NAME
Rex::Box::Docker - Rex/Boxes Docker Module

DESCRIPTION
This is a Rex/Boxes module to use Docker Images. You need to have dockerd installed.

EXAMPLES
To use this module inside your Rexfile you can use the following commands.

 use Rex::Commands::Box;
 set box => "Docker";

 task "prepare_box", sub {
    box {
       my ($box) = @_;

       $box->name("mybox");
       $box->url("http://box.rexify.org/box/ubuntu-server-12.10-amd64.tar.gz");
       $box->url("debian:latest");

       $box->network(1 => {
          name => "default",
       });

       $box->auth(
          user => "root",
          password => "box",
       );

       $box->setup("setup_task");
    };
 };

If you want to use a YAML file you can use the following template.

 type: Docker
 vms:
    vmone:
       url: debian:latest

 use Rex::Commands::Box init_file => "file.yml";

 task "prepare_vms", sub {
    boxes "init";
 };
