Leider

A cli to manage services for apps in Docker for local development.

Services

PostgreSQL, Redis, Memcached and RabbitMQ.

Features

• Manages services in Docker.
• Exports connection URLs for your app.

What is this good for?

• You don't have a Dockerized app (so docker-compose is not an option). Think Heroku, etc.
• You have some apps that need older versions of PostgreSQL, etc.

Installation

$ pip install leider

or

$ pipx install leider

Usage

Create a leider.yaml in your app home. Example:

$ cat leider.yaml
db:
  image: postgres:9.6-alpine
cache:
  image: redis:3.0-alpine
queue:
  image: rabbitmq:3-alpine

Now you can start using the Leider cli.

$ leider
Usage: leider [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Advanced

Leider keeps track of the Docker containers by storing a yaml file for each app in ~/.leider.
