devvm layer

Make image layers of your own, or change this folder’s VM’s layers

Synopsis

Make image layers of your own, which are scripts in ~/.config/devvm/layers that an image runs on top of base, or add layers to this folder’s VM and take them out. An image names them as it names devvm’s built-in layers, bottom first, such as docker+NAME, and a new VM gets them with –layers.

devvm layer [flags]

Examples

  devvm layer new mailpit  # start a layer named mailpit
  devvm layer add docker   # make this folder's VM again with the docker layer added
  devvm layer rm docker    # make this folder's VM again without it

Options

  -h, --help   help for layer

Options inherited from parent commands

      --no-input   never ask, and fail where devvm would ask, naming the flag that answers it
  -v, --verbose    show the output of the commands devvm runs instead of a status line
