Konstantin Köhring 6c70d7c75f Fix Python packaging for Python 3.12 (#79)
* Translate setup.py to pyproject.toml

* Introduce PEP518 by using Poetry as package manager
* Introduce PEP402-ish package structure
* Remove requirements.txt and setup.py
* Update Dockerfile and Docs for new packaging method

* Bump dependencies, remove six

# docker-autocompose
Generates a docker-compose yaml definition from a docker container.
Required Modules:
* [pyaml](https://pypi.python.org/project/pyaml/)
* [docker](https://pypi.python.org/project/docker)
For building this project [poetry](https://python-poetry.org/) is required. Install it with the package manager of your OS or if that's impossible with `pip`.
Install them:
poetry install
Example Usage:
poetry run autocompose <container ids>
Generate a compose file for multiple containers together:
poetry run autocompose apache-test mysql-test
The script defaults to outputting to compose file version 3, but use "-v 1" to output to version 1:
poetry run autocompose -v 1 apache-test
Outputs a docker-compose compatible yaml structure:
[docker-compose reference](https://docs.docker.com/compose/)
[docker-compose yaml file specification](https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/)
While experimenting with various docker containers from the Hub, I realized that I'd started several containers with complex options for volumes, ports, environment variables, etc. and there was no way I could remember all those commands without referencing the Hub page for each image if I needed to delete and re-create the container (for updates, or if something broke).
With this tool, I can easily generate docker-compose files for managing the containers that I've set up manually.
## Native installation
System-wide installation is discouraged. If you really need to, you can run `pip install --user --break-system-packages .` (use at your own discretion).
There are unofficial packages available in the Arch User Repository:
* [Stable](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/docker-autocompose)
* [Development (follows the master branch)](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/docker-autocompose-git)
**AUR packages are provided by a third party and are not tested or updated by the maintainer(s) of the docker-autocompose project.**
## Docker Usage
You can use this tool from a docker container by either cloning this repo and building the image or using the [automatically generated image on GitHub](https://github.com/Red5d/docker-autocompose/pkgs/container/docker-autocompose)
Pull the image from GitHub (supports both x86 and ARM)
docker pull ghcr.io/red5d/docker-autocompose:latest
Use the new image to generate a docker-compose file from a running container or a list of space-separated container names or ids:
docker run --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock ghcr.io/red5d/docker-autocompose <container-name-or-id> <additional-names-or-ids>...
To print out all containers in a docker-compose format:
docker run --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock ghcr.io/red5d/docker-autocompose $(docker ps -aq)
## Contributing
When making changes, please validate the output from the script by writing it to a file (docker-compose.yml or docker-compose.yaml) and running "docker-compose config" in the same folder with it to ensure that the resulting compose file will be accepted by docker-compose.
