Welcome to Docker-Fabric’s documentation!

Docker-Fabric provides a set of utilities for controlling Docker on a local test machine or a remote production environment. It combines Fabric with extensions to docker-py in Docker-Map.

The project is hosted on GitHub.

Features

• Integration of Docker-Map’s container structure into Fabric deployments.
• Complements Docker API commands with command line shortcuts.
• Uses Fabric’s SSH tunnel for connecting to the Docker Remote API.
• Fabric-like console feedback for Docker image and container management.
