grip-docker

Run grip Markdown renderer in a docker container

Why

grip is a very useful tool to locally render README.md and other markdown content just as it appears on Github.

This project bundles grip, along with text mode browsers lynx and elinks in a relatively small, Alpine Linux based Docker container.

Installation

For basic usage, no installation is necessary, the container is available from Docker Hub.

To use the grip-docker shell script, copy it to a folder within your $PATH:

cp grip-docker ~/bin/

Or use the Makefile:

  • make install to install to /usr/local/bin/grip-docker
  • make install PREFIX=$HOME/.local to install to $HOME/.local/bin/grip-docker
  • make uninstall to uninstall

Usage

You can run it as a docker container or use the ./grip-docker bash script:

docker run

docker run -v 'path/to/project' kbai/grip

grip-docker

grip-docker --elinks README.md opens the rendered README.md in the elinks browser in the container and set up the terminal correctly.

grip-docker -b README.md opens the rendered README.md in a web browser on the host.

In addition to the option grip supports, grip-docker has these additional options:

  --lynx            Use lynx text browser
  --elinks          Use elinks text browser
  --ports=FROM:TO   Use first free port in range. Default: '6419:6429'
  -d --detach       Run in background
