Forward input/output from docker containers to your browser
npm install docker-browser-console
To quickly try out a demo clone this repo and
npm install
npm run demo
First browserify the following code to bundle.js to create a terminal in your browser
var docker = require('docker-browser-console')
var websocket = require('websocket-stream')
// create a stream for any docker image
// use docker({style:false}) to disable default styling
// all other options are forwarded to the term.js instance
var terminal = docker()
// connect to a docker-browser-console server
terminal.pipe(websocket('ws://localhost:10000')).pipe(terminal)
// append the terminal to a DOM element
terminal.appendTo(document.body)You can add that to an index.html page by doing
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script src="bundle.js">
</body>
</html>Then create a server that will host our docker containers
var ws = require('ws')
var websocket = require('websocket-stream')
var docker = require('docker-browser-console')
var server = new ws.Server({port:10000})
server.on('connection', function(socket) {
socket = websocket(socket)
// this will spawn the container and forward the output to the browser
socket.pipe(docker('mafintosh/dev')).pipe(socket)
})Now simply run the server and open index.html in your browser.
You should be able to see a terminal running my dev image
