containator 0.0.4

Runs docker containers with pre-defined parameters

Runs docker containers with pre-defined parameters. Define run-time parameters in a configuration file to spawn containers easily.

NOTE: Containator was developed with Python 3.4, though it should run on any Python 3.

Install & use

Install the package using:

pip3 install containator

Edit config file to define your containers. A sample config file can be found in the source distribution, or downloaded from the source repository.

Either provide a config file path on the command line with -c argument or let the application read config files at the following default locations. All locations are tried in order and definitions from latter files override previous definitions.

• /etc/containator.conf

• ~/.config/containator.conf

• ~/.containator.conf

After they are configured, individual containers are started by providing their name on the command line, for example:

containator firefox
