#dokk: Docker utilities for R

Build docker images, run docker containers locally and remotely using docker-machine.

Useful for training your models in the cloud, spinning up on-demand instances and cleaning up after you are done.

Pre-requisites:

• docker (brew install docker)
• docker-machine (brew cask install docker-machine, check http://caskroom.io)

Usage

(function(machine_name) {
  # 1. Create the machine
  dokk::machine_DigitalOcean(machine_name, size="512mb")
  on.exit(dokk::machine_rm(machine_name))
  # 2. Build docker image from your Dockerfile
  dokk::build_image(machine_name, ".", intern = FALSE,
    params = productivus::pp("-t #{machine_name}-image"))
  # 3. Build a container from the image and run it!
  dokk::run_image(machine_name, productivus::pp("#{machine_name}-image"),
    command = 'echo hello world')
})("testmachine")
