hocker-1.0.5: Interact with the docker registry and generate nix build instructions

hocker is a suite of command line utilities and a library for:

  • fetching a docker image
  • fetching a layer of an image
  • fetching an image's configuration
  • fetching a docker registry image manifest
  • generating nix build instructions from a registry image manifest

The motivation for this tool came from a need to fetch docker image artifacts from a docker registry without the stock docker tooling that is designed to only work with the docker daemon.

These tools only work with version 2 of the docker registry and docker version (>=) 1.10.

For a complete set of usage examples please see the project's README.md.
