Observatory

A docker-compose reloader for git projects

About

A helper for restarting docker containers on github repo updates.

Observatory checks a given git repository for updates on a specific branch. On a new commit Observatory stops your desired docker-compose application, pulls the repository and rebuilds/restarts your docker-compose application.

Installation

Observatory uses docker-compose (docker-compose is required):

git clone https://github.com/FireboltCasters/Observator

Setup - Quick start

After the installation, you can set your variables and start using it. Here are the most important variables to be configured in the .env file

nano .env

#Repo informations
