Waggle

https://beekeeper.herokuapp.com/projects/pybee/waggle/shield

Prepare and upload Docker images for use by BeeKeeper.

Quickstart

Create a directory, and in that directory place a Dockerfile, along with any files required by the Dockerfile.

Optionally, you can also put an ecs.json file in the directory. The ecs.json file should contains a JSON definition of any ECR container settings that you want task to have. For example, if you wanted to specify a particular memory and CPU usage profile for the task, you would specify:

{
    memory: 50,
    cpu: 8192
}

These settings will be used as overrides for the default container settings used by BeeKeeper.

Then, create a file named .env in your current working directory that contains the following content:

AWS_REGION=<Your AWS region (e.g., us-west-2)>
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<Your AWS access key>
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<Your AWS secret access key>

Then, run:

$ waggle <path to docker image directory>

This will:

  • Log into AWS ECR
  • Find (or create) an AWS ECR repository for your image
  • Build the Docker image
  • Tag the image for publication to AWS ECR
  • Push the image to AWS ECR
  • Register (or update) an AWS ECS task that uses the image.

If your Docker image is contained in a directory called myimage, your BeeKeeper configuration will now be able to reference a task image of myimage.

Testing

Before you waggle your task, you're probably going to want to test it.

  • To build an image locally:

    $ cd <directory with a Dockerfile in it>
    $ docker build -t <namespace>/<image> .
    
  • To run an image locally:

    $ docker run <namespace>/<image>
    

    If your docker image requires environment variables (all the Beekeeper ones do), you may find it easier to put all those variables in a file (e.g., .env), and run:

    $ docker run --env-file=.env <namespace>/<image>
    

    To temporarily define a variable for the duration of the test:

    $ VARIABLE=value docker run -e VARIABLE <namespace>/<image>
    

    To mount a local directory as the source code directory:

    $ docker run -v `pwd`:/app/src <namespace>/<image>
    
  • To start the container with an interactive prompt:

    $ docker run -it --env-file=.env <namespace>/<image> /bin/bash

  • To clean up afterwards, run:

    $ docker ps -a
    

    to list all the containers that have been executed, and:

    $ docker rm $(docker ps -aq)
    

    to remove all the stale containers.
