It is sometimes handy to grab the name of the Docker image that was just generated. Let's say ou needed the image name so you can feed it into another script that you have. The command ufo docker name
returns the image of the most recently built Docker image.
Examples¶ ↑
ufo docker build # stores the docker image name in the .ufo/data folder ufo docker name # fetches image name from .ufo/data folder
An example image name would look something like this: tongueroo/demo-ufo:ufo-2018-02-15T19-29-06-88071f5
Note, the .ufo/data
folder is an internal data folder and it's structure can change in future releases.
If you want to generate a brand new name for whatever purpose, you can use the --generate
flag. The generate does not write to the .ufo/data
folder. It only generates a fresh name to stdout. If you run it multiple times, it will generate new names. You can notice this by seeing that the timestamp will always update:
ufo docker name --generate # example: tongueroo/demo-ufo:ufo-2018-02-15T10-00-00-88071f5 ufo docker name --generate # example: tongueroo/demo-ufo:ufo-2018-02-15T10-00-08-88071f5 ufo docker name --generate # example: tongueroo/demo-ufo:ufo-2018-02-15T10-00-16-88071f5
