dcsg: A systemd service generator for docker-compose

dcsg is a command-line utility for Linux that generates systemd services for Docker Compose projects.

If you have one or more docker compose projects running on your server you might want create a systemd service for each of them.

And dcsg is here to help you with just that. Quickly create systemd services from docker-compose files.

Usage

dcsg <action> [<path-to-a-docker-compose-file>] [<docker-compose-project-name]>

Install

Register a Docker Compose project as a systemd service:

dcsg install docker-compose.yml

Uninstall

Uninstall the systemd service for the given Docker Compose project:

dcsg uninstall docker-compose.yml

Help

Show the available actions and arguments:

dcsg help

The help for a specific action:

dcsg install --help

What does dcsg do?

dcsg doesn't do much.

For the install action dcsg creates a systemd service (see: installer.go):

1. Create a systemd service definition in /etc/systemd/system/<project-name>.service
2. Execute systemctl daemon-reload, enable and start

The name of the service created will be the project name of your docker-compose project.

For the uninstall action dcsg remove the systemd service it created earlier (see: uninstaller.go):

1. Execute a systemctl stop and disable for the docker-compose service
2. Delete the systemd service definition from /etc/systemd/system/<project-name>.service
3. Execute sytemctl daemon-reload
