dockerex

Dockerex is an Elixir library that provides a lightweight client for interacting with Docker's Remote API. It enables developers to programmatically manage Docker containers, images, and other resources from Elixir applications with support for secure connections.

Key Features

• SSL/TLS Support — Securely connect to Docker hosts or Swarm managers using SSL/TLS certificates
• Unix Socket Connection — Connect to Docker Engine via Unix sockets for local communication
• Lightweight Design — Minimal abstraction layer that requires explicit endpoint and parameter specification
• Docker API Compatibility — Tested against Docker Remote API v1.24 for reliable operation
• Flexible Configuration — Easy host and SSL configuration through Elixir's application config

Philosophy

Dockerex follows a minimalistic approach, providing just enough abstraction to interact with Docker's API while maintaining transparency and control for developers.
