What

This is for sharing remote docker-machines across dev team

Why

Because we want to access same remote server created by docker-machine create from different machines and we want to do it right now, while proper implementation is in progress

Sharing private keys is bad idea, don't do it in production. This solution is for testing purposes only.

Installation

npm install -g docker-machine-config-dump

Usage

export

docker-machine-config-dump > ~/Downloads/docker-machines.json

import

envsubst '$HOME' < ~/Downloads/docker-machines.json | docker-machine-config-dump

few notes:

• on mac in order to have envsubst command you need to install gettext utils:

brew install gettext
brew link --force gettext

• if you already have machines, it might be a good idea to backup your certs before importing someone else's machines:

docker-machine-config-dump > ~/backup-docker-machine.json

then if you want to restore them later just import from ~/backup-docker-machine.json:

docker-machine-config-dump < ~/backup-docker-machine.json
