I’ve pushed version 1.0.0 of Docker spoon. I moved the version to 1.0 for a few reasons – the release is pretty significant:

• This release pulls in a version of docker-api (0.17) which is not backward compatible with older docker versions. If you need to run with older versions of Docker, use 0.8.x.
• I’ve added a ton of test coverage using cucumber and aruba. The tests require a local docker daemon but otherwise should be portable. This is the most thorough coverage spoon has ever had.
• The original framework used to build spoon – methadone – has been completely removed. This was done because it was getting in the way of setting up a correct default / config file / command line argument parsing hierarchy.

So what’s new?

• New commands including --kill and --restart to ease stopping spoon containers without destroying them or having to use the docker cli.
• Support for config/cli defined port specifications both for docker-forwarded ports or ssh-forwarded ports. This supports both dynamic and 1:1 port mappings for docker ports.
• Privileged mode support when creating new instances.
• Config support for a variety of docker params including:
  • cpu shares
  • memory limits
  • dns servers
  • volume mappings
  • privileged mode

The release has been tested against Docker 1.4 and is known not to work with docker 1.2.
