• Monitoring symfony messenger listening to the worker events

• Set up a multi-container app with docker compose

  Most of the newer versions of Docker Desktop already comes with docker compose command, although, you can always check the installation instructions at their official GitHub repository. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• We Should Do Better Job of Visualizing Codebase

  Let's take an example - let's go to docker-compose repo page in Github and try to make sense of it. The first thing you gonna see there is: Looks impressive isn't it? Just another list of folder names and files which gives us only one idea - the project does consist of folders and files. Awesome thing, at list I know now that it doesn't consist of dragons and wizards, that is something which helps me as an... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: A Better Docker Compose?

  > Docker compose is a dead end AFAIK .. What? I'm not involved and don't follow closely but pretty sure it's about as dead as docker itself. I.e. Not dead.

• Create a minimalist OS using Docker Containers and Hashicorp Packer

  I am already using Hashicorp Packer at work and for personal projects and I wanted to test This idea out by wrapping it a single Packer Template file.

• After self-hosting my email for twenty-three years I have thrown in the towel. The oligopoly has won.

  And while it is a slight increase in complexity, it can be an overall net gain in functionality, configurability and reliability. Much like Packer is far more reliable and practical than manually making VM images sitting in front of a terminal, even though making the initial configuration takes some time.

• Customized Ubuntu Images using Packer + QEMU + Cloud-Init & UEFI bootloading

  Hashicorp Packer provides a nice wrapper / abstraction over the QEMU in order to boot the image and use it to set it up on first-boot. Instead of writing really long commands in order to boot up the image using QEMU, Packer provided a nice Configuration Template in a more Readable fashion. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• The journey of sharing a wired USB printer over the network

  Packer seemed like the perfect tool for the job. I have never used it before and wanted to get familiar with the tool. It doesn't come with ARM support out of the box, but there are two community projects to fill that niche. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
