Indie - Docker command execution

Indie is a small binary which allows you to execute a command inside a container. Its main usage is to implement the pattern of build container for your project without having to create a Makefile or something else.

Installation

Simply download the binary from GitHub and add it to your /usr/local/bin directory.

$ curl -L "https://github.com/jlrigau/indie/releases/download/v0.3.0/indie-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/indie && \
  chmod +x /usr/local/bin/indie

Usage

Add a YAML file named indie.yml in your repository in which you have to indicate the image to use for building your application.

For example, if you want to build a Go application using the official Go image, you have to add this line in the configuration file.

image: golang:latest

For building a Go application it is important to well manage your GOPATH and you can do that by using a specific workspace by adding a new property in your configuration file.

workspace: /go/src/github.com/jlrigau/indie

If you need to add specific environment variable to your build container you have also the ability to add them to the configuration file using an environment bloc.

environment:
  - "GOOS=linux"
  - "GOARCH=amd64"

Build

You can build Indie by using Indie of course!

Firstly you have to install dependencies with Glide.

$ indie glide install

And then build the application.

$ indie go build
