Usage

omni_containers: Docker container management

The omni_containers extension manages Docker container lifecycle from PostgreSQL. Requires Docker Engine API access (defaults to unix:///var/run/docker.sock).

Create and Start a Container

SELECT * FROM omni_containers.docker_container_create(
    'busybox',
    cmd  => 'echo Hello world',
    pull => true
);

Parameters: image (required), cmd, attach (default db.omni), start (default true), wait (default false), pull (default false), options (jsonb).

Container Logs

SELECT * FROM omni_containers.docker_container_logs('container_id');

Supports stdout, stderr, since, until, timestamps, tail parameters.

Execute Command in Container

SELECT * FROM omni_containers.docker_container_exec('container_id', 'ls -la');

Stop and Inspect

SELECT * FROM omni_containers.docker_container_stop('container_id');
SELECT info->'State'->'ExitCode' FROM omni_containers.docker_container_inspect('container_id') AS info;

List Docker Images

SELECT repo_tags FROM omni_containers.docker_images;

Full Workflow Example

WITH container AS (
    SELECT * FROM omni_containers.docker_container_create(
        'ghcr.io/yrashk/psql',
        cmd  => $$psql -c 'create table test ();'$$,
        wait => true, pull => true) AS id
)
SELECT
    omni_containers.docker_container_inspect(id)->'State'->'ExitCode' AS exit_code,
    omni_containers.docker_container_logs(id) AS logs
FROM container;
