dfpp - Dockerfile preprocessor
$ dfpp Dockerfile.pre > Dockerfile
# without installing run via docker:
$ docker run --rm -i -v $(pwd):/root:ro coryb/dfpp Dockerfile.pre > Dockerfile
# or alias dfpp to docker call
$ alias dfpp='docker run --rm -i -v $(pwd):/root:ro coryb/dfpp'
$ dfpp Dockerfile.pre > Dockerfile
# Dockerfile Syntax:
INCLUDE ./Dockerfile.inc
INCLUDE http://path/to/Dockerfile.inc
INCLUDE ./Dockerfile.inc http://path/to/Dockerfile.inc
INCLUDE MERGE a.inc b.inc
# include only RUN instructions
INCLUDE RUN a.inc b.inc
# include only RUN and ENV instructions
INCLUDE RUN ENV a.inc b.inc
# include only RUN and ENV instructions but merge them
INCLUDE MERGE RUN ENV a.inc b.inc
# exclude FROM instructions
INCLUDE -FROM a.inc b.inc
dfpp was written to allow simple pre-processing of Dockerfiles to add
capabilities currently unsupported by docker build.
The INCLUDE instruction is primarily useful to make Dockerfiles composible if you have wide variation in images being produced but you dont want to copy & paste common instructions. For example, if you are using docker for build isolation where you have some projects that are c++ and some that are java. Typically you would create a specific cpp-build image with all the c++ build dependencies and a java-build image with all the java build dependencies. Then you find yourself needing to build something that requires both c++ AND java, so you create a cpp-java-build image . Now you are maintaining the c++ build deps in the cpp-build and cpp-java-build image. INCLUDE allows you to maintain the build deps in a single location and simply reference that single location for both cpp-build and cpp-java-build images.
This will inline a file or uri into the Dockerfile being generated.
When including multiple Dockerfile snippets this will attempt to merge common instructions. Currently only ENV, LABEL and RUN are merged, otherwise multiple instructions will be repeated. RUN instructions are merged with "&&" while other instructions are merged with a space.
