Agent for term.js to talk to a Docker container TTY over a WebSocket
git clone https://github.com/rancherio/console-agent
cd console-agent
npm install
Start up the agent on a docker host:
./agent.js [--port <num>] [--bind <ip address>] [--docker <url for docker API>] [--key <PEM-encoded string or path to JWT public key file>]
Create an exec request through the cattle API to get a JSON Web Token:
curl -X POST 'http://cattle-host:8080/v1/containers/<container_id>?exec'
Response:
{
...
}
And connect a websocket to the host and port specified:
var socket = new WebSocket('ws://<host>:<port>/?token=<JWT string>');
var term = new Terminal({ // from term.js
cols: 80,
rows: 24
});
term.on('data', function(data) {
socket.send(btoa(data));
});
socket.onmessage = function(message) {
term.write(atob(message.data));
});
socket.onclose = function() {
term.destroy();
}
term.open();
