strongloop/strongbox repository overview

⁠strongbox

Linux VMs for testing:

• ubuntu1204
• ubuntu1404
• centos65

Docker images for disposable dev/test environments:

• strongloop/strongbox:node (strongloop/strongbox:ubuntu + node from tarball)

If you are on a Mac you're using boot2docker for Docker support. You'll find this useful to put into your ~/.bashrc:

for tag in $(docker images | awk '/strongbox/ { print $2 }'); do
    alias strongbox-$tag="boot2docker ssh -t docker run -it -v \\\$SSH_AUTH_SOCK:/ssh-agent -e SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/ssh-agent strongloop/strongbox:$tag"
done
