docker

The docker spell forks the docker CLI (and hadolint) to build images and lint Dockerfiles. docker-build-check runs the builder's --check preflight without producing an image.

Runtime name: docker (source spells/docker/)

Version probe (docker): docker --version

Version probe (hadolint): hadolint --version

Passing arguments to ops

Every op is invoked as docker["<op>"](ctx, opts?). The first argument is the target's context, which is what carries the execution environment; the optional options map shapes the command itself:

Working directory and environment are NOT options: they ride the context, as docker["<op>"](ctx.withCwd("sub")) and docker["<op>"](ctx.withEnv({"CGO_ENABLED": "0"})). Only the context reaches the cache key, so an option-table cwd or env would change what the tool did while the key said otherwise - passing either as an option is an error.

Charms (the :charm suffix, e.g. magus run test:rw) are orthogonal: they patch the base argv, while these options add to it. See Charms.

docker-build

Command: docker build

Example

// docker-build's base command is just `docker build`, so pass the image tag and
// build context: `magus run image` forks `docker build -t app:latest .`.
import "magus";
import "magus/spell/docker";

magus\project({ "spells": [docker] });

export fun image(ctx: magus\Context, args: [str]) > void {
    docker["docker-build"](ctx, { "args": ["-t", "app:latest", "."] });
}

docker-build-check

Command: docker build --check

Example

// docker-build-check runs the builder `--check` preflight over a context without
// producing an image; pass the build context (`.`).
import "magus";
import "magus/spell/docker";

magus\project({ "spells": [docker] });

export fun image_check(ctx: magus\Context, args: [str]) > void {
    docker["docker-build-check"](ctx, { "args": ["."] });
}

docker-buildx

Command: docker buildx build

Example

// docker-buildx builds with BuildKit; pass the tag and context. Add
// "--platform", "linux/amd64,linux/arm64" to the args for a multi-platform build.
import "magus";
import "magus/spell/docker";

magus\project({ "spells": [docker] });

export fun image_buildx(ctx: magus\Context, args: [str]) > void {
    docker["docker-buildx"](ctx, { "args": ["-t", "app:latest", "."] });
}

docker-run

--rm is baked in: an op that leaves containers behind turns a repeated target into a disk leak. The caller supplies mounts, workdir, image and command through args.

Command: docker run --rm

hadolint

Lints the Dockerfile, reporting in the GNU diagnostic format the tool declares in mgs_getTools, so magus reads each finding's file, line and rule rather than its prose.

Command: hadolint -f gnu Dockerfile

Example

// hadolint lints the Dockerfile for common mistakes.
import "magus";
import "magus/spell/docker";

magus\project({ "spells": [docker] });

export fun lint(ctx: magus\Context, args: [str]) > void {
    docker["hadolint"](ctx);
}
