elisiano/opstools repository overview

⁠opstools container

This container is aimed at ops people needing a container inside a kubernetes cluster to do some maintenance (eg: a mysqldump and write that to an s3 bucket).

It was created out of frustration of having to install the same utilities over and over again on a base image.

You can find an example kubernetes deployment on its github repo (elisiano/docker-opstools⁠), but here's an inline copy for conveniency
