruby
Docker.url = 'tcp://example.com:5422'
```

Two things to note here. The first is that this gem uses [excon](https://github.com/excon/excon), so any of the options that are valid for `Excon.new` are also valid for `Docker.options`. Second, by default Docker runs on a socket. The gem will assume you want to connect to the socket unless you specify otherwise.

Also, you may set the above variables via `ENV` variables. For example:

```shell
$ DOCKER_URL=unix:///var/docker.sock irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'docker'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> Docker.url
=> "unix:///var/docker.sock"
irb(main):003:0> Docker.options
=> {}
```

```shell
$ DOCKER_URL=tcp://example.com:1000 irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'docker'
=> true
irb(main):003:0> Docker.url
=> "tcp://example.com:1000"
irb(main):004:0> Docker.options
=> {}
```

### SSL

When running docker using SSL, setting the DOCKER_CERT_PATH will configure docker-api to use SSL.
The cert path is a folder that contains the cert, key and cacert files.
docker-api is expecting the files to be named: cert.pem, key.pem, and ca.pem.
If your files are named different, you'll want to set your options explicity:

```
Docker.options = {
    client_cert: File.join(cert_path, 'cert.pem'),
    client_key: File.join(cert_path, 'key.pem'),
    ssl_ca_file: File.join(cert_path, 'ca.pem'),
    scheme: 'https'
}
```

If you want to load the cert files from a variable, e.g. you want to load them from ENV as needed on Heroku:

```
cert_store = OpenSSL::X509::Store.new
certificate = OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new ENV["DOCKER_CA"]
cert_store.add_cert certificate

Docker.options = {
  client_cert_data: ENV["DOCKER_CERT"],
  client_key_data: ENV["DOCKER_KEY"],
  ssl_cert_store: cert_store,
  scheme: 'https'
}
```

If you need to disable SSL verification, set the DOCKER_SSL_VERIFY variable to 'false'.

## Global calls

All of the following examples require a connection to a Docker server. See the <a href="#starting-up">Starting up</a> section above for more information.

```ruby
require 'docker'
# => true

# docker command for reference: docker version
Docker.version
# => { 'Version' => '0.5.2', 'GoVersion' => 'go1.1' }

# docker command for reference: docker info
Docker.info
# => { "Debug" => false, "Containers" => 187, "Images" => 196, "NFd" => 10, "NGoroutines" => 9, "MemoryLimit" => true }

# docker command for reference: docker login
Docker.authenticate!('username' => 'docker-fan-boi', 'password' => 'i<3docker', 'email' => 'dockerboy22@aol.com')
# => true

# docker command for reference: docker login registry.gitlab.com
Docker.authenticate!('username' => 'docker-fan-boi', 'password' => 'i<3docker', 'email' => 'dockerboy22@aol.com', 'serveraddress' => 'https://registry.gitlab.com/v1/')
# => true
```

## Images

Just about every method here has a one-to-one mapping with the [Images](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/api/docker_remote_api_v1.14/#2-2-images) section of the API. If an API call accepts query parameters, these can be passed as an Hash to it's corresponding method. Also, note that `Docker::Image.new` is a private method, so you must use `.create`, `.build`, `.build_from_dir`, `build_from_tar`, or `.import` to make an instance.

```ruby
require 'docker'
# => true

# Pull an Image.
# docker command for reference: docker pull ubuntu:14.04
image = Docker::Image.create('fromImage' => 'ubuntu:14.04')
# => Docker::Image { :id => ae7ffbcd1, :connection => Docker::Connection { :url => tcp://localhost, :options => {:port=>2375} } }

## Containers

Much like the Images, this object also has a one-to-one mapping with the [Containers](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/api/docker_remote_api_v1.14/#2-1-containers) section of the API. Also like Images, `.new` is a private method, so you must use `.create` to make an instance.

```ruby
require 'docker'

# Create a Container.
container = Docker::Container.create('Cmd' => ['ls'], 'Image' => 'base')
# => Docker::Container { :id => 492510dd38e4, :connection => Docker::Connection { :url => tcp://localhost, :options => {:port=>2375} } }

## JSON encoded values

For JSON encoded values, nothing is done implicitly, meaning you need to explicitly call `to_json` on your parameter before the call. For example, to request all of the Containers using a filter:

```ruby
require 'docker'

# Request all of the Containers, filtering by status exited.
Docker::Container.all(all: true, filters: { status: ["exited"] }.to_json)
# => [Docker::Container { :id => , :connection => Docker::Connection { :url => tcp://localhost, :options => {:port=>2375} } }]

# Request all of the Container, filtering by label_name.
Docker::Container.all(all: true, filters: { label: [ "label_name"  ]  }.to_json)
# => [Docker::Container { :id => , :connection => Docker::Connection { :url => tcp://localhost, :options => {:port=>2375} } }]

# Request all of the Container, filtering by label label_name that have the value label_value_.
Docker::Container.all(all: true, filters: { label: [ "label_name=label_value"  ]  }.to_json)
# => [Docker::Container { :id => , :connection => Docker::Connection { :url => tcp://localhost, :options => {:port=>2375} } }]
```

This applies for all parameters that are requested to be JSON encoded by the docker api.

## Events

```ruby
require 'docker'

# Action on a stream of events as they come in
Docker::Event.stream { |event| puts event; break }
Docker::Event { :status => create, :id => aeb8b55726df63bdd69d41e1b2650131d7ce32ca0d2fa5cbc75f24d0df34c7b0, :from => base:latest, :time => 1416958554 }
# => nil

# Action on all events after a given time (will execute the block for all events up till the current time, and wait to execute on any new events after)
Docker::Event.since(1416958763) { |event| puts event; puts Time.now.to_i; break }
Docker::Event { :status => die, :id => 663005cdeb56f50177c395a817dbc8bdcfbdfbdaef329043b409ecb97fb68d7e, :from => base:latest, :time => 1416958764 }
1416959041
# => nil
```

These methods are prone to read timeouts.  `Docker.options[:read_timeout]` will need to be made higher than 60 seconds if expecting a long time between events.

## Connecting to Multiple Servers

By default, each object connects to the connection specified by `Docker.connection`. If you need to connect to multiple servers, you can do so by specifying the connection on `#new` or in the utilizing class method. For example:

```ruby
require 'docker'

Docker::Container.all({}, Docker::Connection.new('tcp://example.com:2375', {}))
```

## Rake Task

To create images through `rake`, a DSL task is provided. For example:


```ruby
require 'rake'
require 'docker'

image 'repo:tag' do
  image = Docker::Image.create('fromImage' => 'repo', 'tag' => 'old_tag')
  image = Docker::Image.run('rm -rf /etc').commit
  image.tag('repo' => 'repo', 'tag' => 'tag')
end

image 'repo:new_tag' => 'repo:tag' do
  image = Docker::Image.create('fromImage' => 'repo', 'tag' => 'tag')
  image = image.insert_local('localPath' => 'some-file.tar.gz', 'outputPath' => '/')
  image.tag('repo' => 'repo', 'tag' => 'new_tag')
end
```
