Console - Developer Tool of the Week

![dockly-demo-2](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/316371/25682867/c5212216-3027-11e7-8f36-72d38516d2af.gif)

# Install
Install the API module as a dependency in your project so you can easily use it to query Operations Orchestration REST API

```javascript
npm install -g dockly
```

# Usage

Just fire up dockly and it will automatically connect to your localhost docker daemon through the unix socket:

```
dockly
```

## Command line options:

It's also possible to provide command line options for dockly to customize the docker connection

| Param | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| -s or --socketPath | string | Docker socket to connect to |
| -H or --host | string | Remote docker daemon host to connect to |
| -P or --port | string | Remote docker port to connect to |
| -T or --protocol | `http` \| `https` \| `ssh` | Remote docker protocol to connect to |
| --containerFilters | string | String to apply to filter shown containers |
| -h or --help | null | Display help |
| -v or --version | null | Display version information |

### `--containerFilters`

This is a string that could be used to filter the shown containers;
its format is in the x-www-form-urlencoded style and the filters you could apply are listed here: [https://docs.docker.com/engine/api/v1.37/#operation/ContainerList](https://docs.docker.com/engine/api/v1.37/#operation/ContainerList)

Example: `--containerFilters="name=test&status=running"` to only show *running* container which name match *test*.

# Docker Support

## Run from docker

You can run dockly using docker:

```
docker run -it --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock lirantal/dockly
```

## Build

```
$ docker build -t dockly .

$ docker run -it --rm --name dockly -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock dockly
```

# FAQ

1. Unsupported Node.js version

If you're getting the following error in your CLI:
```
root@neo:~# dockly
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/dockly/src/screen.js:36
constructor (utils = new Map()) {
^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token =
at exports.runInThisContext (vm.js:53:16)
at Module._compile (module.js:374:25)
```

Or this kind of error:
```
Trace: TypeError: Object.values is not a function
at screen.toggleMode (/home/vokiel/.nvm/versions/node/v6.11.1/lib/node_modules/dockly/src/screen.js:149:35)
at Screen.screen.key (/home/vokiel/.nvm/versions/node/v6.11.1/lib/node_modules/dockly/src/screen.js:190:12)
at Screen.EventEmitter._emit
(/home/vokiel/.nvm/versions/node/v6.11.1/lib/node_modules/dockly/node_modules/blessed/lib/events.js:98:20)
```

This is most likely because you're using an unsupported Node.js version.
Dockly requires Node.js v7.6 and above

2. PuTTY displays garbled text

Follow the steps [in this comment](https://github.com/lirantal/dockly/issues/50#issuecomment-536190949) to enable VT100 support on the settings for the window

3. Icons not working properly

set `LANG` and `LC_ALL` to c.UTF-8 like so
```bash
export LANG=C.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8
```
