  • docker-flask-example

    A production ready example Flask app that's using Docker and Docker Compose.

  • I usually end up with project specific "run" scripts which are just shell scripts so I can do things like `./run shell` to drop into the shell of a container, or `./run rails db:migrate` to run a command in a container.

    Here's a few project specific examples. They all have similar run scripts:

        - https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example

  • docker-django-example

    A production ready example Django app that's using Docker and Docker Compose.

  • docker-swarm-proxy

    What if you wanted a docker exec, but for Docker swarm? - Control any node in the swarm from your CLI

  • I saw your comment and am wondering what in particular you are struggling with.

    I recently fixed one of my biggest pet peeves with docker swarm - the inability to directly exec into a service without first SSHing to the host the task is running on.

    Maybe your issue is in this ballpark? Happy to exchange notes on this. If you are looking for a community of Swarm users, check out https://devops.fan (that's a discord hosted by Bret Fisher)
