baterflyrity/python-autostart repository overview

⁠Python Autostart

Docker images pack with autostart feature and preinstalled python.

Each container contains preinstalled python with tag version, e.g. baterflyrity/python-autostart:3.12 = python:3.12.

See sources at https://github.com/baterflyrity/python-autostart⁠.

⁠Add commands to autostart

Command can be added by two ways:

• update script at autostart.sh
• define environment variable AUTOSTART (: can be used to separate different commands)
• define environment variable prefixed AUTOSTART_ (: can be used to separate different commands)

⁠Usage example

Echo something on start:

docker run -it --rm -e "AUTOSTART=echo 'Hello, world!'" baterflyrity/python-autostart

Run two commands on start in container with python 3.11:

docker run -it --rm -e "AUTOSTART=echo 'Hello, world!': echo 'Still running.'" baterflyrity/python-autostart:3.11

Prestart some services via different environment variable and execute command:

docker run -it --rm -e "AUTOSTART_SERVICE1=echo 'Service 1 started.'" -e "AUTOSTART_SERVICE2=echo 'Service 2 started.'" baterflyrity/python-autostart python3 -V
