Useful Docker Scripts
Move beyond the basics of docker run and unlock the true potential of your containerized environments. If you've ever found yourself repeatedly typing the same complex commands or manually managing multi-container applications, you know there has to be a more efficient way. This book is your guide to that path, a practical, hands-on compendium of useful scripts designed to automate the routine and complex tasks you face every day. It transforms tedious, error-prone manual processes into single, reliable commands, turning you from a Docker user into a master of Docker automation.
This collection of ready-to-use solutions tackles real-world challenges, providing complete, working scripts for everything from container updates to full-stack application deployments. Learn to write intelligent scripts that gracefully stop containers, automate the backup and restore of critical data volumes, and dynamically provision development environments. Dive into advanced techniques for creating optimized Dockerfiles, managing networks and secrets securely, and building powerful CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions. Each chapter not only provides a script you can use immediately but also breaks down how it works, empowering you to adapt and extend these solutions for your unique requirements.
Whether you're a developer seeking a one-command setup for your local environment, a system administrator automating maintenance, or a DevOps professional building robust pipelines, this book provides the tools you need. Progress from simple shell scripts to sophisticated Python automation that interacts directly with the Docker API. This is not just a reference of commands; it's a toolkit for building a faster, safer, and more efficient workflow. Stop typing and start scripting.
