  How do you manage your containers?

    I have a git repo with some directory convention and bash scripts. Ex stop is just

    #!/bin/bash
    name=synapse
    docker stop $name
    docker rm $name
    

    etc. depending on what actions I need to do against container I have bash script for that and if I need to perform such action on other container I just copy paste and change name variable. So I pull this repo to my container host and just type ./bin/synapse/stop and I stop synapse.

    Hope that makes sense.

      Have you considered replace the name with input from stdin? So instead of name=synapse you could do name=$1 and have one script to use for all containers.

        yeah but I don’t mind having duplicated scripts, it’s just easier to go to single script and don’t have to worry about everything else, I keep them like bin/synapse/run, bin/synapse/stop, bin/synapse/logs etc. What I haven’t figured out is better way to keep all ports in one place instead of ports.md file but on the other hand it’s not like I have thousands of containers running.
