🥅 Net Tools In A Container

A collection of Linux network tools in a docker container. No mater what host system you're using, have a consistent CLI experience.

Setup

Install

Build locally (better if you want to customise the image but remember to rebuild periodically for updates):

docker build --no-cache -t local/net-tools .

Or use a prebuilt image:

docker pull maxmilton/net-tools

Shell aliases

TIP: Change local/net-tools to maxmilton/net-tools if you use the prebuilt image.

For fish shell run these commands or add them to a one-time config file:

abbr --add nt 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools'
abbr --add curl 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools curl'
abbr --add drill 'docker run -ti --rm local/net-tools drill'
abbr --add htop 'docker run -ti --rm --pid=host local/net-tools htop'
abbr --add iperf 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host local/net-tools iperf'
abbr --add jq 'docker run -ti --rm --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools jq'
abbr --add mtr 'docker run -ti --rm local/net-tools mtr'
abbr --add nmap 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools nmap'
abbr --add ncat 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools ncat'
abbr --add nping 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host local/net-tools nping'
abbr --add ssh 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host --volume="$HOME"/.ssh:/root/.ssh:ro --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools ssh'
abbr --add sftp 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host --volume="$HOME"/.ssh:/root/.ssh:ro --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools sftp'
abbr --add scp 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host --volume="$HOME"/.ssh:/root/.ssh:ro --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools scp'
abbr --add tcpdump 'docker run -ti --rm --network=host --volume="$PWD":/data local/net-tools tcpdump'
abbr --add whois 'docker run -ti --rm local/net-tools whois'
