shelltips/dockerweb: Connect a browser to a docker container · GitHub

This is a proof-of-concept for attaching a web-based terminal to a live Docker container.

You'll need Docker installed and running, probably on a Linux or Mac machine (– tested with Docker Version 1.12.0-rc2-beta16).

An express app will start, connect to Docker on /var/run/docker.sock and build a minimal Alpine linux image.

Visiting http://localhost:3000/ will spin up a new Docker container and connect your browser to it. Type away!

Using node 6.2+:

npm install
node index.js
open http://localhost:3000/docker
