# prezto docker container
|
||
|
|
||
|
This branch contains a Dockerfile and a Makefile that hopefully may
|
||
|
prove helpful for prezto development.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The idea is to have a totally independendn and isolated environemnet
|
||
|
in which to quickly make changes to either prezto-core or any plugin
|
||
|
that may bein development, enabling automated testing and even
|
||
|
continuous integration.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The container is a basic install of alpine linux, so the image
|
||
|
download is reasonably small
|
||
|
|
||
|
On the container we have a few utilities and additionalsoftware that
|
||
|
prezto has core support for
|
||
|
|
||
|
you can check it out in a snap by doing:
|
||
|
|
||
|
docker pull hlecuanda/prezto-dev:latest
|
||
|
|
||
|
once you have the image, create a container from it with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
docker run -it --rm -h prezto hlecuanda/prezto-dev:latest
|
||
|
|
||
|
that will set you on a prompt withing the container with a
|
||
|
vanilla install of prezto.
|
||
|
|
||
|
a development and testing run can be achieved by mounting the stuff
|
||
|
you're working on to the image's filesystem:
|
||
|
|
||
|
docker run -it --rm -h prezto \
|
||
|
-v /local/path:/home/prezto \
|
||
|
-v /local/path/zdotdir:/home/preztoa \
|
||
|
-v /local/module-dev-src:/home/prezto/.zprezto/modules/yourmodulea \
|
||
|
hlecuanda/prezto-dev:latest
|
||
|
|
||
|
the third volume mapping is particularly interesting. you can
|
||
|
develop on your own machine and environnmen, and when spinning up the
|
||
|
container, your actual source is already in-plase asif installed on a
|
||
|
vanilla prezto install.
|
||
|
|
||
|
keep in mind that the container are ephemeral, unless you remove the
|
||
|
--rm option which will create new containers each time you run the
|
||
|
command, but the changes to the filesystemwill persist on a container
|
||
|
file that you can later spin up again to re use.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I have found epehermeral containers to be most useful since you get an
|
||
|
untainted, pristine environment for testing every time you spin up the
|
||
|
container.
