Slacker Docker Image

[kamermans]

Thanks for the nifty Slack client!

I suppose this is an enhancement, but if you have Docker installed, you can run Slacker like this without installing anything:

docker run -v $HOME/.slack_token:/root/.slack_token -ti kamermans/slacker

https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/kamermans/slacker/

It comes with the latest dev-master code and ncurses, etc, bundled.

It's a total waste of space if you don't have any other Ubuntu 14.04-based Docker images, but if you do it's a small download.

Now I can Slack from a CoreOS box :)

Here's the Dockerfile if you want it:

FROM ubuntu:14.04
LABEL \
        Description="Slacker"

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
        php5-cli \
        && apt-get clean

COPY ncurses.so /usr/lib/php5/20121212/ncurses.so
RUN echo "extension=ncurses.so" >> /etc/php5/cli/php.ini

COPY slacker.php /usr/bin/slacker
RUN chmod +x /usr/bin/slacker

CMD /usr/bin/slacker

I built ncurses in a Docker container and copied it out so I can include it without installing any of that junk in the actual image.
