We need to install docker helpers on the docker server

[timlinux]

cd /usr/local/
git clone git://github.com/kartoza/docker-helpers.git
echo export "PATH=\$PATH:/usr/local/docker-helpers" | sudo tee --append vim /etc/bash.bashrc 

Verification:

dps

Expected output (will vary depending on which docker containers are running):

timlinux@docker:/data/jenkins.inasafe.org$ dps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                       COMMAND                CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                    NAMES

@hvisage this is for you but I can't assign it to you until you accept you invitation to this repo.

Try now to assign it to me :)

Must this be ansible scripted, or just manually installed?

[timlinux]

I've already done it manually on the docker server - I wrote this ticket so that we can include this step in our standard server setup run-through. Thanks!

Please note that we have started deploying things on the docker server as we could not wait any longer for a fully automated solution to be in place so if you are testing the deployment process take care not to trash the docker KVM. :-P

Last two questions:

1. Given the "cd /usr/local" and the portion: "| sudo tee --append vim /etc/bash.bashrc"
   Why do you write/append to the file /usr/local/vim ?

2. is there a specific VERSION we need, or is the default "HEAD" good enough?
   From http://docs.ansible.com/git_module.html:

What version of the repository to check out. This can be the full 40-character SHA-1 hash, the literal string HEAD, a branch name, or a tag name.

hi

1. Given the "cd /usr/local" and the portion: "| sudo tee --append vim /etc/bash.bashrc"
   Why do you write/append to the file /usr/local/vim ?

Good catch, the vim should be removed, thanks.

2. is there a specific VERSION we need, or is the default "HEAD" good enough?

Yes from HEAD / current latest version is good thanks.
