docker-machine-add-ssh 1.7

Adds docker-machine ssh configuration into your personal ssh configuration

DOCKER-MACHINE ADD SSH

This is a command line program to allow you to use ordinary ssh commands with Docker Machine rather than use docker-machine ssh or docker-machine scp.

USAGE

usage: docker-machine-add-ssh [-h] [-r] [-d] [-f] [-B] [-S] name

Adds docker-machine ssh configuration to your personal ssh configuration.
Normally, you ssh to a docker-machine using command "docker-machine ssh
<mach>" but after running this utility once for the specified machine, you can
then on use ssh in the normal way, e.g. "ssh <mach>". Other standard programs
such as scp, sftp, rsync, and anything else that relies on them or normal ssh
can then also be used to that docker-machine.

positional arguments:
  name            docker machine name

optional arguments:
  -h, --help      show this help message and exit
  -r, --replace   do not fail if host entry already exists, just replace it
  -d, --delete    just delete any existing host entry
  -f, --files     get parameters directly from files rather than via docker-
                  machine command
  -B, --nobackup  do not create a backup file
  -S, --nostrict  disable strict host key check

Note you can set default starting arguments in ~/.config/docker-machine-add-
ssh-flags.conf.

EXAMPLES

$ tree foodir
foodir
├── a
└── b

# Create a docker machine:
$ docker-machine create vb1
...

# Login to that machine:
$ docker-machine ssh vb1
...
exit

# Copy a directory and it's files to the new machine the docker-machine way:
$ docker-machine scp -r foodir vb1:
b             100$    0     0.0KB/s   00:00
a             100%    0     0.0KB/s   00:00

# Or, use docker-machine rsync mode:
$ docker-machine scp -r -d foodir vb1:
sending incremental file list
foodir/a
              0 100%    0.00kB/s    0:00:00 (xfr#1, to-chk=1/3)
foodir/b
              0 100%    0.00kB/s    0:00:00 (xfr#2, to-chk=0/3)

# Instead, do all this normally, after executing docker-machine-add-ssh:
$ docker-machine-add-ssh vb1
vb1 entry added to /home/mark/.ssh/config.

# Login to that machine normally. Be sure to do this first time to clear
# the host check as seen in this example:
$ ssh vb1
The authenticity of host '192.168.99.100 (192.168.99.100)' can't be established.
ECDSA key fingerprint is SHA256:Gya8jUcRhXlO/IkkTicrbLEPmMV0V5uOALB2Y5kJUCc.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes
Warning: Permanently added '192.168.99.107' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.

docker@vb1:~$ exit

# Now you can just use normal scp or rsync:
$ scp -pr foodir vb1:
b             100%    0     0.0KB/s   00:00    
a             100%    0     0.0KB/s   00:00 

$ rsync -av foodir vb1:
sending incremental file list

sent 100 bytes  received 17 bytes  234.00 bytes/sec
total size is 0  speedup is 0.00

# Finished with the machine so delete all trace of it:
$ docker-machine rm vb1
About to remove vb1
WARNING: This action will delete both local reference and remote instance.
Are you sure? (y/n): y
Successfully removed vb1

$ docker-machine-add-ssh -d vb1
vb1 entry deleted from /home/mark/.ssh/config.

DEFAULT ARGUMENTS

You can add default arguments to a personal configuration file ~/.config/docker-machine-add-ssh-flags.conf. If that file exists then each line of arguments will be concatenated and automatically prepended to your docker-machine-add-ssh command line arguments. Comments in the file (i.e. starting with "#") are ignored.

This allow you to set default preferred starting arguments to docker-machine-add-ssh. Type docker-machine-add-ssh -h to see the arguments supported. E.g. echo "-r" >~/.config/docker-machine-add-ssh-flags.conf to make docker-machine-add-ssh always replace existing host entries even if they already exist.

INSTALLATION

Ensure docker-machine is installed.

Arch users can install docker-machine-add-ssh from the AUR.

Alternately, do the following to install from the source repository.

$ git clone http://github.com/bulletmark/docker-machine-add-ssh
$ cd docker-machine-add-ssh

# Install globally ..
$ sudo pip3 install -U .

# Or, install for yourself only ..
$ pip3 install -U .

UPGRADE

$ cd docker-machine-add-ssh  # Source dir, as above
$ git pull
