dockerc - compile docker images to standalone portable binaries

No more

No more docker run, no more pip install, no more npm i, just give your users executables they can run!

Usage

Install dockerc from the latest release.

# Image from docker hub
$ dockerc --image docker://oven/bun --output bun
# Image in local docker daemon storage
$ zig-out/bin/dockerc --image docker-daemon:mysherlock-image:latest --output sherlock_bin

The output binary can then be called as you would with usual binaries. You can also specify -e, and -v in the same way you would when using docker run. Networked services running inside the container can be accessed directly without having to specify -p.

Skopeo is used for loading images, for other locations refer to its documentation.
