Minimal Alpine-based Docker image with curated CLI tools for shell scripting and automation
146
This repository provides a minimal Alpine-based Docker image bundling a curated set of CLI tools for shell scripting, automation and CI steps, so common tasks don't require pulling a different single-purpose image every time.
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
bash | a proper shell |
curl | HTTP requests |
jq | JSON processing |
yq | YAML processing |
coreutils | full GNU utilities (busybox's are too limited) |
ca-certificates | trusted TLS out of the box |
bind-tools | dig, nslookup and friends |
Runs as a non-root user (toolbox, uid 1000) by default.
docker build -t alexanderwolz/toolbox .docker pull alexanderwolz/toolbox:3.21.7FROM alexanderwolz/toolbox:3.21.7
