Management commands for working with a particular docker task
Description
Methods for working with a particular docker task.  Task objects
are returned by using $task$get to fetch an existing task
by name or id, or $tasks from a
docker_service object representing a docker service.
Details
Below is reference documentation for all methods for version '1.29' of the docker API - other versions are available. This documentation is automatically generated from docker's API schema, and so inaccuracies may exist between it and stevedore's interface (especially references to JSON objects). Please report any documentation that might be improved at https://github.com/richfitz/stevedore/issues
Methods
- help
- Display help for this object - Usage: - help(help_type = getOption("help_type"))- Arguments: - help_type: Passed to- utils::help, can be one of "text", "html" or "pdf" (or an abbreviation). By default it uses the value- getOption("help_type")and should follow the same behaviour as other R help (e.g., using "?")
 
- id
- Return the tasks's id - Usage: - id() 
- inspect
- Return detailed information about this task - Usage: - inspect(reload = TRUE) - Arguments: - reload: Logical scalar, indicating if the information should be refreshed from the daemon. This is useful to set to- FALSEafter a task has been removed.
 
- task_logs
- Get task logs. Get - stdoutand- stderrlogs from a task.- Note: This endpoint works only for services with the - json-fileor- journaldlogging drivers.- Usage: - task_logs(details = NULL, follow = NULL, stdout = TRUE, stderr = TRUE, since = NULL, timestamps = NULL, tail = NULL, stream = stdout())- Arguments: - details: Show task context and extra details provided to logs.
- follow: Return the logs as a stream.- This will return a - 101HTTP response with a- Connection: upgradeheader, then hijack the HTTP connection to send raw output. For more information about hijacking and the stream format, hrefhttps://docs.docker.com/engine/api/1.29/#operation/ContainerAttachsee the documentation for the attach endpoint.
- stdout: Return logs from- stdout
- stderr: Return logs from- stderr
- since: Only return logs since this time, as a UNIX timestamp
- timestamps: Add timestamps to every log line
- tail: Only return this number of log lines from the end of the logs. Specify as an integer or- allto output all log lines.
- stream: The stream to send output to. Options here are (1) a connection object (e.g.- stdout(),- stderr()or a writable open file connection object, (2) a scalar character indicating a filename to write to, or (3)- FALSEor- NULLto disable any output.
 
- reload
- Refresh infomation on the task from the server, returning - $inspect()invisibly.- Usage: - reload() 
- service
- Return parent service - Usage: - service() 
- state
- Retrieve task state (running, shutdown, etc). Richer information about task status is available as - $inspect()$status- Usage: - state(reload = TRUE) - Arguments: - reload: Logical scalar, indicating if the information should be refreshed from the daemon. This is useful to set to- FALSEafter a task has been removed.
